Thanks my friend, it work. Probably a dirty sensor was causing the trouble. After that I reset the system disconnecting the battery for 5 min and the car went back to normal.

If you are able to do this can you drive the car to a shop?

Hi sir first off Thx for the video I have a 2016 Sorento and it’s locked.
I understand this is temporary fix.
How do I trouble and fix myself

[MerryTech]

Thanks, that did the trick. By coincidence I was getting ready to take my car to shop for tuneup and found the battery dead lolz

Hi! I just got the Kia sorento 2020, my car doesn’t have that cover that you removed, is that okay? Is it necessary? Thanks!

[kumarivisionz]

What if it keeps happening, where once the car stops then starts again it won't shift without that screw driver ? That's what's happening to me and started today! 😮

[prettyboynexu]

Disculpe mi troca kia si se mueve la palanca la prendo y todo bien pero cuando ya boy a parking no agarra si se mueve la palanca y todo pero no agarrar el cambio sparking usted sabrá qué pasa

[stephenjackson]

Oh brilliant Lets not talk about what causes this problem to begin with lol

[paintballalienindy]

How to actually fix this: most of the time it is a short in the body control module- replacing it is pretty expensive unfortunately

[grizzlycarder]

But once you put it back in park it's locked again

[traceyengland]

Any of you don't carry a screw driver?

[hermelindadiaz]

You need to say step by step, that does not work for me
