Auto box.

Post by Mick123 » Mon Feb 15, 2021 11:56 pm

My auto box in my 07 swift sometimes can't be taken out of park unless I press the shift lock button. Also sometimes it won't start in drive again until I press the shift lock button and put it in neutral. This doesn't happen all the time but it's getting worse. I think it's a solenoid switch somewhere but don't really know for sure. When driving, everything works as it should. Cheers, mick.

When you say sometimes you cannot get out of 'Park' - do you mean with the engine running ?
We have an 05 Vitara Auto and it will not start in 'Drive' - it has to be either in Park or Neutral to start.
Having said that our Auto Box is an old slush box type with a plain gear lever running straight fore and aft with unlock button on the side of the top of gear lever - I have no idea what sort of Auto Box the 07 Swift has .
