Hi
I'm more commonly found on the Discovery forum but I have a Range Rover Classic for proper off road fun.

My classic is a 1991 3.9 auto and I have a problem.

My 3 year old son loves to play driving in the Rangie. A couple of weekends ago he was doing his usual, sitting in the driver's seat making brrm noises and pressing every switch he can reach. He has also managed to operate the auto gear selector and was running the lever up and down the selector channel.

After he'd finished I got in the car to move it, but it won't start. Flat battery I thought, but no, not that. Long story short, the car is stuck in gear. No matter where you move the gear change selector, the car stays in gear.

Looking underneath the selector rods seem to be moving fine but the car remains in gear....and on my front lawn.

Any suggestions welcome at this point (the child has already been caged ;) ), I wondered if I removed the inhibitor switch, can I get it staretd that way? If so....anyone know where the inhibitor switch is?

All other suggestions gratefully received!

Thanks
Steve
