2002 Hundai Sonata V-6. What do the +/- next to the automatic shifter do? My daughter accidentally bumped the shifter into that area while driving at 55...horrible noise and burning smell...did she just mangle her transmission?

SOURCE: Transmission won't shift into drive/check engine light is on.

Can you message me what they decided this was. We had this same problem after church, today, though we have an automatic transmission

Disconnect the battery.remove the front tires.disconnect the lower control arms from the hubs.Remove the axle nuts.Swing away the hub until it clears the end of the drive axle spline.Keep it to the side.Remove the drive axles. remove the starter.remove the torque converter bolts on the flywheel.disconnect the gear linkage and all electrical connectors.disconnect the transmission cooler lines. undo the transmission mounts. use a transmission jack to lower the transmission.Installation is the reverse of the above.Be sure to torque all bolts and nuts to spec,pre load the mounts and replace the cotter pins with new ones.it should take about 5 hours to re and re the transmission.

Hello and welcome to FixYa!
You may just have system failure. As a first course of action, I strongly suggest that you remove the positive battery connector and let it sit for at least 5mins. before reconnecting it. This will reset the system and can get it back to it's normal operation.
If the problem still persists, I believe that you will need to have the torque converter replaced. This can be caused by a faulty or worn out torque converter as well.
Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!
