Ford galaxy auto will not go into drive?
Possibly a problem with the brake light switch It is linked to the gear selector If the switch is faulty you cannot select gears Make sure the brake lights are working
What do you do when you are in Park and the key to your Accord 2004 is stuck in the ignition and it will turn to start the car but the gear is stuck in park and it reads it as if it were drive mode?
there should be and interlocking switch on the break pedal telling the vehicle that the brake isn't on, which will not allow the vehicle to go into gear. check to see if your brake lights are working. if they are not, the switch is bad. needs to be changed.
Why wont your ford van shifter go into reverse or drive?
Check and see if you have brake lights - If there are no brake lights then your shifter release solenoid will not release the shifter, it will be stuck in park. If this has happened then please check the wiring on the brake light switch which is located on the brake pedal. You will probably find a broken wire.
Disable day time running lights 2004 E350 Ford van?
The easiest way to do this. Very lightly apply the emergency brake. Moving the pedal will turn the lights off. You can drive like this as long as the emergency brake is not actually engaged. Try it..... A permanent fix would be to install a toggle switch connected to the e-brake pedal switch.

Check to see if your brake lights work. If not, there is a switch attached to your brake petal Assembly that probably came loose. plug it back in and it should work....

The brake light switch is faulty. It also operates the park release solenoid. The get-round trick is to put the stick between neutral and drive before starting the engine.

How do you switch off daytime running lights on a 2003 cobra mustang?
If you pull the parking brake up the running lights will go off - if not - start the car with the parking brake on and that should work, if you want to drive with the running lights off - you can get away with "slightly" putting the parking brake on (just so the parking brake light goes on in the dash but the brakes itself makes no contact) Otherwise you can remove the relay that controls the daytimes - maybe even a fuse
My dodge stratus gear is stuck in park but the car is on how i can get it out of parkin gear?
Check to see if the brake lights are working - brake lights and shift interlock are the same circuit. If brake lights are not working check the fuse or thealignment and operation of the stop light switch or try the following as a temporarty measure: Turn key to 1st position (Unlock) without starting vehicle Shift to Neutral to start vehicle Then shift to Drive
