Parking Lock
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2008 Suzuki Reno, 2008 Suzuki Forenza, 2007 Suzuki Reno, 2007 Suzuki Forenza, and 2006 Suzuki Reno. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The parking lock is actuated via the selector lever when in position P. It protects the vehicle mechanically against rolling away.
The stop plate is actuated by the selector shaft, which is permanently connected to the selector lever via a pull cable. The parking lock pawl on the parking lock gear is welded onto the lateral shaft of the transaxle and this prevents the drive wheels from turning.
This blocks the driven wheels.
