Ford Edge Automatic Transmission Stuck in Park

My 2017 Ford Edge diesel with 47981 km seems stuck in 'Park,' preventing the engine from starting. Check engine light is on, and the gearbox shifts roughly. Diagnostics suggest a defective control unit. Has anyone else experienced this?

I had a similar issue with my Edge. Does it feel like the park brake is permanently engaged, even when it isn't? Have you checked the transmission sensor?

Yes, it feels like the park brake is always on. What should I look for regarding the transmission sensor? Any specific tests before I go to a workshop?

I'd wager it's the control unit as your diagnostics suggest. My issue turned out to be a faulty unit causing the same symptoms. Best to get it properly diagnosed and replaced at a reputable workshop to avoid further complications.

Your insights have been invaluable. The defective control unit diagnosis is indeed accurate. I authorized the replacement, costing about 1000€. Thank you for confirming my suspicions and guiding me towards resolution.
