It is true there's a mechanical lock on the transmission which requires the brake pedal to be depressed in order to shift out of park. However, a more simple explanation than below could be the result of a blown fuse for the brake lights found under the hood within the main fuse box. I encountered this problem when using a friends utility trailer. The brake/turning light wiring on the trailer wasn't properly grounded. I had it plugged into a 4 straight trailer wire harness. The first time I stepped on the brakes, there was an ungrounded surge sent to the brake lights, blowing the rear left bulb and then the fuse under the hood. If you encounter this problem in a pinch, the fuse for the rear window defrost is the same amp rating and is located in the same fuse box, but be sure to unplug the trailer before you blow another fuse. As a reminder, I didn't know anything was wrong until I finally stopped and parked the car, at which point I couldn't get it out of park. It was then I diagnosed the problem. The main reason is that the brake pedal must be depressed in order for the shifter to be operated from the Park position. There's a mechanical block that is released when the pedal is pushed. I believe that there's a release inside of the slot that the shift lever operates in. Off the top of my head, I recall that it's in the rearmost part of the slot (towards the back of the car) and a curled finger inserted into the slot, finding a little plastic bar and pulling it forward will release the lock so that you may operate the shifter without pressing the brake pedal. I found that if you take off the neg terminal of the battery that the shifter will not operate at all.
are you serious? yeah you do- the O/D switch is on the side of the shifter- and if you're asking this I'm assuming you have an automatic....'cause a manual- well yeah you have to shift.
Yes.
It could be that the torque convertor is locked and not slipping which it should do as the normal operation
probably your neighbours cat is locked in the boot ANSWER: LOL, Either that or one of the belts needs to be replaced.
Checked to see if your steering wheel is locked. If not, then your problem is the tumblers. Replace the mechinical ignition switch. Cause- Having too many keys hanging with the ignition key.
Try cleaning the MAF with a can of elecrical cleaner. then clear the code with a OBD11 tester.
If I understand your question correctly, a burned out dash bulb behind the display.
A lean condition is too much air and not enough fuel The cause can be a fuel delivery problem,02 sensor,MAF sensor or a vacuum leak
IT means the engine is running lean. More Air than gas. And you need to be careful as it can cause t engine to overheat if the condition is sever enough.
either your knee hits it into neutral or you hit the bump to fast and it pops forward.
bottom engine mount nut snaped
cause if your car went automatic then you could not control it
