how do i shift an automatic out of park to neutral when battery is dead? where is the shift override release located?
Thia is a 1997 but should be same Look for a tiny, removable panel on your shift selector. Pry this panel up with a flathead screwdriver. Insert the screwdriver into the hole to engage the manual shift lock override. Insert your key into the ignition; turn it to the "On" or "Acc" position. Depress the brake pedal completely. Move the shift selector to neutral.

Follow-up question: what do you do if the car has push start button only? We have a completely dead battery and a push start button only car. We need to move it to neutral to push it out of the garage.
