I need to change gear selector knob on a 2012
the knob is usually screwed on like a nut the chrome ring under the knob is usually the lock nut so if you turn it down the lever a bit the knob should screw off normally
Some are held on with a very small grub screw in the bottom of the knob in which case you will have to undo the grub screw to get the knob to come off
next suggest is to go to a service dealer and ask how to get the knob off.

Selector switch will not change for defrost, floor, or panel no matter what the dial is set on. Checked the gates behind the dash and they all seem to move. any ideas?
remove the selector knob and look for a crack in the sleeve that slides down on the switch it is known to be a problem this vehicle has electric blend door actuators when you change dial do you hear a clicking sound if so the gears are stripped in one of the actuators if not while you have knob off of the selector switch take a pair of needle nose pliers and turn switch if it changes it,s the knob if not then could be the selector switch

I have a 1994 Merc Grand Marquis and the gear selector does not go into park and remains in neutral, the selector does not line up with the corresponding gears on the dash guage. Is there a cable or rod...
no it goes from streering column to the dash view with a rope like cable, you have to remove the plate under the column to find the area needed to fix
