How do i fix my shifter linkage in my 2000 dodge intrepid

Hello,

Google this: how to change shifter cable on a 2000 dodge intrepid - under videos.

I hope this helps

If its an automatic, which im sure it is. You can adjust the cable by first that the vehicle doesn't have to be running to do this. Find the transmission after raising hood. Should be easy to see. On top of it you'll see a possible L - shaped lever bolted down with what should be your shift cable. Turn the ignition on but dont start. Undo the shift cable from the linkage and by hand turn the linkage down, shifting through all the gears till in low. Reach inside the car and put shifting lever in low. Hook shift cable back to linkage and from inside put in park. That should work

I had a 2003 intrepid automatic and the solenoid pack went

the shifter linkage could need adjustment, try starting the car with it in N.

It is a cable, and there was a recall for this concern.

Brake switch is out, when you push in brake pedal it releases shift lever. Some cars do it with a switch others use direct linkage

neutral safety switch/ usually located on the transmission right where the shift cable linkage is.

I had the same problem after my car went into a transmission shop for some service. This might be the solution, it was with my car. Check the transmission shift cable. When mine finally failed, it was filled with rust.
You may be able to simply lubricate it somehow with something like WD40, but I'm not sure if it would work. If all else fails, you can have the shift cable replaced, which is what I had to do with my car after driving it for 2 years with that problem. By then I had worn out and warped the shifter and had to replace that too, as well as drive it around for a week without being able to get the transmission into park.
Good luck! If you have to take it to a shop, just tell them that your shift cable is going bad and you want them to make sure.
