Thank you! My poor old Volvo has had quite a few needs these past several months. It's nice to know there's something she's grumpy about that I don't have to bug my husband about. This mechanic's daughter can handle this by herself!

[@PistonShack]

Great to hear this video helped you out Lonnie! How is your repair, btw?

[@lonniedandrea5866]

@@PistonShack The car was just cold and grumpy about it. So I let it it warm up while I helped the kids get coats, hats and gloves. It ran great for a full round of errands. If it does get genuinely stuck, believe me, I will be watching your video again.

[@angelpereira5933]

The music does not let us hear the explanation of the mechanic

[@PistonShack]

Good morning! That was bad idea to add that audio clip but I cannot delete it. Thanks for watching)

[@michaelschnupp4849]

I concur that the music is drowning out the instruction during the middle part of the video. Information is good for what I was able to hear, thank you

[@PistonShack]

Hi Michael! Sorry about that. I don't like it ether but I cannot delete it. That was poor idea to add that music clip to the video. Thanks for watching and subscribing.

[@alexelazerez3985]

I think this guy knew that all you guys were going to be annoyed by the music so that's why he flipped everyone off at min_3:55 lol

[@chrisramos2706]

Thanks for the video. I’ve been dealing with this issue for the last month and finally got it fixed.

[@PistonShack]

You're so welcome Chris! Happy Holidays!

[@jenninemclaughlin3522]

Great video but I can hardly hear you the music is so loud.

[@PistonShack]

Hi Jennine! Sorry about that. I cannot change that now. I am glad it helped you out.

[@LanaBarcelos]

Very helpful easy for a girl to handle thank you!!

[@PistonShack]

Glad it was helpful!

[@az1996az]

Do you have the video white out music?

[@joeshow8815]

when you went to school did the teacher play music in class that made you struggle to understand what was she saying? Why does everyone trying to combine a lecture with a concert ? Beats me.

[@Mhfksvbnjf]

😢 i can’t find correct solinoid for mine c30 ,only if buy from German and only for huge price and wait about month

[@bikeman_8527]

Hey, thanks for the video! I have gear stuck on Park too. Xc90 2006. But: 1. switch works 100% (lights turn red as I press the pedal) 2. no errors in message center 3. solinoid works too, at least I fell vibration as I press the pedal and I see that plastic part with "teeth" moves. 4. gearbox lever button works too, I removed it and center core moved normally as I press the button. 5. I even checked the 19th 7.5A fuse on a side panel near a driver's door. What did I miss?

[@PistonShack]

Hi bikeman_85 Hmmm... 1) check for any damages to the snifter linkage; 2) look for any liquid spills corrosion on electrical board inside gear selector - very common; 3) test shift look solenoid; 4) disconnect cable from the gear box then try to shift by hand; 5) check wiring harness down to the gear box and TCM 6) take selector cover off and look for any contamination or broken parts. Well, that what I can think right now. Yeah, let me know if you have any questions or what did you found. Cheers!

[@bikeman_8527]

@@PistonShack Thanks! At this moment I noted that indicator on a dashboard do not show current gearbox selected, it's just blank. It might be a problem with PNP Inhibitor Switch (car do not know which gear I'm at). I've unlocked the handle with a white button press button and are able to drive car. Also, previously I had a problem with a rainwater coming inside an interior, a fuse box #3 (where pedals are) was wet, but I cleaned all strains on fuses there. Which fuses are responsible for gear indicator on a dashboard? Also, there is a red plastic part with a spring and cable (on driver's side, near reset button), it's related to ignition locking mechanism. it's designed to block the ignition key if selector is not in P position. Maybe it works in both ways? i.e. telling the selector that the key is inside and turned to II = Can move to drive mode? As I understood, there are 3 requirements to move gearbox selector from P to any other position: key is inside and in II, brake pedal is pressed, gear selector lever is pressed.

[@PistonShack]

@@bikeman_8527 Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. I learned a few new things from you today. Check fuse #24 10A (fuse box in the passenger compartment) but I don't think that is fuse issue - look for the open circuit, poor ground, most likely due to corrosion or broken/lose connection. Check if your get signal from the ignition key lock down to the selector, brake pedal. Locate any moisture spots as rust/corrosion/ water marks ect. Rain water can cost a lot of frustration with electrical circuits and other components. Trace wiring from the spot where you got some moisture down to the shift selector, brake pedal and ignition switch. Can you start the engine with your key? If key isn't recognized or immobilizer defective it can effect gear selector operation. Let me know how everything is going. Thanks!

[@bikeman_8527]

@@PistonShack Problem solved! The problem was in a cable, coming from an ignition. It was unable to push completely the white plastic button, which unlocks "P". It is working, but missing a few millimeters to complete the operation. Installed a new one and all went fine. Also, CEM seems fine, it was mildly touched by rainwater but no sign of corrosion. While I was fighting with this problem, my car battery becomes empty, and I was unable to start the engine hehe, used another car to ignite. Battery worn level is 45%, so i guess its time to get a new one, especially as winter is coming. Thanks again for the discussion and a video!

Mumbling but thorough.

Oh yeah, but thanks for watching. Have good one.

[@clleon28]

Please People, if your going to make an instruction video, Speak up! where we can hear you and turn down the music, or rather off😒

[@PistonShack]

Good point Leo! I regraded that music I added to the video. I cannot remove it now. That's how you learn when you started making video) Thanks for watching I hope it helped you out!

[@407X]

I have the same car. I have the same problem today. This was the first video I clicked on. I appreciate the effort that was made during the video. However I must say that the music on the second half of the video was louder than your voice and you were drowned out and it was hard to understand you. So I gave the video a thumbs down but it's not the end of the world, just fix it okay?

[@lindatisdale6255]

How do you get the Volvo out of park when it's stuck when it's not running

[@PistonShack]

Good question. I haven't done it before.

[@MichaelTrebatoski]

Need to shut down the music so we can hear the proper sound of the solenoid operating.

[@pvickers6274]

I got a 2005 dodge durango and the gear is on the steering column and I can't get it in gear

[@PistonShack]

Check your transmission lock shifter solenoid activation while pressing the brake pedal. Sometimes worn out brake pedal switch can cause solenoid stayed on.

[@pvickers6274]

So if won't come out of park do the same thing

[@beautifulmountain6590]

I agree, please do the video without the music

[@dancasey5759]

Drop the music. It detracts from what otherwise would be a good video.

[@PistonShack]

Hi Dan, Let's ee what I can do. I don't like that music ether.

[@mehdiaria2]

Too much noise in video,music to loud in background.

[@PistonShack]

Indeed. I regraded it later. Thanks for your feedback.

[@loboesj]

Thank you but the music is annoying too loud.

Cheers!

cant hear the solenoid because of the loud music please take off the music then its good!

Turn off f ing music

I agree, John. That's good idea. I will try to do that.

[@zsolteditor]

why the hell did u put that music? pfff

[@PistonShack]

That was stupid idea. I regraded it later - Live and Learn!

[@zsolteditor]

@@PistonShack perfect, :) learn that music will get old over time as transitions. So, use drones (as music background and no transitions on video). That will make a video timeless.

[@zsolteditor]

and now a question about my S60 from 2008 (facelift), automatic, 2.0T. When i put in "R" the car moves a bit and it has a weird low pitch sound (as u don't press the clutch fully in a non-automatic car). What can be wrong? Other gears switch ok and smooth.

[@vanhees-ey1wk]

You better don t play de music wile you are talking.

Good point Van! That was poor idea to add that music.
