Yen Estelles thank you so much for this video. I was stranded last night in a parking lot after a concert. Not fun. Thanks to KZbin, I found out how to release my shifter from park, and thanks to you, I was able to repair it today and with no extra parts lying around. It was a little more difficult to remove the panels than your video, but I got to it. There were parts all over my backyard, at some point I thought oh my I hope this fixes the problem. It did. While I was at it, I fixed the light that was burned in my console under the P R N D little sign, it was driving me nuts. I called the dealer for the part number of the light bulb replacement, the guy told me they don't repair that part, they sell a new console, I just hung up. There are plenty of video on KZbin that shows how to replace the part, I just didn't know the part number. I took the bulb at the car parts store, with my console parts on the passenger seat and the white plastic knob gear thingy sticking out and they found me a matching light bulb $5 for 2. Yeah, all fixed!!!! I owe you a beer or a nice bottle of rum.

[@pvcarmon1]

Thanks so much for the video wouldn't of been able to disassemble that console without it. With that said, I went to the dealer attempting to buy that switch and found that shifter assembly is NOT SERVICEABLE. You need to buy the entire assembly for $530 and change. The parts guy sold me a brake pedal switch and recommended I speak with a service advisor. They were no help and acted like they have never seen this problem before. I am so disgusted with Nissan this has been one of many other issues with that car. I bent the tab forward on the shifter switch and reinstalled everything and it works now. Thanks again you saved me a lot of time and broken plastic parts.

Great video but I would make a couple recommendations to someone doing this for the first time. First, watch the video in it's entirety so you understand the process, then watch it again but this time take notes of what he's doing and in what order. The reason is that he really doesn't go into putting things back together and it's easy to get ahead of yourself reassembling your car and before you know it you'll be taking things apart because you accidently skipped a step. Great video, super helpful. Thanks!

I’m pretty mechanically inclined so I watched your video very carefully and sure enough that was the exact issue that was taking place with that little white switch under rather the gear shifter.

[@sindysoria8422]

hey were you able to fix it with this video ?

[@Knubs01]

You may have posted this 5 years ago, but it's still relevant in Nov of 2022. My 2013 Altima had the exact same problem begin while we were on vacation out of state. I initially thought it was a transmission problem, so I was worried we'd be stranded. We eventually found out it wasn't that serious, so we used the work-around screwdriver solution for months, but my wife wanted it repaired. My shop quoted me $1200 for the repair, so thanks to your video, I decided to give it a shot on my own. It was scary even with your video, but I got it done. Some of the plugs were quite difficult to unplug, but that was probably the hardest thing. I couldn't "man-handle" that center section, but I was able to pry it out. Yes, the job did take me longer than it took you, but I had plenty of time & intentionally wanted to go slowly so I wouldn't break anything. Success! Thanks for posting this and saving me $1200. Now the real question is: How long will this fix last?? PS: I'm a little pissed that Nissan won't sell that little plastic replacement switch alone for $10. It comes out easily and unplugs, so you should not have to but a whole new shifter. They could then charge about an hour or so of labor to replace it. Actually, it's obviously a known defect, so they should just replace it at no charge. This is a perfect example of coorporate power & greed.

[@cubanpapimiami]

The electric portion of the contraption has a really long life. Tested to last over a million "cycles" but the weak part is the thin metallic level that actuates the switch. So if it stops working after a few months you just need to bend the tab once again. If your ever stuck you can take the key out of the fob and push the level with the key of the car in case you don't have a screwdriver handy.

[@Gibson99]

This switch was not the issue for my friend's 13 2.5 S but your video was still super valuable to show how to get into the console. I did not remove the entire console though - just the plastic strip on the right of the radio, then the vertical trim below radio, and the cup holder part. Once that was off, I had no trouble getting to the shifter itself, including removing it from inside the console. However, since this switch wasn't the issue here, I just popped off the little arm that the solenoid was moving as well as the piston and spring from the solenoid. Now you can shift out of park without pressing the brake. No it's not a perfect solution, but way better than futzing with the shift lock release every single time it gets driven. Besides, if someone gets into your car to steal it, c that release is pretty common knowledge on almost every make and model, so this isn't really disabling any sort of anti theft thing. And the habit of pressing the brake to shift out of park is already so ingrained in everyone by now, I don't think it'll really be an issue. The owner of this car doesn't have small kids so no danger there either. Long story short, THANK YOU for this video!

Great video, very helpful. Instead of bending the metal and risking something else failing later on down the line, I just cut the top off the entire plastic tab with a Dremel. Don’t really care about the safety interlock. I don’t know how you were able to pull that trim off like it was nothing, I swear every piece of trim that I pull off takes 2-3x the amount of force you used and I’m afraid it was going to snap off in my hand. I guess there’s an art to it. Not to mention like many in the comments, a shop quoted $900+ to fix the issue. Totally worth it to just do this instead.

I cannot begin to tell you how appreciative I am that you made this video. I am fairly handy but there is no way I could have done this job without this video. I have a 2013 Nissan Altima with the same issue. I followed the video step by step, pausing and rewinding when I needed to. Spoiler alert, it worked GREAT and the vehicle is working again. The only caveat is that it is a little more difficult to put it all back together than it first appears, but just take your time and work in reverse and it can be done. Again, many thanks for making this video, I've given it a like and a subscribe.

Excellent video, thank you so much for posting it! Amazon and Walmart both show a replacement switch kit with harness and OEM plugs to fit for 2013 through 2017 Nissan Altima. $50 ! if the original switch has not failed, bending the tab on the switch up as shown in the video should definitely fix the problem but not sure for how long...I have used that repair technique for over 40 years on various types of machinery and devices. It is definitely the most cost-effective solution LOL. This project is enough labor time that I think I will go for the new switches and improved positioning brackets that might prevent the problem from ever happening again.

Nissan in Ohio wanted me to drop my car off.... so they could figure out the problem! They shut down will know what the problem is already, if I can easily find it on KZbin. Thanks to this video, I am doing this right now with my wife’s father. Thanks for taking the time, to save us common people over $1000 worth of charges.

Thanks for posting this awesome video. I fixed my identical problem but not as fast as this guy did. This video saved me IDK how much at a mechanic or dealership. Makes you proud of yourself after achieving this fix.

Thank you so much!! It took my dad and I about an hour since I have a different model. But this was so helpful and awesome! Thank you so much. You saved me hundreds of dollars

Thank you for such an amazing tutorial. Followed along and fixed my 2013 Altima lockout issue perfectly. Only took me like 2 hrs to fix it for FREE.

Wow, a very detailed walkthrough, and a HUGE money saver!!!! Unfortunately for me, it looks like a lot has to be disassembled, maybe too much especially since I know ZERO about cars. However I very much appreciate your video, it’s definitely going to help out a lot of people.
