Hi b's,

I have a 2023 Bronco and it won't go into gear. The motor runs fine at park, when selected for
drive or reverse, a light flashes on the d or r selector buttons, and the Bronco won't respond.
Its like a safety something won't give gear selection. Yes all doors, hatch, closed. I would like to look for
a code, does anybody know where the computer hookup for that is? thanks Bronco is getting restless!

Haven't heard of this issue. Is it not throwing any messages/codes on the infotainment screen? OBDII port is located driver side just under the dash on left hand side of steering wheel.

Hi there, I'd be happy to look into your Bronco concerns on my end. Will you send us a message with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into things on my end.

Have the keys? The bronco won't let you drive it if it doesn't sense the key.

Are you using a "my key" ... At least I think that's what it's called. It's that programmable restricted key that can lock you out of things.

But the fact that you're able to actually move the shifter makes it sound like it's an electronic problem.
