Hi,

Do you mean the indicator won't show park or neutral or does the transmission always stay engaged? I'm asking because if it is always engaged, that is an internal issue with a clutch pack. If it is the indicator, chances are the transmission range sensor is faulty.

Let me know. Also, let me know if you have other questions.

Take care and God Bless,

Joe
