NEUTRAL LOCKING SYSTEM AND TOOL FOR VEHICLE

摘要

A neutral locking system for a vehicle includes a park release shaft and a neutral locking tool. The park release shaft is operatively connected to the transmission such that rotation of the park release shaft places the transmission in a neutral state. The tool is configured to couple to the park release shaft such that rotation of the tool rotates the park release shaft. The tool can also include a sliding locking pin having a first position allowing rotation of the tool within an engine compartment and a second position in which the pin contacts a component in the engine compartment to limit rotation of the tool.

1. A neutral locking system for a vehicle, comprising:
a park release shaft operatively connected to a transmission of the vehicle such that rotation of the park release shaft in a first rotatable direction places the transmission in a neutral state, the park release shaft located adjacent an aperture of a transmission case housing the transmission; and a neutral locking tool having a main shaft with one end configured to nonrotatably and removably couple to the park release shaft such that rotation of the main shaft rotates the park release shaft.
