It's been a while since I messed with an AOD.........
It's an 83 Cat with a 5.0 and the AOD. Column Shift, and about 120k on the AOD.
The car doesn't seem to go into the P position completely. Meaning, that it does slightly go into park, but if on an incline, it will pop out of P and roll. This happens weather the car is running or not.
Also, when driving at highway speed, before the trans will kick into OD, I have to lift my foot off the pedal, then it kicks it into OD and all is well.
Other than this, the AOD behaves quite well and has no issues.
It's done this for a little while now and I'm finally trying to figure it out. Does this sound like just a TV Cable Adjustment?
Fluid/Filter were changed about 800 miles ago, pretty routine service. Nothing smelled/appeared burnt. Everything looked in good shape from that point of veiw. The AOD behaved this way before the fluid/filter change too.
PNRD21 indicators (instrument panel) do not line up. (can't imagine this would be relative to the AOD issue however)
Any thoughts folks?
That's a dead give away... Adj the manual(selector) linkage, will fix your inability to fully engage park as well...
Likely the O/D problem is the TV cable/linkage adj...
Thanks for the suggestions!
I'll give it a whirl tomorrow and see what happens!

I've had the same problems since I started driving my car only a few times a year. Things tend to get a little out of whack if they start to rust and don't move freely. I just had free up mine again 2 days ago.
You just need a little adjusting to get the selector to match up
just to add, if and when you do line up the selector linkage and your indicators still dont match up the plastic ring that holds the indicator to the steering colum may have broke.

PNRD21 is this an AOD selector? Shouldn't it be PNRDD1?
