Hi guys.
I took the car for a 5 minutes trop to go to the recycling center and the car won't go in D or R mode. I'm waiting for mg assistance to help me out. I wasn't charging or anything.
Someone already experienced this ?
 
I had this once.

It helped, turning the car off, and then on, with the foot on the pedal.

But, i guess you probably already did this....Several times.

What happens when you turn the car on...Does the "Car is ready" popup not appear ?

Is there any error messages ?

If there is no error messages, i would suggest the good old "reboot it" (12V battery disconnected for 10 minutes)
 
Oh...By the way...I had this once, when it would not let me do anything before i put the seatbelt on.

Normally it will let me drive off, without the seatbelt, but begin bonging at me, but that time it would not.

If a door is not closed properly, mine shows the car, with a red "aura" around it to indicate that the "shell" of the car is not completely closed.

Could be the boot, mine needs a bit of force, otherwise it sometimes only "half closes".
 
The car finaly work again. I did try do open/close all the doors, be sure that the 'ready' icon as there(nothing about the 12v battery) , switched off the car completely several times (but with me inside). By the way I know now that there is a real alarm on the car. I got out of the car then closed it and wait a few minutes waiting for mg assist to pick my call and then thé car started working again!
 
I had this today no light around gear selector button locked unlocked etc still wouldn’t work had to use other vehicle tried mg assist still on hold 2 hours later did you find out what this was
 
This happen to me last night. Tried powering the car off and restart by pressing the brake pedal to go in Ready. Still can't get into D or R from P mode. Hence, we all got out of the car, closed the doors with the remote, waited 10s, open the cars with the remote, got into the car, and I was able to get into R or D.
