Shift Problems
From Bones46@webtv.net
I am leasing a Hyundai 2001Accent GL with an intermittent shifting problem. Sometimes the shifter doesnt work right away after the car has parked for a while. On page 2-6 of the owners manual it states: If you cannot move the shift lever from the P position to any other position with the brake pedal fully depresed and the ignition key in the On position, remove the cap on the console with a thin object such as a pencil , push the shift lock release button down. Then, with the brake pedal depressed , move the shift lever to the desired position, then the button will automatically return to its original position after sfifting from the P position. Then, reinstall the cap. Have the system checked by your Hyundai dealer. I used all kinds of devices to remove the cap and couldnt do it. So after yesterday when the shifter wouldnt shift I called the 24 hour emergency roadside assistance. I was at work and wanted to go home. After about 20 minutes the shifter was working and I cancelled the assistance. This morning I took the car to my dealer and service dept checked it out. They claim they couldnt find a problem. They were able to remove the cap and it is off now. The service rep said if the shift has a problem again hopefully you will be nearby. What a dumb thing to say I thought!! I am not very happy with the Hyundai service. Has anybody had a shift lock release problem or anything I stated?

Re: Shift Problems
At this point, the problem could be anything that causes the soleniod to
unlock the shifter, even a faulty brake light switch. |
