Default Re: Automatic Transmission gearshifter stuck

Update, Mommas ride is fixed!

It was the solenoid in the SLA gone bad.

I received the replacement from ebay, $210. The first thing I did was compare it with mine, it was cleaner and identical. However, the solenoid on the new one was spring loaded and mine was not, so the spring in mine is broke. The spring action is what allows the shifter to return from neutral forward.

There was evidence of a previous owner spilled coke all over the place.

I dare to mention part numbers again, ahhhhh, but there are numbers on the solenoid, I don't think they are MB but just standard electronic whatever and maybe find one and fix the old SLA.

After finishing I had a few console screws left but its all done and good.

So add this to the list of fixes and thank you for all your help.
