LostWater Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 I just bought this outback http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4576116736&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT On ebay. It is a great deal with only a few minor problems. It drives great too! One problem is that sometimes I have to put in park, take it out of park, put in park again to hear the ""click" of the little electric switch that lets me take the ignition key out. Half of the time the first time I put it on park, the key won't come out. Anyone replaced that switch before and where is it at? I believe it is under the AT gear lever cover. The outback is a 96 with AT and 2.5. It is a nice addition to my 97. Thanks for any and all help! Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostWater Posted September 25, 2005 Author Share Posted September 25, 2005 Update, just found out it is called the "park position switch" thanks to that link that nipster provided! Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 The switch is down by the shifter under the plastic trim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostWater Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 Does anybody know the SOA part number for this switch? Thanks, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Before you replace the switch, have you checked to see whether it's getting signal, or if the solenoid is just sticking....which you could try cleaning and spraying lubricant on it.
