Shifter Stuck In Park - It Was A SIMPLE Fuse

- Shifter Stuck In Park. There may be multiple reason for your shifting not being able to move out of park. I replaced my brake light switch with a switch with adaptive cruise control and without adaptive cruise control. Neither worked or got my shifter out of park.
I then went to the next easiest thing.
I looked at a fuse diagram and found that my cruise control, automatic transmission shifter, and brake lights all were connected to one fuse. I replaced the broken fuse and all these problems were fixed.
Here are some reasons for your shifter getting stuck in park:
1. Emergency Brake (Parking Brake) Not Set
2. Knob is stuck on brake light switch or gear shift sensor or stop light switch
3. Fuse
4. Faulty Shift Interlock Solenoid
5. On an incline and the parking brake is not being released (push car forward, release parking brake, shift the car, fix parking brake issue before you park on an incline again)
6. Vehicle Ignition Switch fail
7.

On my way after a trip my cruise control stopped working and when I got home my shift got stuck in park, I was literally about to buy the same part as you till I saw this video. I appreciate it. just got it fixed.
THANK YOU! I have a 2002 Audi Allroad and I replaced the brake pedal switch sensor and the transmission was still stuck in park. As well the heater and air conditioner weren't working as well as the 4 level air suspension. After watching your video, I checked all of the fuses and it was the CONTROL SUPPLY 10 amp fuse that I switched out with a new fuse and it FIXED IT! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR VIDEO!
I have an ABS light on, a Traction Control light on, a Brake light on, and the shifter is stuck in Park. This sounds similar to what you described in the video. I'm going to check out my fuses tomorrow. Thank you for this video
Did u fix it?
This the same issue I got. Did u fix it ?
Someone fix it?
I had the same problems on my 2016 tecoma. 1. Brake overide Malfunction. 2. Check AnitLock Brake system. 3. Shifter stuck in Park. 4. No Startup and goes into assessory mode.
Once I replaced the bad 10A brake fuse, all the errors went away and startup no problem and shift out of park as well.
Thank you, Your video saved me a ton on mechanic bills and time for something as simple as a fuse
Thank you so much for your troubleshooting advice. The 1998 Honda had the shifter stuck. Fortunately, the fuse was blown in the front auto compartment and able to replace it. All the best!
Thanks, you inspired me to pull each fues & saved me the trouble of replacing my break switch. 04 Titan has two of those 🌬. I didn't feel like messing with that at all!
Man you are right on I did exactly the same thing spent 35 bucks on a new brake light sensor and it turned out that bottom fuse that I couldn't reach was bad 15 amp!! Good job buddy
This problem just happened to my 1992 corolla, yesterday a guy was inserting the alarm system, but I think he messed up everything.Thank you this was very helpful
I had this problem this morning. In 2 minutes i found the burnt fuse. Went to the car accessories get a new fuse. The problem is solved... Thank you for the video.
Thank you sir.. this video was well appreciated, I seemed to have fixed the problem in my 2010 corolla, and saved me alot of money... I can't thank you enough. It indeed was a fuse!! Subscribed!!!
That's a great video. I just had a KIA Forte that didn't want to go out of park. And when I had it all apart, there was just a screw that came undone, so I decided that I'll film it and post it here as well. But it seems like that KIA has a problem with their shifting mechanism.
Oh wow 😱 u have save me frm worries! Thank u so so so very much! Everything u went over today was the same things i was having a problem with on my 2000 4runner limited. U r the greatest ! Rhanks again and teach as well as learning us!!!!!!
Great analytical process, pretty informative video. Thank you.
My car is currently at the dealership after dropping it off less than an hour ago (a "free" recall and replace of it's AirBag). While there I advised them of the shifter being stuck (the same behavior as your shifter). They told me they would diagnose the problem for $125 and then contact me with the repair cost. - Your video has just saved me hundreds of dollars. I called them immediately to tell them to forget their diagnosis and just let me know when they completed the AirBag Recall - Thank you!
NICE! Hopefully it works. Yeah I would definitely research to see if there is something you could do before paying through the nose.
Same! Just called them to schedule my recall fix. Told them about my issue and they said it would cost $150 to diagnose, which would go towards the fix.... so could’ve easily been much more $$$. Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing this video... It was very helpful and solved our trouble...!!!
So oh my lord!!! I just changed my light switch on my 2000 Toyota Camry. I had to research it. I am not a mechanic. My late husband was and he passed two years ago. Sooo I researched how to and did It myself. Proud being a girl and all. But that didn’t fix the issue. Unplugged battery as well. 😂 I feel like I did everything you did, except I didn’t check the fuse! 😅that’s what I’ll be doing next. I have to go buy new fuses so I can replace. I pray this fixes the issue!! Thank you for this video! And I am so glad I stumbled upon it.
Fuse is called the STOP fuse if anyone wants to know
Fucking amen. Thanks.
where is the fuse for gear stick on 2007 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA ?

Yes, that was the problem.

Thank you very much for saving me some time and frustration!
Glad it turned out to be something simple, this is why I avoid firing the "parts cannon" at problems without at least pulling up a wiring diagram and checking some voltages first. Not only to save on unnecessary new parts, but also because a "NEW" part could potentially be defective out of the box, further complicating your original diagnosis by adding even more problems into the system.
Also it's worth considering what caused that fuse to blow in the first place, it could just be age but it's also possible you have an underlying intermittent short somewhere. That isn't a big deal as long as you make sure to replace the fuse with the same rating, worst case scenario it just blows again down the road and you can diagnose it further at that point. In fact I'd do the same as you in this case, fuses are cheap and there's no point pulling up panels and carpet unless it blows for a second time IMO.
Funny you say that. Now that I think about it... it blew when I was pulling a trailer... which I’ve never done before. Didn’t notice the broken cruise control or back up lights for about 3 months.

2002 tacoma! Dam bro! You got me off the side of a back road, thank you thank you! I lost my dash lights and tail light so pulled over and was stuck. Thank again, need to figure out what’s causing it. 165,000 miles on it no rust great truck! Wish me luck!
Thank you so much for this! It really helped....New knowledge gained 😊
You’re welcome!
Thanks for simple very well done video.
Thanks a lot your video! Helped in 100%, cost-free and great time saver :-)). Highly appreciate!
Man, thank you for your help, this video definitely helped me out!
You just saved my ass! Thank you sir! 2007 toyota camry check vsc system, abs and trac off lights were on. Also the car wouldnt start (push to start) and after car was on (bypassing everything and jumping the starter)it wouldn't shift into gear. It was stuck in park. All due to the stop fuse! Thank you
Thank you for great advice and visual instructions.
Trying to add LED license plate bulbs with resistors and this happened. I think it is the fuse. This is a great vid because you go thru the steps. Thank you.
Same for me. I T😢 tapped a back up camera and pow pow goes the fuse.
Thank you ! Mine was the break light switch, I was able to fix my acura (2003 TL).
Fantastic video thank you!
Hey man that was a good segment right there
Thanks for info. 2007 equinox, shift stuck in park, key would not let me complete shut off to remove it. Before happened, the roof lights blinked day before.didnt seem to be acting normal. And power locks would not always lock door. Battery draining after 3 months. Removed tab under steering wheel,pushed in spring,removed key. Testing fuses,charging battery, etc.take care.
Basics are always good. TY sir.
I have the same issue in my 4Runner and also replaced the brake switch. There is nothing I can find that indicates which fuse goes to this area. Can you tell if it’s a 10,15,20 fuse and where ? Thank you kindly!
Thank you! This solved the problem on my car.
Thanks bro save me from losing my job
Lmaooo
Lol, were you late though? 😂
Awesome video and nice to see all the trouble you had to go through to make easy for us. Thank you this definitely helps.
Which fuse fixed it
Thanks for this video. I have a question, its hard to figure out... Whenever i turn my FX35 on, hit the brake and try to ship, i have difficulty pressing the shifter to switch to reverse or drive... but after it shifts it works normally. Its only time this happens is when its in park. i don't even know how to explain.
This was the perfect explanation for my experience today 👏 😊
Hey bro I really appreciated your video it was a huge help ty again
I realized that it would start working again by lightly pressing the brake pedal upwards, this is, the other way you usually press your brake pedal. I wonder if I could finally fix it by just adjusting it a little bit instead of changing the entire piece
Thank you. Your video help me solve the problem in a Toyota Prado 2009. Thanks.
Ford focus 2012 has the the parking shifter stock on parking cant put it to gear can it be the same problem
supper the same problem i have in my 2015 nissan rogue , i fix this right now. i save time i money. Thank you very much
Hey i have the same problem with brake light, wont go on drive same problem as you whats the name of the fuse
This worked perfectly, thanks brother🍻
Great video! Thank you.
Same problem, i google every reason my brake light wont work and shifter stuck. Only you suggest the simplest and easiest problem to solve ! Others suggest interlock selonoid and break switch. I changed the fuse, Bammmm... My shifter and brake light start to work again. Thank youuu !!!!
Appreciate your help. Fwiw, No one is looking for the wrong answers...
Thanks Pal, worked for me!
Lovely one
Thanks for this video
Good video, thanks. I just had the same problem with my 2007 Tundra after hooking up a trailer. The brakes lights stopped working and the shifter would not shift. I did some research and thankfully it was only a broken 15A fuse.
Where was the 15A fuse located??? I am having the same issue with my 2008 tundra
Thank you boss safe my day 👌
I, did have exactly the same problem 6,yr ago did not know what to do toked to the mechanic. paid him $635.00. now I, no how to handle it. great video and thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this video. Shifter was locked in my 2011 Scion Xb and found the faulty fuse and works great again😂
Question, my battery won’t charge. Power steering is off. Checked battery and it is good. Replaced alternator and it still doesn’t charge? I’m at a loss for why it won’t charge. Is there a fuse that could be blown? Fuse box in engine was replaced and not the same as the original manufacturers so the diagram doesn’t match and I have no idea what fuse is what under the hood. The interior is the original and everything seems to be ok with the fuses.
Any advise would be appreciated
Thnx.
excellent video just helped me a lot right now
Awesome video. Thank you!
What was that fuse you replaced labeled as? Curious. I have a problem with cruise control activating , brake light and gear shifter stuck in park. Thanks
did u ever fix it bro!
Great troubleshooting and video. Although, I have a 2004 Honda CRV with same problem, I will try that fuse and solenoid, if I can find the location.
Very helpful thank you.
Soooo glad I watched this last night legit ended up being the same thing in a 95 celica gt. Was driving me nuts thought the solenoid for shifter went bad.
putting in trailer lights and I popped my fuse and the same thing happened, thanks for the video
I had the same problem and I did exactly the same thing, but now my car does not move either backwards or forward. What it is happening and what can I do to fix it. It looks my breaks got stucked. Any suggesting ?
I change the fuel it REALLY WORK thank you so much for ur video.....👍👍👍👍👍
Hi, my shiter knob is stuck and also sometime it feels as I do not have power steering. After I get the car out of park (by pressing the knob) on occasion I feel the steering is very tight.
Can this also be a fuse?
Thank you for this👍
What fuse did you change? What is that for? What part of fuse did you change?
I had the same issue but with a different type of car.
Will it affect on a manual transmission i cant shift off reverse to neutral it gets stuck😦
If it's like a 1cm difference in length or so, would that make a difference?
Thanks, man.... A fake Electrical man almost destroyed my vehicle claiming it was from Brain Box.. .. U saved me
Thank you! It was fuse 25 ECU-IG in my 2000 Camry.
Màxima 2006 shift goes to Neutral but won't go to Drive
...reverse works but that's it
no Drive ...any suggestions please ... tnx
I have a 1994 van I change shifts no problem but where you see the red thing moves when park and moves when you change to d for drive but doesn’t work can you please tell me how to fix it
I changed that little switch u did under the brake area all seemed to work fine but now I’ve noticed the brake pedal gets stuck in the braking position sometimes. After a while u can smell brake burn. But if I slap the brake pad with my foot a few times it goes back to normal lol it’s a 2007 Honda Pilot
Hi Dear, i saw your useful Video, i would like to know , I am using Nixxan X-Trail Model T30 (Auto) , some time i park my car on slope , later i start my car and shift reverse gear is very difficult i need to force which i do not worry will happen wrong, help some one to push the car then easily gear shift to R or any other , can you advice me regarding this, Thanks
Hi my 2011 535xi won’t start and the car stays in neutral and won’t go into park or drive or reverse, its just stuck in neutral. Have any ideas ? ( its not the battery btw, i fully charged it)
I am thankful to you! IT WAS THE FUSE! I had to go buy a wd-40 thinking it was that! THANK YOU!
Im have same issues with My Mazda Tribute....
What's the name on that fuse, aka duties it covers !!! Thanks Robert
I put my car in the shop 3 months ago. They said it was the solenoid. They replaced it and it still not coming out of park. What could be the issue? 2010 jetta S
I have a 2005 Ford Explorer four-wheel drive I have just changed the transmission entirely from another explorer that I know that worked but whenever I change gears the tires still don't move.
The shifter button on mine won't push in, but it'll push in when I use the manual release
great video, I will try my BMW 1995 E34 that been locked in parking lot. it is the "break LT circuits" warning come first, then can not moving the shifter when restart the car. Thank you so much.
Great video!
Amazing! I always forget about the fuse box
How do u know where to find the fuse it's all connected to in the diagram what's the name its under. Would have been pretty nice for u to mention that. Anyone know?
This saved me, thanks.
Was your key also stuck in the ignition? What to do if both key and gear are stuck? Thanks!
i have the same problem too
so... exactly which fuse is it ? what is it called and what is its value and where is it?
Thank you it was very helpful
Ty! Perfect I thought my car was broken. Was just the switch
All of this is happening to me, except my brake lights seem to be working. Could it still be a fuse or even the brake switch...? Im just confused b/c brake lights work.
Thank you so much . you just save money .
THANK YOU THANK YOU
Thanks for giving another reason to check.
Having a simulator problem with my 2004 Mitsubishi endeavor ether it won't come out of park or won't go into park unless you fiddle with the shift linkage or turn off the car start it back up and it will go into park. haven't figured this one our yet but this video gave me some direction to possibly follow.
I have a problem with my ls400 it dosent engage the in P gear easily I have to put it on p twice hardly so it would engage any ideas brothers?
Best video ever hands down
You just save me from losing my job too
Which fuse do you replace, the back light ones?
???
Mine ended up being the STOP under the hood.
Thanks for video. i have already replaced the brake switch, and my scanner only detects the Purge valve canister, so i will try fuses next... 08 Ford Escape
I cant even start the van>>>???? Is it it possible for the electric switch to keep it from starting?
I’m almost certain I’m having this exact issue. What was the name of this fuse? Is it the abs pump? Or anything along that line ?
which fuse was it?
jeep grand cheroke 2.7, locked in P when I turn on the ignition, when I only turn on the ignition I can move the lever,I specify when I put on the brakes do not go the taillights.
2012 QX56 ... it was the fuse too! Thanks!
