- This is a quick tutorial on how to get your car out of park. This car is a Honda accord. There are few reasons for car to be stuck in park . Few explanations are that the shift lock is worn damage or broken. The connection to the break release which is next to break petal like a plunger switch (shift lock solenoid) is not working or damage. The stop fuse is broken. the break light fuse is broken. the break lights are out.
Good video for the most part. FYI tho, you don't have remove the cup holder or the console cover. All you need to remove is the black ring bezel around the shifter and that'll give you access to the shift lock button.
Great Video! I'm a master auto electric Wiz Retired. Ive owned 3 shops. You did an absolute great teaching! Bless you and your skills! Made Me Proud!
Hello cranberry valley! I have an electrical question if you don’t mind, a real head scratcher for myself but you may know the fix
9 years later this video helped me out extremely!! Thank you!
Thank you so much! The video helped my boyfriend diagnose my problem. I was stuck at work with this issue. My boyfriend went on TH-cam, found your video and problem was fixed! You're awesome! Thanks again and keep posting.
Got me out of the parking lot! You're awesome. Driving around with my house key jammed in the shift release right now.
I can't thank you enough for posting this! You just saved my day! I would have been stranded!!
was yours completely stuck in park or could you press the button an jiggle it out of park?
I just did that and drove it rite away lol
I have to say THANK YOU for this video! It was a life-saver just now for my dad, thanks again!
Thank you! This was so simple and saved me tons of hassle and time and money. I told my husband I did this, and he said he's never been more attracted to me. :-D
Thank you, thank you, thank you. My daughter was stuck in a parking lot because her horn went off from the alarm which blew the 20 amp fuse that you had shown in the front fuse box. that fix the problem now I feel like the genius you certainly are. Thanks again
Thanks so much for this tutorial..it was dead on perfect for diagnosing my problem, and I was able to fix it ( the brake light switch) without going to a mechaninc
I'm getting off work on Christmas Eve expecting to leave right away and this happened. Stuck in a tmobile garage dead zone ... good thing Acura is part of the Honda family and for my sake had a reachable transmission release . Thank you g
It's 3am and I've just watched this video. I'm checking the fuse first thing tomorrow! thanks
Great tutorial! Thank you for the step-by-step walkthrough of what could be causing the problem and what might be the fixes!
Thank you for this, it solved our problem! We didn't have the time or money to wait for a mechanic, couldn't find the problem on our own. Your video took 10 minutes to find and fix it. Super job!
Bro, you just fixed my 2005 Accord!! You the man! Subscribed!
This morning this video saved my life lol now on the way to work. I never thought that would happen to my car. Thankyou so much. You saved me some money
Thank you so much for this, I tried 2 days searching solution, in my car, not just was parking stuck, also horn stop to work, and just was that fuse calls "STOP" I never saw car´s stop light... well thank you so much for your help. Grettings from Mexico city. Good vibes.
mine too, the horn became inconsistent and my gear handle wont shift. let me try locating the fuse when i get home.
I really appreciate your video. Gave me more ideas of what my issue could be. I have an 06 Acura TL, so it's easy to by pass, but I still didn't want to take to a mechanic. Thanks again man.
You have no idea how much your video helped me man. You 're a champion. Thank you
Thank you, u just saved my night. It was the break fuse. God bless you
Just a heads up... if this keeps blowing the fuse in the rain, it's most likely a hole in the trunk, water gets in and shorts the fuse for this 7.5W back up light fuse (and shift lock release).
Thank you so much for this video. I was stranded for an hour...i tried this it worked, this really helped me☺❤
That thing under the dash that was very dark he was pointing at toward the end is somewhere along the arm that holds the brake pedal. Just followed it and at some point when you step on brake pedal you will see like a button that gets pushed. That is the sensor that actuates the brake lights and also allows for the shifter to shift. Good quick way to test that sensor is step on brake and have somebody see if your brake lights turn on. If they dont turn on when you push brake, something is wrong with that sensor.
The gift that keeps on giving! Thank you so much for posting - used this the other day.
Thanks man this really help me out it worked thank you.
Thanks for explaining this! I encountered this today and thought I’d be facing a big repair bill. I’m so glad to hear it’s just a fuse. You made my day!
I really appreciate your help with this video. I was just about to burn this car..
This video helped me today November 15, 2019 at 4:00 PM whilst i was with my 4 year old son!
Right after a drug deal😣
Dude, you don't need to take the cupholder and cover off. Just pop out the little piece to the left of the shifter and insert your screwdriver to push the override button.
Thanks for your vid tho. I'll definitely check out my fuse.
Awesome explanation and use of camera thank you so much. 😊
THANK YOU!! I have been fighting with my car forever with this issue!
Man! Thank you for the very helpful tips! Worked perfect; now to buy a new shift knob Assembly......
your voice is amazing, you should play in a theater i am serious.
This video just helped me! I didn't have a screwdriver but I used a dirty pen that I found when I removed the cupholder!
Thank you. Mine stuck on me three times, but rocking the car and re-trying luckily got it out of park. I feared the transmission might be gone. I'll try this fix right now.
Helpful video. Great job explaining what to do. Thanks!
Now my car shifts when i hit the shift lock release.. But my fuses are good now what? But video was awesome. Got my car home. Ty!
Thanks for the video. Do you have to release the shift lock, or can you just replace the blown fuse straight away, and then it will release?
Bro thank u I revived a 2001 Honda Accord on 4 flats from the ground up and this was the last bit ok know how I needed thank u
Good DIY so I have the same problem all fuses are good when pressing brakes no third brake light comes on or brake lights either I'm guessing I have to change the part on top if the brake pedal?
THANKS Saved my ass.. Thought I was screwed. Had no cash. Turned out to be blown fuse under hood.
Thanks a ton for your video. This just happened to my wife's 2000 Honda Accord.
Great vid brother by the way not sure if this applies to all accords but mine had a little slot were u can just lift it up and touch the shift loc release
thx, the nut behind the pwr unit was loose & now will start & gear shift works! :)
This is a great video if you are a) in a pinch and need to get going and have a slender metal tool to depress the lever switch or b) have a bad backup fuse and didn't know that could cause the issue. Please know, however that it could also be the brake light switch, located just above your brake pedal and fully accessible with just a screwdriver. For just about 10 bucks at AutoZone and about 15 minutes time you can resolve this issue and never have to worry about it again. As I've posted on another video, the brake light switch replacement was 120 bucks at the Honda dealership. SAVE YOUR MONEY and DIY!!!
***** I just noticed the bit he mentioned about the BLS. Very easy replacement. This video was perfect as he went from the cheapest issue to the most expensive, though in my experience the BLS is likely the culprit most of the time.
Thank you for sharing your video, you helped my husband to fix this problem.😊
I'm sure grandma can remember that when she gets stuck in the Mohave Desert somewhere on I10 between Phoenix and the Colorado River. I just wonder who designed that sucker.
Great vid bro, but all I did was turn my ignition to the on position but not actually turning the car on. Then I gave my honda it a little tug forward with my left leg and pressed the shifter button down to neutral and it worked!!!!!😃😃
Thanks for the video man. Saved me lots of trouble shooting!
You saved me,Brother! You the Man!!!
Thanks for this video... you possibly helped us with another problem on top of this!
Ok, fuse was not blown, but the buy pass worked. I am in process of changing headlights and did this. What else can cause this not to release?
Thanks so much!! This video really helped! I was able to fix the problem!
thanks This was very helpful!
I have this problem, which was preceded by the car not starting. Could this still be a fuse issue? Also what tool was he using to test the fuses?
Thank you so much! Would this same fuse cause the gauges to not work like the gas gauge speedometer Etc?
I have a 97 Honda accord, which fuse am I checking. I don't have a device to check them
My taillights are working but not when i brake. And shifter intermittently gets stuck, so would it be both fuse n peddle switch?
The 01 LX has a small oblong tab you can pop that out and stick a small screwdriver the hole to release the lock
i have a 98 accord j30a and itll come outta park but i gotta press the button and jiggle it back and forth till it comes out of park is that the same problem ur showing in your video or did urs completely stay stuck in park?
thank you for this post my car had blown a fuse an now it works 😀 thank you
What year is your car will this work for 2004 Honda Accord?
Awesome video. Very informative
Does this work on integras as well? because mines doesn't shift to reverse at all
Hey friend, thanks for the video! Helping a women stay strong and independent 💪 thank you!!
What do you do when it's 9:40 pm at night? Can't believe that little fuse can disable your car.
can u have the car on and shift out of park?? or does the car have to be off
I have a 1990 accord and the shifter is hard to get out of park. All other gears are fine. Solution?
lol watched this to get out of the work parking lot. thanks
Great tutorial!!
I've had occasional problems, 4-5 times a year ago and twice during this past week, with the horn spontaneously sounding with regular pulses, not continuously, but honk, pause, honk, pause, honk, etc. This happened with the car parked, and locked in my driveway, and in a parking lot. Once, this past week, it stopped when I was about to leave the house to press a button on my key fob to get it to stop. Then, a couple of days ago, the car was stuck in Park. I couldn't find the clips, get them to release, on the flat plastic ahead of the cup holder. I visually checked a couple of fuses,, but didn't have a tester. Ultimately, I had the car towed to the nearby Honda dealership. They replaced Fuse #47. The car's no longer stuck in Park, and I'll monitor the horn problem. I think it may be related, and, therefore, also solved.
+Harvey Pillersdorf Turned out that Fuse # 47 was not the only problem. There was a short circuit in the horn. Due to the location of the horn and its wiring, between the grill and the radiator, it's exposed to lots of road dirt and weather. Eventually, the dealership mechanics realized that sounding the horn caused fuse #47 to blow. I found a replacement horn at a Harbor Freight store for $100 for a new horn. All's fine now.
thanks for your video life saver
My 01 Acura CL won't shift into park or reverse. I already pushed down on the shift lock release and still won't shift up to those gears. All fuses are fine. Any suggestions?
Great video bro.. got my thumps uo
Great video bro love the detail
Yes. Thank you very much. Great video!
Thank you
It could be the shift solonoid going bad !!!
How do you change that !!!
thanks dude. I liked your video. very helpful.
How do i fix this problem on my accord I don’t hear the click so i can shift its not my fuse what do i have to fix
My car doesn’t start n stuck on park ...can it be that fuse ?
thnx dude...very helpful info
Thank bruh You helped me out in so many ways pimp
Thank you for this. I have a question though, if it gets out of park after a while would that be the solenoid that's bad or could it still be a fuse?
I want to know this too, do you have an answer?
Ryan Arakaki you could have a bad brake light switch. It could make irregular contact with the sensor, which would make it work sometimes and at other times not. 10 bucks at AutoZone, all you need is a phillips head.
What fuse do you check on a 2012 accord
What's the first fuse that you mentions?
thank you, gonna check that when car arrives
Omgah 🤯 I've been driving around for years with a golf tee to get my car out of park. This whole time it was just a fuse!!
Thank you! Just got us out of a jam!
thank you!!! i have a crv but hoping this it will be similar. at least i have a starting point
Thanks ! Great video
Good video thanks for helping.
Good job. Thank you.
What's the name of both fuses I'm going through this now😔😔
Thanks man, I'm going to give it a go.
I believe that there is an existing hole for sticking in the screwdriver without removing any parts.
Older models do not.....my 2003 does thankfully!
Mark Abrahem my 94 accord has too
Thanks A LOT!! saved my life😊😊😊😊
whats the name of the tool you used to lift the cup holder?
What is the name of that fuse you had to replace ?
Thank you!
