G'day everyone,
Came accross a problem the other night with my liberty which I have only had for about 3 weeks. I have experienced some trouble with the automatic gearbox going from drive to reverse before but it would always go through if I persisted.
This time though I had to follow the manual to take the trim off and jam a screwdriver into hole to the top right of the transmission. I wasn't exactly sure what I was to be pushing on but somehow I got it to fall into park.
The same trick however doesn't seem to be working to get it out of park, or maybe I'm just worried I'll break something. All I can see in the hole in some white plastic as the bottom, no indication of a button that releases the shift lock which leads me to believe I am doing something wrong. I can also hear a kind of shorting noise from behind the wheel when trying to shift out of park.
I just need another way to temporarily disable it, or an idea of how to fix it so I can at least get the car moving.
Thanks in advance,
