Anyone ever replaced parts inside the auto shifter? I cannot get my jeep out of park unless I take off the "T" handle and press the plastic plunger with my thumb. Am I missing a spring or something below the plunger? I can not find any drawings that show internal parts. Thanks for the help.
 
Sounds like the solenoid that unlocks the shifter isn't doing its thing..
 
If it was a solenoid problem, wouldn't it not work at all or at least every now and then. It seems to me that the plunger gets hung and doesn't spring back up after I press the button the first time to get it out of park. If I take it all apart and put it back together it will work one time to get out of park but will not work to put back in park. If I leave off the "T" and press the plunger with my thumb I can drive it normally.
