What to Do When the Automatic Transmission P Gear Is Locked?
1 Answers
The solutions for a locked automatic transmission P gear are: 1. Release the brake pedal, then press it again firmly, and attempt to shift gears; 2. If that doesn't work, try slightly turning the steering wheel before shifting gears; 3. If it still doesn't work, restart the engine, press the brake again firmly, and then shift gears; 4. Open the hood, disconnect the battery, then reconnect it, start the engine, press the brake firmly again, and shift gears. These methods usually resolve a stuck P gear issue. If the P gear remains stuck and cannot be shifted, it is likely due to a damaged gear position limit switch, brake light switch, or brake light fuse. In such cases, it is necessary to contact a 4S dealership for emergency repairs.
