Description
The inhibitor switch is mounted on the transmission case. It includes the electric switch plate circuit and is directly connected with the transmission lever via transmission cable. When the driver shifts the transmission lever, the contact point on the switch plate varies and the electric current process changes, and engages the gear intended by the driver. In addition, the inhibitor switch cuts off power from the circuit to prevent the motor from running if the driver attempts to start the engine from any gear positions other than P or N.
