Well gping from park to drive 1 flickered - is this the dreaded knackered selector switch issue?

ANyone know how easy to swap over?

Sorry Martin I have one of those manual things  ;)  No switch to fail.  :y

Thats OK I smashed my left knee at 20 by riding into the side of a car (their fault) and snapped a tendon in left ankle 6 years ago so an auto is good for my leg.

It is OK, I can walk, cycle, drive manuals on open roads but it hurts a lot when stuck in traffic.

Let's hope it's something simple then and not the selector switch  :-/

dont know to much about the Omegabox but on the senny box ar35 you can clean the selector switch internals qute easily!! they are usually full of crud and it gives the wrong values so sends the box ecu into a fault !!

Sometimes, all my gear lights light up all at the same time!! Never had any problems changing/selecting gears, so I've always ignored it, my Omega is a workhorse ;D

Ive noticed that on mine before......sometimes 1/2/3 lights flicker when going from P to D.....its never affected anything......so ive ignored it too  ::)

Mine currently does this, and I believe it is the selector switch.

I also have various other problems with my autobox, such as clunking and it kicking down gears on it's own. I'm hoping replacing the switch will sort these problems too.

An ATF change might be in order.....if you havent done one....this can sort out probs with the autobox  :y

Changing the fluid and filter was the first thing I tried. Still does it though  :-/

Take the switch off and clean it....not difficult...
