Abstract

See full text

A sub-assembly for a brake transmission shift interlock system. The sub-assembly includes an inhibitor for preventing shifting of a vehicle transmission from a park position in the absence of application of a brake by a vehicle occupant, and a solenoid having a movable armature. A linkage couples the inhibitor to the armature such that movement of the armature produces a movement of the inhibitor. The linkage also couples the inhibitor to the armature so as to permit movement of at least a portion of the inhibitor independent of the armature. A brake transmission shift interlock assembly and a switch assembly incorporating the sub-assembly are also provided.
