HELP! Video inside A4 quattro, tiptronic Will not engage any gear after trim swap
Alright guys, I have a 2006 B7 quattro, 2.0t tiptronic. Car was working perfectly fine today.. I bought some B6 S4 seats as well as some silver trim(I had the brown fake wood trim) recently.. Anyhow today I swapped the seats(I did not swap the bladder module from the passenger seat yet. ) was just putting the seats in to see how they look.
Also swapped the silver trim.. Got to the the ash tray and struggled removing it.. SO i thought I would start the car, put it in gear to get more clearance.. Anyhow I started the car and I cannot select any gear.. Foot is on the brake, no gear selection..
Any ideas why? could i have disturbed a plug when removing the center trim/ash tray trim? The airbag light is on(which I expected from the passenger seat not having the pressure (bladder) installed.. Could that have made my car go into pissed off, you can't drive me mode??.. any ideas!? thanks ahead of time.

Alright guys, I looked at the solenoid and it appears to be fine. I unplugged and replugged.. no luck, I made a video to see if anyhow has any further ideas.

Ok, so after some further testing.. I'm 99% sure the solenoid is clicking.. The light on the transmission that signals the brake is pressed also goes off. and the brake lights come on when brake pedal is pressed.
As far as the override button I do not see one anywhere. Do you have a picture? I've tried removing the #31 fuse.. I also checked the engine fuses, no fuse issues..
I've tried to remove the car from park in off position, on position, as well as ACC or in between position.. Still nothing..
The car worked 100% fine before the seat and trim install.. With an automatic car, could the airbag light from no passenger side seat pressure bladder make the car go into limp or non-drivable mode?
I'm going to remove the passenger seat tomorrow and see.
