Hi, Selection problem started yesterday. '57 plate L200 elegance. It goes into Reverse every time. It goes into Drive 20% of time and drives lovely and gearbox is fine. The other 80% of time, Drive flashes on dashboard but then blank, and it will not engage Drive. Is there a kit of nylon bushes to help selection like my Father's Volvo V-40? Is it likely to be electronic? Is there a chance the whole transmission would need to come out? Thanks.

Welcome to the forum!

First thing to note is that only a few members will be able to see your thread in this section so, if you've not already PMd your details to "Admin", do that real quick so that smarter people than me can comment. If you can't figure out how to PM Admin, then click on the "PM" link over there ---->>> and I'll forward on to them.
It normally takes around 24 hours to get upgraded.


Back to your truck, I'm assuming it's an automatic! What kind of miles has it done and have you had the Auto Transmission Fluid changed?

Hi I have the same issue, D will not illuminate when hot, is fine cold , I have replaced the inhibiter switch and calibrated it, oil level is fine and drives superb , however soon as it's hot the D will disappear from the dash illumination and won't drive .... Help!

A few members have had issues with the wiring looms to the auto box, may be worth looking at that
