Wouldn't switch out of park November 23, 2024, 09:34:22 pm problem: suddenly couldn't move our 2002 midbath out of park.solution: According to the mechanic, there is a part that tells the computer that your foot is on the brake, which then allows you to shift. That part has a spring. When the spring breaks, it's Motorcraft SW-2217 E9TZ-13480-A. It wasn't even an expensive fix! Quite a relief. 5 Likes

Re: Wouldn't switch out of park Reply #2 – November 24, 2024, 02:29:03 am It's an unusual problem I have seen once on a 2006 MB.Either the brake switch or the interruptor solenoid fails, locking the transmission in Park.One set of contacts in the brake switch activates a solenoid that releases the shift linkage, allowing the transmission to go into gear.https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/c/motorcraft/engine-sensors---emissions/body-switches/brake-light-switch/416768908ca1/motorcraft-2-terminal-multi-purpose-switch/mot0/sw2217More Information for STANDARD MOTOR PRODUCTS SIA1Glad you got it fixed.Larry 1 Likes
