How to Unlock the Automatic Gearbox on a Toyota Aygo?

Model: Toyota Aygo Ab40, MK 2 - Years 2014-2023
Part: Transmission

When the gear lever is stuck in the park position, you can unlock it using the dedicated button located between the gear lever and the handbrake. The button is protected by a rubber cap and allows you to unlock the gearbox temporarily, enabling you to move the car, but a mechanic's intervention is still required to resolve the issue permanently. Therefore, take a flat screwdriver to remove the rubber cap protecting the button and press the button using the screwdriver. Move the gear lever from the park position to neutral, then release the button and replace the cap.
