You also need to find out why the spanner light is on. Try the pedal trick and report back the codes.

I had something similar and had to change the whole selector, cleaning did not help as one (or some) of those leading metal sheets inside were totally cut.

Hi everyone ive been out to the car and cycled the gear selector back and through the range 6 or 7 times slowly and between D and N the yellow selector lights flicker for a second or so.I also hooked up a Autel canbus code  reader and read the codes it was showing zero.But i noticed the orange spanner light was not on the dash anymore but i guess i need to take it for a drive and see.

I'd be surprised if your code reader will read gearbox codes  :-\

Depends which Autel he has. Our Snap-off kit won’t communicate at all with my Omega 🤣 Both my Autels will. I have one that just does engine and the other does engine, transmission, abs and srs 😃👍

Just taken it out for a quick drive autobox was working as it should no orange light on the dash it must be that gear selector switch on gearbox.It was smooth in D and kickdown worked fine.Still no heat and temp gauge flat zero.

Looking at that it’s just a code reader for engine. No live data function either. Don’t think you’ll get GB codes from that, only engine  :y

Have read in another thread of someone having a similar problem and having TC light and Spanner orange car light come up due to that switch.Also if you gently push left or right the fully lit yellow gear indication lights all go out if its in drive.What grease should you use to put back in it when its clean.

I may be wrong but I think you can put a 'Wanted' ad in the Test Area (but not a for sale ad) and if the Admins see fit they will move it to the Parts Wanted and For Sale area. (Due to post count rules you can't sell yet, but I'm sure you can ask for something). Specify 'Wanted' at the start of the ad.  :y
Just thought it may get a bigger audience that way.  :y  You can remove the switch and then clean it in the dry, or replace it, but unfortunately you'll still get wet whichever way you choose.  :y
