My 2006 Ford freestyle starts alright, but it does not move when I select a gear. The engine idles smoothly.

Question edited for clarity and add maker.
Question moved to model category.

There are three videos but 2 at too short to be any good and the other is a for a Ford 500. Did you come across this text based article.

The usual cause is the dog (gear) on the end does not move out fast enough due to dust/dirt build up.
A clean and lubricate with dry silicon lube will sort that issue out.
Disconnect the battery, disconnect the power cable on the rear of the starter motor.
Unbolt and remove the staer motor, clean lubricate NOT WITH OIL! that will make it attract more dust and reassemble.

No solution. Just got the EXACT same issue last weekend. myfordfreestyle notes said to remove air intake and clean throttle body with basic tb cleaner. seemed to help, but getting some more engine reving during routine shift into park situations.

Any ideas out there? =H

sounds lik a bad switch to me

Its a common fault with the fords.The air throtle idle valve needs to be replaced.Or you may call it a tapper valve.

hi idle choke or not warmed up enough
