English term or phrase: ATP switch
La requête ["ATP switch" "transfer case"] donne plusieurs résultats, mais je n'arrive pas à trouver avec certitude ce que signifie ATP. Un forum dit "Automation Transmission Park" (Automation devrait peut-être se lire Automatic):
http://www.clubtitan.org/forumshowthread.php?t=41723, mais évidemment sans source.
Rien dans le GDT ni dans Termium.

interrupteur Automatic Transmission Park
Explanation:
http://www.clubfrontier.org/forums/f8/what-does-atp-warning-...

"Automatic transmission park
warning light ( model)

This light indicates that the automatic transmission
parking function is not engaged. If
the transfer control shift lever is not secured
in any drive position while the automatic
transmission selector lever is in the P (Park)
position, the vehicle may move unexpectedly.
Shift the transfer control shift lever into the
2H, 4H, or 4L position when the warning
light comes on.
c
When parking, always make sure that the
transfer control shift lever is in 2H, 4H, or
4L and the parking brake is set.

c
If the ATP light is ON, this indicates that
the automatic transmission P (Park) position
will not function and the transfer
control shift lever is in the N (Neutral)
position."

Je crois que «switch» est soit le contacteur qui fait fonctionner ou non la position Park de la boîte de vitesses, soit celui qui fait allumer la lampe témoin au besoin. Merci!

Asker: Merci à tous. @ FV : j'aime bien BVA, mais malheureusement elle est peu utilisée au Québec. Question : il y aurait aussi contacteur, s'il est vrai qu'«interrupteur» et «commutateur» sont actionnés par l'utilisateur, alors qu'ici le contact est fait par un dispositif, selon l'explication du manuel ci-dessus...

Asker: Excellent. Si on garde l'anglais, autant utiliser l'abréviation ATP, accompagnée d'un «terme explicatif» français...
