Alphard Club Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Hi Stephen, have you press the small button down and try and shift the lever whilst button is held down?? Also, may find that the brake pedal needs to be press down before shifting, there could be an issue with the witch on the pedal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.ac Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I saw a youtube video on changing this switch - I think I recall that there are actually 2 switchs, one is for the break lights, one activates the selonoid that releases the gearshift and allows engine to start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen G Posted January 30, 2022 Author Share Posted January 30, 2022 Fuse number 23 It was a7.5 fuse on the passenger side behind the glove box looking for the floor pan up which was a hard job to do good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the fuse puller out of the fuse box in engine bay, makes it a little easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
