I have a 2004 ford explorer XLT. I'm unable to get the car out of park. My break lights do work?
I'm at an incline with rear facimg downwards. I've located the break shift interlock slot but not exactly sure how to override it. And yes I do have my foot on the break when switching.
Push the pin or detent with credit card while wiggling the shifter.
Did you use the parking brake? Fords are known to be hard to get out of park when there's a load against the parking pawl such as being on an incline. If using the bypass doesn't get it you will need to have someone or a tow truck pull you just enough to take the strain off the transmission.Next time when parking on an incline with your foot on the brake and your vehicle in neutral set the parking brake then release your foot then place in park. When you are ready to go then put it in drive before releasing the parking brake
P.m.k. Got this one right, but for today, either rock the vehicle forward and back while pulling the shifter, or jack up the rear axle and spin the tire.
- 99 Ford ranger XLT base model. Park lights, dash lights, and license plates lights out I checked online and realized it was probably a fuse which it is. Fuse 11 in my power distribution box. The problem is I keep replacing at and soon as I turn on my lights it blows instantly. Have replaced it multiple times. So then I looked under my truck and disconnected the wiring to my taillights and replaced the fuse, it worked it didn't blow. Dash lights and license plates lights were on so I figured some where there's a problem with the brake lights. Any suggestions?

- My gear shifter won't come out of park, my a/c, windshield wipers, and windows will not work? I have a 2001 ford focus zx3. I took it to a mechanic and he can't see me until Tuesday. He did look under the hood and said it wasn't anything simple. I've heard many things like battery cables, my computer or a fuse. What's wrong with my car and how much is it going to be to fix it?
- My 2000 reg ford focus just cut out when i applied the foot break, the battery, oil & engine lights came on? Even though it wouldnt drive it didn't turn off, so i turned it off then back on again after 1 minute & it was fine. Why would this happen?
