Key Interlock System
Unless the selector lever is in
‘P”
position, the igni-
tion key cannot be turned to the “LOCK” position,
and the key cannot be removed.
The key interlock device installed in the inside of
the ignition key cylinder consists of the slide lever,
cam lever and revolving cam.
The slide lever is connected to the key interlock
cable. When the selector lever is operated, the slide
lever moves to interlock with the cam lever. The
revolving cam is designed to interlock with the igni-
tion key.

WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS IN THE LOCK
POSITION OR PULLED OUT
The cam lever meshes with the projection on
the revolving cam inside the ignition key cylinder
to restrict movement of the slide lever that is
connected with the cam lever. As a result, since
turning of lock cam is restricted and movement
of the detent pin is hindered, the selector lever
pushbutton cannot be depressed and the selec-
tor lever cannot be moved to any position other
than the “P” position.
WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS IN ANY
POSITION BUT LOCK POSITION (SELECTOR
LEVER IS IN
“P”
POSITION)
The projection on the revolving cam inside the
ignition key cylinder is in a position where it
does not hinder movement of the cam lever
and the restriction of the slide lever connected
with the cam lever is released. As a result, when
the pushbutton of the selector lever is pressed,
lock cam is turned in the direction of the arrow
shown in the illustration and the detent pin
moves down.
As a
result!
.the
selector lever can be moved
to any
posrtron
other than the
“P”
position.
NOTE
While the brake pedal is not depressed, the
selector lever cannot be moved to any position
other than the
“P”
position even if the ignition
key is not in the “LOCK” position. (Refer to the
section of SHIFT LOCK SYSTEM.)
