I have no idea what you're asking.

What problem are you having with the car?

Two problems really:
2003 CRV was in fender bender and had front end drivers side caved in a bit (not enough to engage airbag) immediately after collision idle sped up and I mean ridiculously high to where it took all my strength to hold the vehicle with brakes while a passerby came over and threw it into park for me.

Since then 1)no getting car out of park 2) still have screaming high idle

look into other problems first.. imo the shifter solenoid may not be the
problem..!?? i know that theres a switch(safety/engage) on the break
pedals.. it might be damaged or grounded, also the shifter has the safety
lock button..?? have you tried pressing it?? im not that familiar w/ gen.2
crvs but almos all has the same working components/parts.. try to look
the pedals fisrt for that switch that lets you shift while on park....

as for the high idle.. check for hoses..vacuums..cables.. there might be an 'issue there small that you might be overlooking into..
(unplugged hoses/vacuums.. hang up/twisted cable..)

good luck!

pressed the safety lock button and was able to get shifter into neutral (thanks).

but when I put it back in park it again did not move out of park--only comes out with release on safety lock button.

the screaming idle is so revved I am only able to keep car on for a few seconds tops!

I would suggest checking the throttle cable. The collision may have kinked it, causing the throttle body to stick wide open.
