Not Starting in Park, but does in Neutral

Hey All,

Had a strange one today. Could not find something similar really on the site though.

3 times today, My Auto 2006, D3 HSE did not want to start in Park. Just made a clicking sound like a dead battery, but just one click. I tried a few times and getting out, locking, then unlocking again etc...

Then thought I would try in Neutral, it took first time. Mad

It did this 3 times during the morning... then, later in the day, it was normal again with it starting in Park... weird.

I must admit, I took her for a swim yesterday, but under the intake, nothing crazy and up and down a few obstacles at a near by trail. Met another D3 Forum Member Smile

Maybe just something got a bit wet?
Or should I start looking elsewhere...?

Thanks in Advance...
