CAUTION
When the connector is disconnected, it is normal
for short-circuiting to occur between the connec
-
tor terminals.
•The diagnosis spring is assembled on the
SRS-ECU wiring harness-side connector. When
the ECU-side connector is connected to the
SRS-ECU wiring harness-side connector, the
diagnosis spring is disengaged from the terminal
to short the circuit between the ECU-side con
-
nector terminals. The connector engagement is
detected electrically by flowing the monitor cur
-
rent to this circuit.
•This mechanism automatically short-circuits the
power supply side terminal and earth side termi
-
nal of the air bag when the connector is discon-
nected. A short spring is incorporated in the
connector to short-circuit the power supply side
terminal and earth side terminal of the air bag (no
potential difference between the two terminals)
and prevent flow of current by static electricity to
the squib.

TRANSMISSION CONTROL
CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT)23-6

GENERAL INFORMATIONM2232000100447
•A smart shift type selector lever has been
adopted in order to facilitate walkthrough
between the seats.
•A gun grip type selector lever knob has been
adopted for better operation and easier visual
recognition of the switches arranged in the centre
panel.
•The selector lever assembly has been a single
unit made by aluminium die casting for better
accuracy and fewer parts, resulting in the light
-
weight and compact structure.
•The selector lever has been designed to be com-
pact and appropriately configured not to interfere
with the energy absorbing mechanism on the
steering column upon impact of the vehicle.
•In order to prevent abrupt start by erroneous
operation of selector lever, a CVT erroneous
operation prevention mechanism (the shiftlock
mechanism and key interlock mechanism) has
been adopted.
