    Bus stuck in park after removing wheelchair lift

    We have a 2008 E450 shuttle bus that we recently removed the wheelchair lift. Now the bus will not come out of park. I'm assuming there is some sort of safety feature that thinks the wheelchair lift is engaged. Does anyone know how to bypass this feature? Thank you in advance.
