Hello,
I wanted to post a bit of information regarding this. Skip Shift has springs in the transmission that want to make the shifter go to center. When the light is on, even though it has resistance, it is still possible to jam it into second. It is recommended to shift to forth for better fuel economy. If you still have questions, I recommend you contact your dealer for a more detailed answer. Hope that helps!
