Trans stuck in park - Nissan Pathfinder 2000

You can override the shift lock, look in the owner's manual. You can look here for the service manual

They have the '00 Xterra which is probably the same.

You should be able to disconnect the black box. They usually plug in between the wiring harness and the tail lights. Unplug the black box from both harness and taillights, then plug harness directly into taillights. You'll need to unplug it on both sides.

Was a trailer hooked up when you started having problems?

Which wire is fried?

The schematic is in the factory service manual.

If there's a burnt wire, you have a worse problem - the fuse should have blown long before the wire burned.

I was at a nissan dealer and something similar happened, but this was a

2006 Quest, it was on exhibition and they needed to move it, but they had removed the batery, while they were finding one available a mechanic was trying to unlock the shifter, and told me that at the top of the slot were the shifter runs at the "P" position there is a smaller slot that can be pressed with a screwdriver and unlocks it, I don't know if this is the same kind of transmission, look for the smaller slot, it may work.

Good luck
