If you can get at the part that's clicking you might see what's wrong there. There is a mechanical action to allow it to shift out of park only with brake applied as you know. Getting at that might not be so easy - take a look. I don't know first hand what linkage or style of release is used and would have to look myself. The more common failure with stuff like that is the brake light switch but you said that works, T way2old Veteran / Moderator Mar 8, 2008, 3:37 PM Post #3 of 3 (4602 views) Re: can't get shifter out of park Sign In Is this a floor shift? If it is, here is a picture for location of the shift interlock solenoid. This will keep it from shifting from park.
