Gear shift lights dont work - 2007 Nissan Sentra 2.0 SL Sedan

Does the brake lights work? If not check the fuses,and maybe brake light switch at the brake pedal.It can shift if you turn the key on(only enough to un-lock the steering wheel) then shift it to neutral,then start the vehicle,just remember if you shift it back to park it will be stuck again..Dont try driving it if the brake lights do not work,very dangerous for you and other drivers.

check fuses and wiring harness from ignition switch

sounds like the shift cable is broken or out of adjustment

Check ALL the fuses !!! Does the brake lights work? if not,, the shift inter lock may be disabled ,,, if the lights work the interlock solenoid might be the culprit . You should be able to get in gear by turning the ignition switch off then turning to the first selection ,,don't turn it untill the dash lights come on ,,with the key in that position you should be able to shift the lever to put it in gear ,,,,dont move the key untill its in the correct gear

Hi, i have the same kind of Ardeo and this is how the steer matic shift works.
Stop vehicle and shift gear lever to DRIVE position then press on the steermatic shift button and M will high light above the top of the semi auto shift high lighter to show that you are in the steering wheel gear shift manual mode.At this point you can use the down shift buttons on the front part of the steering and the up shift buttons on rhe rear side of the steering.the down shifted or up shifted gear will high light on the dash.if you want to boot back to semi or automatic drive press steermatic button again.ENJOY YOUR DRIVE

dear friend-your blinker light has nothing to do with your gearbox problem,i surgest you have a look at the hazard switch.regarding you gearbox problem i think we must start at the gear lever.make sure that when you press the button on the shift that it does dis-engage,then while having the shift in hand move the car forward and back wards,try to dis-engage,if not you will have to remove the sump and look at the meganism inside,it has a half moon operating the shaft that is connected to the lock meganism.

I have a 93 4-door grandmarquis and everything works but the brakelights.
I was told that the gear shift is possably tied into this because the gear shift is loose.Is that true?
And what do you suspect is the reason the brake lights dont work?

it sounds like a transmission issue if its not shifting into third gear id have it looked at as soon as possible you dont want to mess the whole transmission up

first the flashing light means that it is trying to go into 4wd. as far as i know there is no adjustment. The shift motor may be bad, If the transfer case is shifting it could be the silinod in the front differantal.

check to see if your brake lights are working.there is a safety system that wont allow you to shift from park unless you push the brake pedal........most of these systems utilize the brake light switch for this........if your brake lights dont work it is most likely a blown fuse.
hope this helps....
