I have two Trofeos' 1990 & 1992. I had this same problem with both cars. The least expensive approach would to drop the drain pan and clean or the transmission filter. Change the fluid even if you have already changed the fluid. If you had the fluid changed at a garage, they usually suck it out. Rarely does this method remove the debris that settles in the pan. Open the hood and on the right side of the transmission you will see a Module that is screwed into the transmission housing. Take it off and replace it. The filter, pan gasket, and module will cost you about $35.00 to $40.00 at most. These transmissions' are pretty stout, unless you or the previous ower has done a lot of "jack rabbit" starts. If indeed this works, drive the car a couple of months and have the fluid changed again. The reason for this is that the fuild in the torque converter will have had a chance to recycle. If there was a lot of debris in the pan and filter when you did it the first time, you be wise to clean or replace the fluid and filter again. Good Luck,
Dick Adams I had the same problem with my 1991 toronado, it's not a problem with the mechanics of the transmission. I had it taken to the repair shop, and it was a simple electrical problem with a blown fuse preventing electricity from getting to the transmssion. once the fuse was replaced, the car shifted fine.

If your 1991 vehicle won’t shift out of park, it could be due to a faulty brake light switch, which prevents the shift interlock system from functioning. Check if your brake lights are working; if not, the switch may need replacement.
