Fixed my 2013 altima. Dealership was asking $800 to fix the issue. Nissan should have recalled this part as almost everybody is having same problem. Would not buy Nissan again. Thanks for the video

Awesome walkthrough. Fix my wife's Altima in under an hour. Thanks for posting. You have helped a lot of people.

I was quoted $1220 from a dealer to fix this situation... $800 for the part alone. Ended up fixing it myself while watching your video. Easier than I thought. Great demonstration. Can't thank you enough!!

$800 for the part and repair, i went to ebay part $130 labor : free

Yen Estelles thank you so much for this video. I was stranded last night in a parking lot after a concert. Not fun. Thanks to KZread, I found out how to release my shifter from park, and thanks to you, I was able to repair it today and with no extra parts lying around. It was a little more difficult to remove the panels than your video, but I got to it. There were parts all over my backyard, at some point I thought oh my I hope this fixes the problem. It did. While I was at it, I fixed the light that was burned in my console under the P R N D little sign, it was driving me nuts. I called the dealer for the part number of the light bulb replacement, the guy told me they don't repair that part, they sell a new console, I just hung up. There are plenty of video on KZread that shows how to replace the part, I just didn't know the part number. I took the bulb at the car parts store, with my console parts on the passenger seat and the white plastic knob gear thingy sticking out and they found me a matching light bulb $5 for 2. Yeah, all fixed!!!! I owe you a beer or a nice bottle of rum.

Thank you so much. Just finished fixing my Nissan and your guide was literally perfect. Saved me $600+.

THIS VIDEO SAVED ME LOTS OF $$$. I have a 2013 Altima 2.5 SV. Thank you so much. My husband and I just followed this video step-by-step!! I was quoted $800+ by my local Nissan dealer! It only took us about 40 mins(because we stopped the video for each step) total time. Thank you for posting.

Man this video was perfect and exactly what I needed to get in my car with my father-in-law to fix my car. Thank you so much and keep up the good work

Yen! I did it in under an hour! I never thought I could fix anything in a car! You really saved me a whole lot of grief! I had to take some parts off again cause I forgot to connect a cable but wow.. thank you so much!

Mr. Yen Estelles thank you so much for taking the time to make this video you are truly lifesaver. My 2013 Nissan Altima with about 94,000 decided to do this to me right out of the blue. The dealer wanted to charge me $600 plus tax and that was just for the part not including the labor. I’m pretty mechanically inclined so I watched your video very carefully and sure enough that was the exact issue that was taking place with that little white switch under rather the gear shifter. Once again Thank You for helping others. I’m looking forward to watching more of your very helpful videos. Kudos !!! Way to go !!!

Thank you so much man. You saved me a lot of money . My wife's car started doing this yesterday and I watched this video. Today my wife thanks you and she is very happy to have her car back. YOU ARE THE MAN!!😁😁😁 Thank you again.

Thank you. So far so good. Been dealing with this issue for over a year. All it took was a bit of grease on the solenoid actuator arm.

You’re a lifesaver. The car gods are smiling down at you. I actually bought the part that you pointed out and replaced it following your steps. Took me about an hour and a half since I was being really careful not to break any panels. $600-$700 estimate at the dealership for this? Screw that. Thanks a lot for your help. P.S. Your zipper was down during this recording.

Thanks for posting this video. My local Nissan dealer quote me $754 to replace the shifter instead of fixing. Fixed my Nissan altima in almost 1 hour by myself. You are awesome🙏🙏

Wow you’re my hero. I’ve had this issue with my 2013 Altima for 4 years now. The dealership wanted to charge me $700 to “replace the whole part because that little piece isn’t sold by itself”. I will have a friend try this. Thank you! There were no helpful videos when the problem started. You rock! I will follow up with my results 😊

Thankyou so much!! Saved me so much money! Me and my bf fixed it within an hour and 30min 🙏🏽

Thank you for such an amazing tutorial. Followed along and fixed my 2013 Altima lockout issue perfectly. Only took me like 2 hrs to fix it for FREE.

Saved the day! I checked all the other switches and found they were good yet, no fix. Found your instruction and voila ! nice work..

Bro you just saved me 600 bucks!! Works as advertised. Thank you!!!! 🙏🏻

Just did the fix on our 2013 Altima, worked great! Never would have thought of this. Dealer asking $1200 for the fix. Thank you so much for the video!

Amazing Video. Quick, Simple, and Easy to follow. Thank you for doing a great tutorial on how to fix this issue. You did it in 10 minutes and I did it in an hour but who's counting.

Thanks for posting video. My altima was doing the same thing. Did the job in about hour and a half. Shifting fine now.

I cannot begin to tell you how appreciative I am that you made this video. I am fairly handy but there is no way I could have done this job without this video. I have a 2013 Nissan Altima with the same issue. I followed the video step by step, pausing and rewinding when I needed to. Spoiler alert, it worked GREAT and the vehicle is working again. The only caveat is that it is a little more difficult to put it all back together than it first appears, but just take your time and work in reverse and it can be done. Again, many thanks for making this video, I've given it a like and a subscribe.

Just saved me $850, took less than an hour from start to finish, didn't work at first, turns out I didn't bend the prong up enough, if anybody else has this problem. Super simple and video was perfect walk through. No issues at all.

Wow Thank you Very much for DIY I’ve had this problem for a year and is now fix thanks to your video. I Appreciate your time 🙏

Many many thanks! Repair worked perfectly! Keep up the excellent work and thank you for sharing! Only took about 40 min to fix!

Like most others on here have said, thank you SO MUCH, man. Quoted $750 by dealership to replace the entire shifter because the "solenoid is not a serviceable part." You've made my day, car is now back to working properly. Thank you thank you! 👏

Yen, thanks for this video! It was just perfect. I appreciated the demo on how to test the results before re-assembly. You just saved me $800 or more at the dealer....and that was money I didn't have to give.

Thanks man, your video is easy to follow and very in depth. You explain things very well. You saved me a ton of money and headache, seriously.

Your video was a big help. I knocked this out during my lunch break at the office. Start to finish took me only 25 minutes!

I fixed my 2015 altima using your video. Took me 2 hours on the dot. Dealer wanted 650 plus labor, because they said they *had* to replace the entire shift assembly. My regular mechanic couldn't figure out what to quote me, so I figured what heck and followed your video. Bent the metal piece a bit and it works like a champ now. Thanks so much for posting!

Your video helped me fix my wife’s Altima. Your video was excellent. Many many many thanks!!! You rock!!!!

Thank you so much!!! I did exactly what you did and now my car works perfectly. You will be my go to guy from no on.❤️❤️

Fantastically HELPFUL video. Saved me $700-800 at the dealership for about hour and half of work. You do have to shift to drive to get the center console out and in. I tried leaving it park thinking I could get it done but it was a hassle so I did shift to drive. I was scared at first to put it back together but it all worked out just fine. Thanks again!!!!

This video helped a lot with me fixing my altima 2013. Took less than 2 hours to get it working again. Thanks alot and keep making great videos!

I have been using a screwdriver to shift my car out of park for the past 1 1/2 years. I finally took it to the Nissan dealership today and was given a $728 estimate for repair. I know literally nothing about cars, but using your video, I was able to fix it myself in under 2 hours and all it cost me was a few broken fingernails lol. Thank you sooooo much!

I just experienced this "problem" today. I knew it wasn't the transmission as I can use the shift lock key to get it out of park. Thank you for posting this and you just saved me some money (dealer wanted $600 just for the part with only a year warranty). I will do this fix tomorrow and save myself some money. Again, thank you for this and you have a new subscriber.

Just fixed my 2013 God bless ya big homie 🙏🏾

you saved me $750 and it was super fun to spend an hour fixing my car! Thank you!!

Thanks for the video, my Altima started doing this today. Weekend project coming up.

Thank you for the in depth video, it took a while because some parts were difficult to remove but it was smooth putting all back together. Thanks for.saving me money 👌

Thank you so much I knew something was wrong either way the shifter on my moms 2017 altima when she told me she couldn't get it out of park but thankfully i found your video before taking it to any autoshop. I really appreciate you and people like you that solve the problem and share it with us all.

Awesome video!! I fixed my mom's 2013 Nissan Altima about 3 months ago and no problem, thank you.

Thank you so much for making this. I followed step by step and got it fixed. A few months later the metal switch got tired again so i ordered a replacement switch. I recommend anyone that watches this to just get a new switch so you dont have to rip it out twice.

Awesome demonstration. Most of these other dyi videos leave the simple but IMPORTANT stuff out which sometime makes it impossible to follow. Thank You.

Very helpful and easy to follow. On a side note, because the switch was not functioning properly, my key fob would not lock and unlock my car by pressing it's buttons. I had to press the button on the car each time. You saved me money on a new switch and a $400 key fob. Thank you

Hey man just want to say thanks for making this video ... I went to firestone they wanted to charge me $80 just to look at it and the dealer quoted me about $1000 with labor included,.. you made magic work here thanks again

Just Awesome ! i did step by step from this video with just the tool mentioned, hardly $15 from walmart and could get it fixed. Thanks again and appreciate this video for helping others to save $$$.

Dude you save me 1000 dollars today. Thanks and I appreciate you. Much love from the Beantown✊🏾💯

Thank you so much!! It took my dad and I about an hour since I have a different model. But this was so helpful and awesome! Thank you so much. You saved me hundreds of dollars

Hey bro so I’m always hesitant when I see repair videos like this. I’m good with cars too but with this I had no idea where to start. but I figured trying this would be better than dropping 600 bucks at the dealership. Anyhow I have a 2013 pathfinder. Getting the center console out was a little different but aside from that I performed the repair like you showed and my god it worked. Just wanted to say thanks. Saved me a trip to the dealer and a bunch of money.

Sir, THANK YOU for saving me a bunch of money!! I should point out here that this was the exact issue with my 2013 Nissan Versa. The only difference was the color of the wires running to the switch. Again, THANK YOU!!

So Professional. thanks a lot for this super helpful video I watched several videos but no one came close to your Professionalism and experience you made it looked so simple And get to the bottom of the problem. 👍

Awesome video! Fixed my 2013 Nissan Altima with no problems. Thanks for the excellent instruction.

Wow, a very detailed walkthrough, and a HUGE money saver!!!! Unfortunately for me, it looks like a lot has to be disassembled, maybe too much especially since I know ZERO about cars. However I very much appreciate your video, it’s definitely going to help out a lot of people.

Dude you are a genius!!! Thank you so much for posting this!

You really are great and thanks for sharing your idea, it took me 30 minutes to complete the work and it turned out very well, the truth is that the Nissan dealer will not be happy with what you are doing and showing the world how bad they are in blessing you something that is not worth it are a scam. Thank you for sharing, you have saved me 1000 dollars

Thanks!!! Took about 90 minutes on my wife's '13 Altima. Would've been quicker but I was a little slow putting everything back together! Thanks for saving me $$$.

Thanks so much for the video wouldn't of been able to disassemble that console without it. With that said, I went to the dealer attempting to buy that switch and found that shifter assembly is NOT SERVICEABLE. You need to buy the entire assembly for $530 and change. The parts guy sold me a brake pedal switch and recommended I speak with a service advisor. They were no help and acted like they have never seen this problem before. I am so disgusted with Nissan this has been one of many other issues with that car. I bent the tab forward on the shifter switch and reinstalled everything and it works now. Thanks again you saved me a lot of time and broken plastic parts.

brother thanks for the video you just saved me $ 960 I was charged at the nissan dealership in my pathfinder 2013 blessings 🙏

Thanks bro this was the best how to video for Altima just fixed mine in less than hour

Glad I found this video, easy to follow and saved me 600 dollers.

Best instructional and informative video for this problem. Thanks!

Just fixed mine cause of ya, thank you for helping us DIY's and beating corporate greed

Awesome Fix. Saved me $$$ and a great walkthrough. Thank you.

Great video. It enabled me to remove my front console very simple. Thank You!!!!!

Thanks to your instructions for getting the console out of the way, the switch was fairly accessible from the driver side. I was able to pop the switch out and make the repair without removing the shift assembly or cable.

Works perfect!!! Saved me a lot of time and money. Truly greatful. Thank you!!

You're great brother!! I'm going to give this a shot and keep you posted. Awesome work!!!

You were right, thanks so much for posting. You must have saved me from a $1,500.00 dealer bill for a re-bent piece of metal. Thank you so much...you the best!!!!

Excellent video, thank you so much for posting it! Amazon and Walmart both show a replacement switch kit with harness and OEM plugs to fit for 2013 through 2017 Nissan Altima. $50 ! if the original switch has not failed, bending the tab on the switch up as shown in the video should definitely fix the problem but not sure for how long...I have used that repair technique for over 40 years on various types of machinery and devices. It is definitely the most cost-effective solution LOL. This project is enough labor time that I think I will go for the new switches and improved positioning brackets that might prevent the problem from ever happening again.

Thank you so much for this video. Easy to follow along and you saved me $700.

Thank you so much!!! I was not excited to try to fix this but you made it so EASY!!! I really appreciate it! You are da MAN!!!!!

Amazing tip! Also.. if you are doing this on a 2015 Pathfinder or similar.. you only have to remove the center console with the cupholders etc, not the rear vent covers or any side panels. The small metal tab that you bend is visible in the gap on the drivers side, with 2 small hook tools or similar you can bend it while its still in place!

Dude, you got straight to the point and got it done, you're the man bro, thanks 😊 I will work on my altima this weekend and save my self $$😎😯
