JSHIFT CONTROL SYSTEM
1. Shift Control
D A shift position sensor is provided in the transaxle to detect the shift position and sends a corresponding
signal to the THS ECU. Upon receiving this signal, the THS ECU optimally combines the operation of
the engine, MG1 and MG2 in order to produce the respective shift positions ("P", "R", "N", "D", and "B").
D However, because the movement of the wheels must be mechanically locked in the P position, a parking
lock mechanism is used in the transaxle. Therefore, if the driver operates the shift lever to the P position,
a cable and a linkage cause the movement of the transaxle to lock mechanically.
