Checking the selector mechanism
36. In all lever positions except "P" and "N", the starter must not be engaged.
37. In the "N" mode, at a speed of more than 5 km/h, the electromagnetic selector lever locking valve should not lock the lever, and it should be possible to move the lever back to the drive position.

39. When the selector lever is in the "N" or "P" position, the ignition is on and the brake pedal is released, the selector lever must be locked and must not be moved out of the "N" or "P" position with the lock button pressed (the solenoid valve must lock the lever).
Note: Blocking in "N" does not work immediately.
When the brake pedal is depressed, the solenoid valve should release the lock - slowly move the lever from "P" to "S", while monitoring the correctness of the indicator readings in the instrument cluster.
40. When moving the lever to the manual mode position, instead of the "D" illumination on the selector lever cover, the illumination of the "+" and "-" positions should light up, and instead of "PRNDS", the indication should appear in the instrument cluster "(87)654321". The lever must only be allowed to be moved from "D" to manual mode when the lock button is pressed.

5.50. Loosening/tightening the tie bolt.
51. Turn on the ignition and ensure that the "S" position is displayed in the instrument cluster and on the indicator near the shift lever. If these conditions are met, without moving the shift lever, smoothly and evenly tighten the clamping bolt, and then check the operation of the shift actuator (see above). Otherwise, tighten the clamping bolt, read the fault codes, and check the "F125" adjustment of the engine/valve (see the relevant subsection below) and repeat the adjustment.

57. Install template T10173 on the selector shaft (see illustration).
5.57. Setting the selector mechanism to "N".
If the protrusion on the connector does not fit into the slot in the template, the selector mechanism is not in the "N" position, or the selector cable is incorrectly adjusted. Turn the "F125" (A) D/V so that the connector protrusion fits into the template slot and secure the template in this position with the bolt on the side.
58. Tighten the "F125" D/V mounting bolts, remove the template, connect the sensor connector and turn on the ignition. Make sure the instrument cluster and indicator near the selector lever indicate the "N" position. Then install the selector shaft cover and tighten the nut onto the selector shaft.
