It's something in the motor. I have the same problem. I don't plan to drive in the rain much, if at all... so it doesn't bother me. I know I'm as useless as a wet paper towel here.  :lol:

I had the same problem on both cudas I have owned.  turned out to be a bad connection between the switch body and ground.  I run a ground wire from the switch panel metal frame to the firewall and park function works.   the factory ground for the switch panel is through one of the mounting screws that holds the panel into the dash,  real easy to get corrupted.  Hope that helps

I agree with the switch panel ground connection.  I had the same problem.  A good ground cured it.

Could be a bad switch (seen it, had it, had to fix it).   :pullinghair: The ground connection inside the switch can go bad. But I agree  :iagree: with the others check the ground first.
