How do you get the brakes to depress so that the gear shift will release, they are both locked.
Since you can not press the brake pedal down it sounds like you master cylinder is frozen check that and that should take care of that snd the shifter releasing
Your question is too vague. Brakes don't "lock".
Turn ignition on, but do NOT start engine. Step on brake pedal and you should hear a Click near the gear shift lever. This is the relay that unlocks the gear shift. If you don't hear a click each time you tap the brake pedal, you have an electrical problem - bad relay, break in wiring etc. You will likely need to have it towed to dealer for diagnosis/repair.

Should be a switch further up the brake pedal that contacts when the brake pedal is pressed. Check this switch to see if defective or broke.

hello, sounds like you need to change the switch, sounds like the switch is going bad, because it is taking time to let you put your car in gear, soon as you put foot on brake the switch should activate, almost immediatley, then put the car in gear, i had a nissian , that did this, went to junkyard, bought used one for 20.00. new one was about 50.00. still working today.
SOURCE: I depressed the parking brake pedal and now it won't release.
you need to look under the truck and see witch parking brake cable is frozen
