2010 Automatic Shifter Solenoid won’t open…stuck in Park

I recently had to charge my battery on my 2010 GT Convertible…done it many times. When done, I found it interesting that the dome lights didn’t come on when I opened the door, but the window electronically shifted down, so I knew there was power. The car started normally, but I was getting all sorts of caution lights…Advance Trac, TPS, others. But more disturbing, when I went to shift to drive, it won’t come out of PARK. The solenoid won’t open to allow shifting.

Any hints on how I can at least get it to shift so I can drive to Dealer?

Thanks in advance

Hi Casey,

To my knowledge, all cars with an automatic transmission that features a shift lock also come with an override for that lock. In your case it can be found on page 203 of your owners manual.

So what I ended up doing was disconnecting the battery all together for a day or so. Then when I hooked it back up, all was well. Taking power away completely reset the electronics. Just lucky...

I don't know if you're having the same issue I did, but in the shifter, if you actually take it apart, there's a little tiny solenoid. You can actually just break it and bypass it, but of course you can then shift the car whether it has a key in it or not and that can kind of be dangerous but it does solve the problem without you having to go to a mechanic or something and that's something that does fail often.
