### Installation Procedure

#### Tools Required

J 41364-A PNP Switch Adjusting Tool

1. Make sure the selector shaft is in the N (Neutral) position as follows:

• | Place a wrench on the selector shaft flats and rotate the shaft to its furthest clockwise position.

• | Rotate the selector shaft counter-clockwise two detents.

2. Install J 41364-A (1) onto the PNP switch as illustrated onto PNP switch (2). If installing a new PNP switch be sure that the neutral assurance bracket is in the same position on PNP switch (2) as J 41364-A .
3. Align the PNP switch (2) with the main housing so that the J 41364-A or neutral assurance bracket is facing outward.
4. While maintaining the correct PNP switch-to-selector-shaft alignment, slide the new PNP switch (2) over selector shaft (3).

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

5. While holding J 41364-A or the neutral assurance bracket in engagement with the PNP switch, install the two bolts (4) so that the PNP switch may be rotated with some effort.

Tighten
Tighten the two bolts (6) to 27 N·m (20 lb ft).

6. RemoveJ 41364-A .
