Reset Mode - Electronic Transaxle

damage, the transaxle automatically shifts into second
gear (third gear for six-speed). The transaxle remains in
second gear (third gear for six-speed) despite the forward
gear selected. PARK, REVERSE, and NEUTRAL will

to be driven to an authorized dealer for service without
damaging the transaxle.
