The transaxle selector lever linkage consists of:
 a selector lever cable that connects the transaxle manual control lever to the selector lever assembly.
 a brake shift interlock actuator (BSIA) that is integral to the selector lever assembly.
 a transmission control (TC) switch that turns off the operation of 6th gear.
The selector lever assembly:
 locks the transaxle selector lever in the PARK position when the ignition switch is in the LOCK position.
 requires the transaxle selector lever to be in the PARK position to turn the ignition switch to the LOCK
position.
Range Selection
This transaxle has 5 range positions: P, R, N, D and L.
Fig. 2: Identifying 5 Range Positions

Park
In the PARK position:
 there is no powerflow through the transaxle.

 the parking pawl locks the final drive.

 the engine may be started.
 the ignition key may be removed.
Reverse
In the REVERSE position:
 the vehicle may be operated in a rearward direction, at a reduced gear ratio.

 engine braking will occur.
Neutral
In the NEUTRAL position:
 there is no powerflow through the transaxle.

 the output shaft is not held and is free to turn.
 the engine may be started.
Drive Position With Overdrive (O/D)
DRIVE is the normal position for most forward driving.
DRIVE provides:
 automatic shifts - 1st through 6th gears.

 apply and release of the torque converter clutch (TCC).
 maximum fuel economy during normal operation.
Manual L Position
This position provides:
 maximum engine braking.

 downshifts to the lowest available gear for the current vehicle speed.
Manual L position allows for 1st gear when the vehicle reaches slower speeds.
Drive with Grade Assist - Transmission Control (TC) Switch
Microsoft
2008 Ford Edge SE
Fig. 3: Identifying Overdrive Switch

Drive with overdrive (O/D) cancel and grade assist is activated when the TC switch is pressed. The TC switch is
located on the selector lever knob. When the TC switch is pressed, the 6th gear or O/D upshift is prevented or
the transaxle shifts down to 5th gear. The TC switch is meant to be used when driving conditions cause
excessive shifting from 6th to other gears such as hilly terrain, mountainous areas or when engine braking is
required.
O/D Cancel
 O/D is cancelled.
 The transaxle operates in gears 1 through 5.
 The O/D OFF lamp illuminates on the instrument cluster.
Grade Assist
 Improves vehicle handling in hilly terrain or mountainous areas by providing engine braking and
extending lower gear operation on uphill climbs.
 Additional engine braking is provided through the automatic transaxle shift strategy which reacts to
vehicle inputs (vehicle acceleration, accelerator pedal, brake pedal and vehicle speed).
 The transaxle will select gears that will provide the engine braking desired, based on the vehicle inputs,
this will increase engine RPM during engine braking.
It is recommended to return to DRIVE mode on flat terrain to provide the best fuel economy and transaxle
function. The transaxle returns to O/D when the TC switch is pressed again or anytime the key is turned OFF.

Brake Shift Interlock
The brake shift interlock system consist of the:
 BSIA.
 ignition switch.
 brake pedal position (BPP) switch powered by fuse 71 (10A).
 transmission range (TR) sensor.
 instrument cluster (IC).
 fuse 5 (10A).
 smart junction box (SJB).
When the ignition switch is in RUN/START, the solenoid inhibits the selector lever movement (from the PARK
position) if the brake pedal is not depressed.

 Fuse(s): Brake shift interlock actuator (BSIA)

 Brake pedal position (BPP) switch
Microsoft
2008 Ford Edge SE
 Ignition switch position (RUN/START)

 Transmission range (TR) sensor (PARK)
 Instrument cluster (IC)
Brake Shift Interlock Operation
The BSIA inhibits the selector lever movement from the PARK position by mechanically blocking the detent
pawl of the selector lever mechanism. When the brake pedal is depressed (BPP switch closed) with the ignition
key in the RUN/START position and the transmission in PARK, the BSIA is energized by the SJB, this allows
the selector lever to be moved out of the PARK position.
Fig. 5: Identifying Brake Shift Interlock Operation

Proper Operation Requirements
Three requirements for the selector lever to be moved from the PARK position are:
 Ignition switch in the RUN/START position

 TR sensor in the PARK position
 BPP switch closed (brakes applied - brake lamps on)

Symptom Chart - Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH)
NOTE: Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) symptoms should be identified using the
diagnostic tools that are available. For a list of these tools, an explanation of
their uses and a glossary of common terms, refer to NOISE, VIBRATION AND
HARSHNESS article. Since it is possible any one of multiple systems may be
the cause of a symptom, it may be necessary to use a process of elimination
type of diagnostic approach to pinpoint the responsible system. If this is not the
causal system for the symptom, refer back to NOISE, VIBRATION AND
HARSHNESS article for the next likely system and continue diagnosis.

GENERAL PROCEDURES
BRAKE SHIFT INTERLOCK OVERRIDE
NOTE: If it is necessary to use the override procedure to move the selector lever out of
the PARK position, it is possible that a fuse has blown and the brake lights are
not operational. Before driving the vehicle, verify that the brake lights are
working.
This vehicle is equipped with a brake shift interlock feature that prevents the
selector lever from being moved out of PARK when the ignition is in the ON
