Fault-tracing information
Check that the drive shaft is engaged in the transmission. This determines whether the park lock in the transmission is not functioning.
If one of the drive shafts is out of position, this can result in the symptom "park lock not working".
Causes of interference can be:
- that one or both of the drive shafts is not in position, so that there is no engagement in the transmission.
