Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock Mechanism - Description

DESCRIPTION





The Brake Transmission Shifter/Ignition Interlock (BTSI) is a electronically operated system that prevents the transmission gear shifter from being moved out of PARK without the proper driver inputs. The system also contains a solenoid that is integral to the shifter assembly.

A BTSI override (2) is provided on the inside of the shifter mechanism (1) to allow the vehicle to be shifted out of PARK in the event of an electrical failure.
