Hi,
I was having this werid problem and I'm was wondering if anyone could help out:
one night driving home, I notice my headlights dimm out, so I stop and turn off my car and check the headlights, I found that the battery post are quite dirty and i clean it. Then I started up the car again and the headlight was back on. So when I was ready to shift from Park to Drive and go home, but it would let me. I try multiple times to shift away from Park with good amount of strenght and it still will not work.
Later on the night I went back to where the car was and restarted, i notice the headlight are very dimmed but still on, so i gave it another try to shift from park to any other position, but still can't. So my buddy suggest that I might not have enough power to shift gears so he gave me a jump from his car, and the headlight came back to full and I was able to shift again.
So when i got home, once i put the car back in the Park position and try shifting to neutral/R/Drive, etc it will not work again.
Does anyone has any thought on this?
thanks in advance
