Car Forum / Honda Cars / January 2007Won't sh.t from Park after stopping.
Car: 1991 Honda Accord Wagon Problem: Once I put my car in Park and come back later to start it it won't sh.t. I have to use the key to do the reset for the sh.t and only then it will shift. The problem started as the weather started getting pretty cold about ten days back. Does anyone know what the problem is and how to resolve it? P.S The car doesn't have problems shifting to drive etc. and I don't think it suffer from the famous broken shift cable syndrome. It just gets locked into Park. Thanks to all in advance. Dave I hate it when my car won't sh.t. I find a couple of teaspoons of dietary fibre, say Metamucil, into the petrol tank will usually clear any constipation. I took my car to the park yeterday, it sh.t just fine. A real bitch to clean up! If you mean SHIFT, check the cables. What year, etc?

Stop sh.tting me and lets talk shift ok? Never mind, its the brake light switch. >I took my car to the park yeterday, it sh.t just fine. A real bitch to >clean up!

Any other thoughts. =============================== The adjustment only has to be out a turn or two to make it malfunction, and things shrink when it's cold outside. You could also remove the access cover at the tranny end and lubricate the moving parts with good silicone grease or ATF. Any stiffness will be amplified in the cold.

All Hondas have the same (basic) adjustment. I wouldn't sh.t you. 'Curly' |
