Here’s one for those with obscure knowledge that may be a able to help. This is a picture on my first edition that I had to leave because it would not shift out of park. For several weeks the key fob (both fobs and both with new batteries) give a random no key detected message. If the fob is in the right pocket not a problem but near the door I get random no key detected messages. The rear door has to have the key within 6in to function so this had been an issue. I say that to say this is how the bronco acted after starting normally than acting as if there was no key and not shifting out of park. You can hear the solenoid activate on starting the car and the brake lights work so not that and not a fuse. I was camping a couple days so I left it for a couple hours and came back. Car worked normally. The next morning packed up got in and it would not shift out of park. Both times first thing in the morning and the key were in it all night. Don’t know if that played a part but maybe. For an hour it acted this way. I had to leave it (luckily had a buddy with me) to go to work. Can back to it and it started normally. Very disconcerting to off-road in a vehicle that may or may not shift out of park. Anybody experienced anything like this?
