Discussion:
wont frive fwd or rev

Hello,

I have a truck with a flashing exclamation mark when I put it in gear, also the neutral is flashing. The exclamation mark appears to flash twice then a pause then flashes again. The seat switch looks like it is working. Unplugged and back again tried jumping it no change all fuses ok and the truck lifts and lower no problem.

I have heard that it is a light bulb out in the dash but they all light up just fine anyone know if maybe the bulb may just need replacing anyways?

Thanks in advance

Did you ever find the problem on this? Mine is acting very similar.

Have you checked the transmission fuse in the fuse panel?
it should be a low rated fuse like a 5 or 7 amp rating.

other than that other possibilities are

- seat switch (if it has one)
- parking brake switch
- directional switch

or wiring to any of those circuits

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
