History is the key to any good diagnosis, so here it goes, and as short as possible.
2011 Dodge Larimie 4wd w/ 5.7 Hemi & Auto. Trans
My son used the truck to go fishing. Launched the boat, pulled up, parked and put the truck in Park. When they got back to the truck and turned the key, NOTHING happened. He noticed the Indicator shown to be in Reverse but the Center Console Shifter was actually in the Park position and would not move. When I got there, I found this to be true and used the MANUAL shift release, and was able to get the shifter into neutral. I was able to start the truck with the shifter in NEUTRAL. When I moved the shifter into drive, nothing happened, moved to Reverse and nothing happened, When I put the shifter in Park however, I heard a series of clicks as if a solenoid or gear was not engaging completely. After the series of clicks stopped, the shift indication was on park and I was able to turn the key off and it would then start again. After all of this, the trans still would not engage in any position and would give the series of clicks when put back into park.
I pride myself in performing all work on my own equipment, but need a little help in the Diagnostics.
Suggestions are Greatly Appreciated.
