Abstract
A park-lock follower (50) for a shifter assembly (10) is provided which coacts with a shifter (34) pawl to lock and unlock a key in an ignition switch (112). The pawl (34) is disposed within a gate (18) having a plurality of stepped regions (22, 24, 26, 28) that is supported by a base (16). The follower (50) is attached to one end (62) of a cable assembly (52) and is supported by the base (16) adjacent to a park stepped region (22) for rectilinear movement along an axis (A). The follower (50) is moved linearly to an unlocked position (X) in response to the pawl (34) being moved to the park stepped region (22) for unlocking the key in the ignition switch (112). The follower (50) is moved linearly to a locked position (Y) in response to the pawl (34) being moved to one of the non-park stepped regions (24, 26, 28) for locking the key in the ignition switch (112).
