Reverse Switch Inspection
1. Disconnect switch (under left side cover).
No continuity
2. Connect one lead of Ohmmeter to switch
wire and the other to engine ground.
3. Place Reverse lever in forward (Down).
4. Resistance should be less than 1 Ohm
to ground (good continuity).
5. Slowly lift reverse lever while observing
the Ohmmeter reading. Lever must move
at least 6mm (1/4 inch) and no more than
12mm (1/2 inch) before the switch opens
(no continuity).
6. If switch opens and closes out of the range
above, adjust linkage rod (Chapter 11).
Replace switch if always grounded or open.
