    Thanks EyeOnAiman, this is exactly what i needed i have the exact same car. The gear lever solenoid is malfunctioning causing gear lever to be sometimes stuck in park. Removing just one trim i could see the white plastic mechanism not always moving fully when pressing the brake pedal causing the stuck in park. I know there are other videos who identify the thumb switch, or the brake switch as the problem or a blown fuse but it's neither of these 3 in my case !! Thanks to your video i am hopefully going to be able to look at what is wrong with the solenoid mechanism.

    • @EyeOnAiman
      @EyeOnAiman  5 років тому

      No we haven't remove the entire front console. It looks like a tough job because you have to remove everything, but I think it should be manageable. Perhaps it's easier for you to just cut portion of the plastic using dremmel tool instead of taking everything apart. Cut section you want and then glue it back together, especially in section where it's not visible...

My Accord the gear shifter is just gliding back and forth showing only neutral and I'm told the pin has been dislodged and I know nothing about crap. Watching this video seems to be somewhat where I need to get into to find this supposed pin to replace or put back. If you could respond so I may get in touch with you man I'd owe you.

    I've got the same year and model Accord, after watching your video, have you ever done a video showing how to fix the lightning system that illuminates the transmission mode (Park, Neutral, Reverse and drives), the reason being mine no longer lights up and stays dark even with the headlights on. Assume the fuses are good, is there the Lightning strip or bulb? If it's a bulb, that's easy enough but if it's a light strip, that's a different story or fix.

    • @NoPointOfThis123

      dlj20607 Its just a bulb on the side all you have to do is take the shift bezel/trim off and it takes a 194 bulb. I didn’t even use a screwdriver to take the trim off I just pulled it off with my hands.
