Very difficult to change out of Park

Very difficult to change out of Park
As the subject reads, it's impossible to change out of park just using the button on the shifter.
I believe I spilled Coke down underneath all that plastic and f*cked it up. There is a little tiny motor (I think) that helps take the car out of park, but it's not engaging. So for now, I am using a screw driver to manipulate it, but it's retarded!
Do I need to replace the electrical motor that helps change out of park or just clean it?
Thx for your help!

i have the same problem...when I park my car in the driveway (inclined) its difficult to shift out of park, and I must pull teh shifter back really hard. Anyhow, a friend had an older accord ('92) and she had the same problem...until one day, it was virtually impossible to shift the damn thing out of park. Their mechanic changed the wire that leads to the shifter and the problem went away.

yeah i had forgotten to mention that i ritually use the e-brake every time i park. it has been difficult to shift after I leave the car sitting for two days. I presume it will get worse over time unless I figure out how to fix it.

Exactly how and when do you set the e-brake.
When I park on an incline, I press the brake pedal, then pull the e-brake, shift into park, and then release the brake pedal.
When I go back out of park, I press the brake pedal, shift to reverse, then release the e-brake, then release the brake pedal --
When I do it all in that sequence, I got no problems.

"Heart Attack"
Hahahaha I won't have a heart attack. I will just let them complain about the incline. Doesn't matter what kind of car you have, it's always going to be difficult to change into gear, on an incline. Think about it, all the weight is putting pressure on the car...
