sirtokesalot Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 (edited) Pretty much as the title says. It starts in Neutral but won't start in park. it is very cold outside could that effect anything?

montana tom Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 My guess... Ice buildup at the selector switch keeping it from traveling all the way into park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickytrus Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Neutral safety switch? I haven't had an auto matic in years....... but, that would be my inclination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bushwick Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Mine is doing the same thing, but the large solenoid to disengage park quit working (at exactly the same time), so that means getting it out of park, then popping in neutral. Thankfully, neutral starting has been reliable. With that said, 1 time since this started happening, the solenoid worked and it actually started in park. I've tried manually working the solenoid with key set to crank, and no luck. Unsure if coincidence or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
