SOURCE: mazda3 gear selector won't light up ''P'' for park
I had the same problem and I fixed it by oiling the gear shaft beside the transmission tank. There is no taking apart anything in the transmision but instead the shaft that is visible under the car I oiled.

under the dash on driver side thare is a gearshift cable bracket. get a flashlight and remove the underdash cover then look under dash while wiggling gearshift and you will see gearshift cable.the bracket that holds this cable has 2 or 3 screws and over time will back out and cause shifting problems. thay need to be tightend. these screws have torx bit heads on them so you will need a torx bit set to tighten

DIsconnext and reconnect the linkage at the transmission. You may want top replace the linkage cable all together. Make sure you set the parking break and block the tires
SOURCE: car does not start/crank
have 1979 rolls royce silver shadow 2 have no power to starter is this a relay problem?
SOURCE: gear shift is real hard shifting into park position
shifter linkage needs adjustment or something has fallen in to shifter mechanism
CAUTION
Since you must work under the vehicle to adjust most shift linkages make sure you properly raise and support the vehicle before working under it. Also, wear safety glasses or goggles while working under the vehicle.
A voltmeter can be used to check the switch for voltage when the ignition key is turned to the START position with the shift lever in PARK or NEUTRAL. If there is no voltage, the switch should be adjusted or replaced.
The backup lamps will light whenever the ignition switch is in the RUNposition and the transaxle is in REVERSE. On older vehicles, this function was handled by a dedicated switch with a name such as the Neutral/Safety Backup Light Switch, or something similar. This switch was designed to keep the engine from starting in any gear except PARK and/or NEUTRAL. The switch contacts also activated the backup lights when the transaxle was placed in REVERSE.
On the vehicles covered by this manual, the backup lamp control function is part of an integrated switch called the Transaxle Range switch (sometimes also called the Park/Neutral Position or PNP switch). In addition to turning on the backup lights, the Transaxle Range switches primary function is to transmit to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) the driver's transaxle range selection. The PCM uses this information to control both engine and transaxle functions electronically.
The Transaxle Range switch is mounted externally on the transaxle. New service replacement switches come pinned in the NEUTRAL position and no adjustment should be necessary. Please note that if the switch requires adjustment, GM recommends that their special tool J 41545 Park/Neutral Switch Alignment Tool be used to properly adjust the Transaxle Range switch, if required.
