2008 thru 2012 nissan sentra stuck in park, Shift button does not fully go into knob assembly, Depressing the park override mechanism does not let the shifter move. You can remove broken pieces and it will work again like new.

Thank you very much for you video. It was exactly as you described. One of the tabs on the left hand side was broken. You explanation was clear and took about 10 minutes. I can't believe that such a small part can cause such a problem. Thanks again.

Thank you so much for this fix. I have a Sentra 2011 with the same issue. Wish I had seen your video earlier as paid $165 for Nissan diagnostic before fixing myself with help of your video - mine had 3 pieces :-( Shame on Nissan! Replacement all-in would of been $488!! You are a legend for sharing, thanks again.

If your silver shift button does not fully depress into the knob, you most likely have a broken piece of plastic stuck between the knob and the button assembly. Remove the knob assembly and try shifting without it by depressing on the shift rod mechanism. This broken piece can also keep you from getting into park because the shift rod isn't getting depressed fully.

So... I had an issue where my 2012 Nissan Sentra would NOT shift into park. I turned the engine off, but I couldn't shut the ignition off all the way and a park icon lit up my dash... but I couldn't turn it on anymore either, so I decided to google and troubleshoot. After a few hours, I came across this video and saw this very comment I'm replying to. I took off my stick, and sure enough I had a tiny piece of black plastic that had broken off the button assembly or something, and it was blocking the button from fully depressing ever so slightly (like, by 1cm). After I took that out and put it back together, car shifts fine. Thank you so much for this video/comment. You saved me a tow and a repair bill of whoknows how much. Thank you thank you thank you.

@Krizrox16 жыл бұрын
Yep exactly as described all the way down to the little broken piece of plastic inside. I had ordered the replacement assembly from Nissan parts for around $140 (and will install it when it arrives in a few days) but this gets me out of the woods for the time being. Actually, in my case, the shift lever was still operational, but the plastic silver button on the side wasn't going in all the way which made the shifting process (from park) a little glitchy and weird. I wasn't about to ignore the problem. The Nissan part number for the this whole shebang is 34910-ZT50B which is basically everything that slides off the internal shifter rod. It wasn't clear to me that you could order any of the individual internal parts so I just bought the whole enchilada. I'll keep it in storage until such time I have another problem. Anyway thanks Rick for this video. I'm sure it saved me hundreds in repair charges. BTW: I have a 2012 Sentra which is a Special Edition model. This thing crapped out at about 50K miles. The only other cabin repair I've had to make so far is the drivers side power window switch assembly (that group of little plastic switches on the door arm rest).
