pnp switch maybe... ratchet the shift from L to park like 20 times fast, see if that does the trick.

Ran that shift lever backnforth like 40x, and lo and ihatevolvos, the arrow stopped blinking. CEL still in effect tho.
PNP switch needs replacing? Another $150 into the hole.
That throws a code just by being there?
Thanks, today was not going well, at least thats off my mind, for now.

Off to a junk yard unless someone has a junker with the probe and wire intact.

nothing beats my old 240. If it was below 0 the speedo would act like it was on crack, I'd be doing 140mph up the onramp

Look under the hood front passenger side. Theres a little box by the ECU container, with a wired jumper and 2 sets of terminals/ holes, and an LED, under the covers.

Since one of the fixes is to ratchet the shifter effectively sort of cleaning the PNP I find myself gate shifting the trans a lot, dropping into 3 or L to hold a gear or use the engine to slow the car down a bit. With this gate shifting I'm constantly moving the shifter and so far (knocks on wood) my PNP has been fine for a long time. So basically gate shifting is keeping the PNP fresh
crazy?

I call him Joey Fat-one, he looks pretty slim in that pic. The sense of humor on these boards is limitless, another reason i like this site. My wife often thinks I'm nuts laughing out loud when I'm on VS.
Ok so who is in the back seat, and when am I getting my pie? I wish I was good at photoshop, I'd never turn off the PC.
