00 Expedition trans shifts late and hard

the 1997 explore wont come out of park sometimes until you put your foot on the brake

FOOT ON THE BRAKE THE MOVE GEAR

its a safety feature in case your on a hill & for children if left in the car / wagon 4x4 it wont roll away on you

very smart really .

that\'s a floor shift not Colum shift but still might be the same . it still gets me to this day THAT LOL good luck

your column eather shot or check your linkige from your column to tranney

sounds like its time to rebuild it including a new shift valve body

check shifter linkage. maybe something obstructing shift,hope this helps!!

You may have a problem with the gear shift interlock which is mounted on the brake pedal assembly

Change fluid and trans filter check magnet in trans pan for metal clean pan with a rag refill with senthic fluid leave a court low let it idle till hot then add a bottle of trans x or lucas leave idlen work the trans from 1st to park letting the trans take gear an let it stay in gear for a little bit then back to park that help move the fluid threw the trans drive easy for a week ir you Lucas pore half qurt of trans fluid in use the rest of fluid to thin down Lucas its really thick repeat till the bottle of lacus is in I hope this helps

You just need to adjust the gear shift linkage

Make sure you have brake lamps. The shift interlock solenoid is powered by the brake lamp switch.

Make sure you have brake lights first.This is what triggers it to come out of park.If they are ok the shifter will need to be replaced.If this vehicle has less than 36K miles this may be covered under manufactuers warranty.Ford has a techincal service bulletin out on this concern the nymber is 07-12-9.
