'06 TL will not start in park sometimes

Over the past few weeks, my car has had some problems starting in Park. I can use my key to move the shifter to Neutral and then the car will start fine.

You've got a bad position switch...not sure where it is on the TL, I had that issue years ago in a Civic.

Yeah I think it's the transmission range switch or wiring if it clears when you move to neutral. Does the PRNDL display show P when it happens? If not could maybe be linkage not getting AT fully into P. The range switch is definitely what signals P and N to the starter cut relay but it is hard to say if the switch is really the culprit. PM me if you need scans of the service manual pages related (I have 05 SM, not 06 though)
