>>Wayne, you wrote..."The shifter was an effect from the lock button accidently being on the dash. Why is there a lock button anyway?"
~~ What lock button on the dash are you referring to?
>> Are you near Ocala or The Villages? Perhaps I can help. More than likely, the puddle is a result of the "O" ring failure at the point where the Transmission harness cable inserts into the transmission. There is an "O" ring that fails and will leak, if left in this condition for too long, it is possible for the fluid to "wick" up to the transmission control module and ruin it. It is an easy and cheap fix. There are dip sticks available for our cars. Rob at NeedsWings dot com has them. Temperature of the fluid is important when reading the dip stick.
