Title: Moving Auto Selector from P to N, when Rear Brake Pipes off
Post by: polilara on 27 January 2026, 10:14:15

2001 Omega 2.6 with AR25 and rear brake pipes off. Can I move selector from P to N just by pressing the brake pedal (ignition on), so does the system recognise hydraulic pressure somewhere or is there just a microswitch somewhere? I know there is a yellow clip under the cover to do this but just want to save time.

you only need to press the brake slightly until the solenoid releases .you MAY loose a bit of brake fluid but minimal ((alternately use the yellow lever as you mentioned)
