Description of the problem | Stopped suv on incline on remote portion of post canyon road in hood river county, or. Upon restarting vehicle, and placing it into drive, the vehicle rolled slightly backwards and hit the park latch, stopping immediately. Indicator above shift knob and dashboard gear indicator both flashing. Engine revved when pressing accelerator, vehicle not in gear. Put back in park and tried again, same result. Tried reverse and neutral. Same result. Stopped engine, restarted and tried shifting into any gear again, same result. After some 15-20 minutes of trying, and lightly pressing on brake, got the car to go into reverse. Backed up as far as i could to get car pointed down hill, but car would still not go into drive, flashing the indicators again. After another 10 minutes or so of trying various combinations, got car into drive by very lightly pressing brake and rolling forward in drive. Vehicle was then normal. If this happened in traffic, it could be very hazardous as one could be hit by another vehicle, not expecting a stopped vehicle in a travel lane. Internet search indicates other dodge/ram owners with problem exactly as described by me. Transmission control module, or logic therein would appar to be the cause., do not know if something has failed, but normal operation since that time indicates otherwise. |
