Mister Tshirt Posted April 27, 2021 My 2012 NV3500 work van has recently started giving me trouble getting out of park. Is there a linkage or a lockout relay or some such thing that could be loose or bad? any help would be appreciated! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jerry Posted May 13, 2021 The only time I have problems is when I’m running heavy or on a steep incline and I don’t use the e-brake. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aztec Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) Could be the lock pin. I had an E150 that did that. I got pissed, yanked on the shift lever, and later found the pin on the floor. Well, half of it anyway. Never bothered me again. Edit: I looked at the schematic. There is something called the "key interlock cable" which might be involved. Apparently it's a part that can wear out. Also, when you park, try putting the van in neutral, then setting the parking brake, then letting off on the brakes to let the parking brakes take the load, and lastly shift into park. If that makes the issue go away, you have a work around. Edited May 14, 2021 by aztec 1 radin2son reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
