Hello,

You need to drop the transmission pan and remove a roll pin in order for the "rod" going into the transmission to be pulled out far enough to remove the PNP switch. YUP, I just did this job.

Check out the guide below.

Check out the diagrams (Below)

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
