Check that its all the way in park, sometimes my car will do this. Jiggle it a bit
It will start to slip
It could slip out of park, but most likely would "park lock." This would mean the parking pawl would jam inside other parts in the transmission, making it tough to get your car out of park. Sometimes pushing the car is the only way. Use the parking brake on a hill.
The reason to gear lock in park mode is so you're car wont roll back if your parked on a hill. If your e-brake cable snaps, the car will stop itself from rolling because its in a gear lock. Just make sure when you start you car to keep your foot down on the clutch until you but your car netruel.
the transmission
Safety switch is defective.
They are both delicious and if the car is a Toyota they will both keep going once they start rolling
adjust the linkage on the trans
The ignition switch in my wife's 98 accord went bad a few month ago. The car would randomly shut off while driving, then it wouldn't start back up for another 15 mins or so. It would crank, but not start. It's an automatic. To diagnose that the ignition switch was bad, I had the car in gear (D), turned the key to the "start" position. The car is not going to start until I put it into neutral or park. Then I'd slip the leaver into neutral, the motor would crank and start up, then I'd slip the leaver back into Drive (so the starter motor would stop).
Park and neutral
The lights come on when you start the car. They will not come on if you have the park brake on. Once you release the park brake they will come on immediately.
uphill turn front wheels away from curb downhill turn front wheels into the curb this is to avoid the car rolling away
You need to start the car, put your foot on the brake pedal, and then you can get outta PARK!!
