Amberpetho New Member 3 Member For: 6y 9m 27d Posted 19/02/18 08:58 AM Share Posted 19/02/18 08:58 AM Hey guys just wondering if you could help with my fg my air vents were broken the other day and I fixed them via pulling out glove box and satin trim. whilst putting the glove box back in I’ve obviously done damage. After messing around doing that, the interior roof lights aren’t working AT ALL glove box light,, also the car says “transmissions not in park” when you turn the key off. I’m at a lost cause, also am unsure of what fuse to check? After some searching I found sound forum on a similar issue the last comment might have something to do with it https://fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?p=4814363 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a couple of plugs you have to remove to get the glovebox out. Make sure they're all 100% re-connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have just experienced the same issue in my FG XR6 today. But my issue stems from a different situation, long story short. My family and I got soaked to the bone in bad rain a couple of days ago, the interior got pretty wet, I turned the heater on the following morning to max for 30 mins or so with the windows open an inch to dry it out. Today I went to drive it, and it cut straight out and was immobilised, I disconnected battery and got it to reset and start. Then I got a new message on dash "blown indicator globe", and had no gauges? I drove it with heater on max to dry any moisture, then the gauges began to work. But then a new problem arose Now the indicators only flash on the right side, even if left is selected.. But ONLY while the engine is running, it works normally with key on eng off? And the dash is reading that same message that seems to be haunting everyone with electrical issues in an FG?? TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK Does anyone know what the common link is that is shared by us? I'm thinking along the lines of bad earth, but haven't been able to test this theory yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fggas New Member 2 Member For: 4y 7m 11d Posted 05/05/20 11:32 AM Share Posted 05/05/20 11:32 AM Thanks for the welcome. Turns out was missing the 15A courtesy fuse. Not sure how that throws a trans not in park warning but there you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
