3000GT
DESCRIPTION
Shift interlock system inhibits shift selector lever movement
from "P" to drive ranges unless brake pedal is depressed. Key
interlock system prevents ignition switch turning to LOCK position
unless shift selector lever is in "P" position.
TESTING
KEY INTERLOCK SYSTEM
1) With ignition switch in LOCK position and brake pedal
depressed, ensure selector lever cannot be moved from "P" to any other
position. Ensure selector lever button cannot be pushed. With ignition
switch in ACC position, brake pedal depressed and selector lever
button pushed, ensure selector lever can be moved from "P" position to
any other position. Ensure selector lever moves smoothly.
2) Ensure ignition key cannot be turned to LOCK position at
all selector lever positions other than "P". Ensure ignition key turns
smoothly to LOCK position when selector lever is set to "P" and
selector lever button is released. If key interlock system is not as
specified, adjust key interlock cable. See KEY INTERLOCK CABLE under
ADJUSTMENTS.
SHIFT LOCK SYSTEM
1) With ignition switch in ACC position, brake pedal released
and selector lever button pushed, ensure selector lever cannot be
moved from "P" to any other position. With ignition switch in ACC
position, brake pedal depressed and selector lever button pushed,
ensure selector lever can be moved from "P" position to any other
position.
2) With selector lever in "R" position, ignition switch in
ACC position, brake pedal released and selector button pushed, ensure
selector lever can be moved from "R" to "P" position. If shift lock
system is not as specified, adjust shift lock cable. See SHIFT LOCK
CABLE under ADJUSTMENTS.
ADJUSTMENTS
KEY INTERLOCK CABLE
3000GT
Remove front console assembly. Move selector lever to "P".
Loosen nut securing key interlock cable. Gently press lock cam "A"
down while pushing cable to take up slack. See Fig. 1. Tighten nut to

ANCHOR PINS
See BACKING PLATES .
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEMS
NOTE: Anti-lock brakes are an integral part of the brake system. It
is essential that the anti-lock brakes function properly when
brake service is performed.
Anti-lock brake systems are commonly referred to as "ABS" and
will be referred to as "ABS" throughout these guidelines. Some ABS
components also function as part of a traction control system (TCS).
WARNING: When diagnosing and servicing high pressure components,
observe safety procedures and equipment requirements
established by the vehicle manufacturer to reduce the
possibility of serious personal injury.
NOTE: Intermittent electrical conditions are often caused by a loss
of ground, poor connection, or water intrusion into the
wiring harness.

Page 204 of 1501

(1) - This condition may be normal on some vehicles equipped with
anti-lock brakes.
( 2) - Refer to OEM procedures for adjusting low fluid level.
Inspect for brake hydraulic system leaks and friction
material wear.
( 3) - This condition may indicate contaminated brake fluid.
