Stuck in Park
Hey, My 1995 Jaguar XJ6 is stuck in park. Replaced starter and runs now but wont shift. I have red up some on it. Did take star out and did engage to drive, but still not shifting. No brake lights, no click noise of brake being depressed. Have not checked fuses. Not sure which to check and where. Any info or remedies. Thanks much

If you're not hearing a click noise, that's the solenoid that locks the shifter in place till you press the brake pedal. You'll need to take the shifter trim ( wooden ski slope ) out of the way and the center console as well. It should a 2 way white connector. Would help to check fuses as well.

Faulty brake light switch is likely.
The click come from the shift lock solenoid. The shift lock solenoid is operated by the brake light switch.
'Sometimes' jabbing the brake pedal very hard gives temporary relief.

Check this thread out......because jamming the brake pedal hard is temporary and its really not hard to fix except for having to be upside down for awhile ;-)
