Is this to mean it still ends up driving OK just the indicator of which selection to drive is wrong?

If so, probably not so much a transmission problem, rather where it turns at the transmission is worn, corroded or something heat bothers if still reading anything?

Site has a specialist hope he's by soon if this is chronic to this.
Noted that it's about 25 years old, maybe a little more wear takes a toll on lots of things, this included. If you can watch it with a helper shifting it see if anything is obvious,

Just hang on - I said it's hope for a "pattern" issue known to do this? T

Hello,
On the outside of the Transmission there is a MLPS or Manual Lever Position Sensor or Neutral switch, there may be something wrong with that switch, the contacts inside the switch get corroded . Gary
