2005 hyundai accent will not come out park i cannot push the button down to move to drive

Make sure the brake lights are coming on if not the release solenoid that unlocks park gets no power and will not release the shifter from park position. Also check the owner's manual for a possible way to override the solenoid lock.

Hima: I don't know, but I have heard it suggested that a person can set an alarm for 11:50 AM, then run outside with some battery wrenches and at 11:58 disconnect the battery for a minute. That should start it about at the right time.

The overdrive will only come into use when the transmission module reads the correct revs/ road speed ratio. Switch if off for heavy city traffic driving to improve economy when it moves up and down all the time. No it will not harm the transmission otherwise.

One way to find out would be to raise one rear wheel and see if you can turn it. If you can't the brake is locked on.

there is a sensor on the brake that allows you to shift out of park, sounds like its going bad. good luck

first check the transmission fluid. does the engine sound like its reving up more then normal?

on most cars when u step on the brake pedal youll hear a "click" near the center console which is the shift solenoid releasing the "lock" on the floor shifter allowing the shifter to come out of park.check to make sure all the fuses are good and check the brake lite switch(es) and wiringfrom brake lite switch to shifter solenoid.a wiring diagram always helps.

shifter or linkage is damaged or out of adjustment or tranny park gear is damaged!

One of two places. Look in trunk bolted to fender well, you will have to pull back carpet. OR On passenger side kick panel under dash. Basiclly if you were sitting in pass seat it would be right next your right foot again pull back carpet.
either place the switch will be a push/reset button.
