Introduction
The automatic and manual transmission units are
described in the ÔS-TYPE Sports Sedan Powertrain
IntroductionÕ Technical Guide.
J-Gate
The J-gate assembly is mounted on the
transmission tunnel by four bolts and has a
similar operating mechanism to the XJ/XK Series
vehicles. The selector gate positions are, P-R-N-D
on one side of the ÔJÕ and manual gear positions
4-3-2 on the other side. Movement of the gear
selector lever up and down these positions is
transmitted mechanically to a cable assembly
which then rotates the digital range switch on the
side of the automatic transmission housing (see
ÔS-TYPE Powertrain IntroductionÕ Technical
Guide). Movement across the gate between D and
4 operates an electrical switch (without cable
movement).
In the P position with the ignition off, the gear
selector lever is locked by a solenoid plunger
which inhibits a lock plate fixed to the selector
mechanism. When the ignition is switched on,pressing the brake pedal energises the solenoid
and releases the lock plate, allowing the selector
lever to be moved from the P position.
For NAS markets only, the J-gate slider actuator is
linked to the ignition switch barrel to provide a
mechanical interlock. The interlock lever and
cable are driven by the J-gate slider to operate a
locking plunger in the ignition barrel. If the gear
selector lever is in any position other than P, the
ignition key cannot be removed. Note when
servicing, that the interlock cable adjustment is
critical and the JTIS service instructions must be
followed. Where the interlock function is not
fitted, the interlock lever is retained without the
operating cable.
