P1000 Wont shift into gear...

[Plumber32]

Went out this morning to pull the pioneer out of the trailer and I couldn't get it out of park. Granted its 20 deg here so something must be frozen. A little head scratching and I pulled the cover to the cables (behind driver) sure enough. Solid ice! Took a hair dryer and thawed it out. Paper towels sucked up the water. And sprayed the heck out of it with silicone spray. And now it works great again and the dash indicator works instantly when I shift from turf-2wd-4wd! Hopes this will help someone.

There's a gasket. I figure it came in the vent when @joeymt33 forced me to go through a mud hole!
