Replace the switch on the manual lever on the side of the transmission. It is known as the PRNDL (park reverse neutral drive low) or MLPS (manual lever position switch) or TPS (transmission position switch) and will cost about $40 to $50. You have an E4OD, Electronic 4 speed, Over-Drive transmission and this switch not only turns on the backup lights but also indicates to the computer which gear you have selected. The switch becomes contaminated with dirt and water and eventually does not turn on the right contacts or shorts to alternate contacts and indicates that you are in a gear other than the one you have selected.

The switch comes with a shear pin and neutral position mark so that you install it in the proper initial position or in other words the neutral gear position. After you have tightened the attaching bolts the first time you shift the manual lever the shear pin snaps and you have normal operation.

It is easy to replace you can do it yourself. The part number is probably FOTP-7F293-AA, 1990 release and colored tan. A newer version on the switch is F5TP-7F293-AA, 1995 release and colored black.
