Limp-Home Mode when put into Park 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be Steve in Beacon on  Mon Oct 23 10:06 CST 2023 [RELATED]

The simplicity of a 240 is a thing to behold!

I don;t have any engine issues with this car, just this infernal transmission problem.

Additional data I have shows faults--all the time, even when the transmission is operating properly, for:
MSEL (The mode selector switch) ERROR (and I have replaced it with more than one that an ohm meter says work properly, and:
GSEL POS (Gearshift lever signal position) ERROR

But there isn't much in the gearshift lever in the way of electronics, so I don't know what the code means!

Thanks for looking!
