no this isn't Marvel's latest alt-right super hero, its what appeared on my daughter's 2000 V-70 this weekend. The little white arrow on the speedo display, that usually lights up is the vehicle is not in the optimum shift position, began to flash. She called me to say that the car had transmission problems, but when I got there. some 15 minutes later, the car shifted fine and the fluid level was correct. Any theories as to the cause and a fix?

    Try shifting to "R" and see if the backup lights come on. Your PNP switch may be getting crusty. When the shift light blinks, try 'rowing' the shifter from R to L with the engine off, about 20 times. If the arrow turns off in D after that, I would suspect the PNP will need replacing soon.
