Code 51
Posted: Sun Oct 17, 2004 3:08 pm
Hi,
I just bought a '92 Legacy and have begun pulling codes, one of which is 51. If I understand the CEL code correctly, this is an inhibitor switch fault for an A/T.
Anyone have any ideas as to where to begin to trace this fault? Frankly, I don't even know how best to get to the switch at the source, let alone trace it from the loom.
The car has no apparent problems during ignition, and performs start-up operations only while in "Park" (assuming that the primary role this functionality provides is one of failsafe). But I just want to be certain I'm not missing a potentially bigger problem!
Thanks in advance for any suggestions:-)
