You can go from drive to reverse and back and not have a problem until you try Park? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. djb2007gt New User Jan 13, 2011, 7:36 AM Post #3 of 4 (2817 views) Re: 2001 escape shuts off when shifted into park Sign In That is correct there is no other problems with any other gears. And also I believe that it only happens after taking foot off brake pedal. U come to a stop, shift into park, take foot off brake and turns off approximately ten seconds later. It is my girlfriends vehicle but I have driven it many times and everything else if fine. It does not do this all the time but it is doing it more often as time goes bye. I told her to try to continue holding the brake pedal down for awhile after putting it in park and she said it did not shut off when she did that. Could this be a clue or just a coincidence because this issue is intermittent?

I can only think of one common denominator to these symptoms and that would be the transmission range sensor, formally call neutral safety switch. I have never seen one do this so be sure about the symptoms you describe. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
