Really fixed this time 👍🏻 Shifter Repair Kit New Set of 2pcs For 13-17 Nissan Altima Pathfinder 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 www.amazon.com/dp/B07HF6C66C/...
My girlfriends car just started doing this. I found if you push the lever forward really hard it will unlock. Will be replacing that part now. Thank you!
@ 3 mins - there are two switches in the kit because it is intended to replace both of the two switches in the shifter assembly. One is the lower one that you are changing which is the park position sensor switch, the other switch is higher up on the shifter mechanism and is the reverse position sensor switch. Both switches are known to Nissan to be high failure points. Of course they were too cheap to ever do a recall on it.
Yea someone recently commented on one of my two videos in this issue and made me realize the second one is also for the my vehicle. I didn’t know it was for the reverse position. I actually still have it in my shed in the bag because I like to save everything but good thing I did just in case you never know. Regardless been shifting strong ever since. Thanks for the info!
Question, have you ran into this problem ever since you replaced the switches? Just curious because there is also a switch on the brake pedal next to the brake switch that also engages that solenoid.
@@franny3451 in my experience the solenoid is only actuated by the second switch mounted at the brake pedal. The two switches up at the shifter are the parked position and reverse position sensors. True though if the park position switch were to fail open it would block the signal from getting to the solenoid so it is part of the circuit. The reverse position sensor is what tells the ECM to turn the backup lights and camera display on the dash when in reverse.
This helped a lot! I just did the same thing: I used electrical tape make it thicker so it can click. I’m going to buy the replacement soon but this’ll be a for-now thing. Thank you! Taking apart the console wasn’t too tough, either. With small research I figured out how to take it apart.
crock crock 1 your best bet is to find the one that’s in your versa and actually match it up yourself find the part number on it.. I don’t do replace things any other way
I'm about to take my car in for it's regular service and to investigate why my shifter stuck in park. It being stuck is intermittent and your video makes a lot of sense. I was wondering if my transmission was going, or the fluid was low...the service department might check all kinds of things but who knows if they know about this or would tell me it's such a simple fix so thank you!
Same problems I have it with my nissan sunny n16 I can't move my vehicle from park to drive I have to press shift interlock button ...so what to do in that .....? How do I fix that problem..?
hey, I clicked on your link and it said, "sorry we couldn't find your page." do you know somewhere I could purchase it from. and what is the exact name of that piece? I tried looking at the name I got off the package up and couldn't find it?
try to bend the metal part outward of the switch,,,,hold the part that touch the little plastic nipple and at the same time bend it outward,,what happens is it straightens with time and doesnt push all the way to activate the nipple part,,,,this way you dont but those switches'''''''''
Chubbs I would say there’s maybe one or two parts you might get stuck but overall It’s really it’s not too too difficult. You should be able to search a how to for it
I have a 2014 but the console looks the same. But trying to find the oem part number for my year i can't find the part with the metal arm. Is it the solenoid because the diagram for my year shows the solenoid only being the metal box with blue protective wrap. Do you have the part number
or you could've just gotten one of those electric reciprocating saw (jig saw) and cut off the top part of the white plastic mount, that it drives up to keep the shifter in the lock position. Cut it off about half way. You would still have to push the buttons in to move the shifter.

Very few would tell you when it's 800.00 for two solenoids.
Thanks you IT was very helpful👍👍👍
Thank you for the video.
Thank you very much for saving us from the dishonest mechanic
Do you have a video of how to take apart console? I have same problem just can’t figure out how to remove console to access problem?
That switch is for the altima/pathfinder...did it work for the sentra?
Thank you!

My same problem solved.
If you haven't changed it for long time, try it expecting quick fix.
Good luck.

Just stuck a stick in the slot and fixed...

Amigo, where can I buy the solenoide?
Where’s the Amazon link for the part? I can’t find it

Am confused. Part is for Pathfinder, Altima. Is it compatible for my 2013 Sentra S ? Currently this part unavailable. I live in Ontario Canada.
@@peterwilliams2840 it says Nissan Pathfinder Altima ….
You could just replace the microswitch. they are about a dollar.
