How do I get may gear shafter out of park. It will not movie. work fine before.

Modern vehicles have what's called a shift interlock system. This safety mechanism prevents the gear shift lever from moving out of the Park position and into a moving gear position unless the brake pedal is pressed. The components that make this happen are the brake switch near the brake pedal and the shift interlock solenoid in the shifter assembly. The brake switch is also used to illuminate the vehicle's rear brake lights upon vehicle braking, so it gets used a lot. This frequent usage makes it a prime suspect over the interlock solenoid for being the culprit. I'd recommend having someone check to see if you have brake lights the next time the issue presents, or if you'd rather guess at a repair, consider brake light switch replacement.

It sounds like the parking brake cable had jammed and possibly broke. I would lift the rear of the vehicle in the air and try rotating a tire. If it does not move at all the brakes are locked and need to replace emergency brake cable.

check battery volts should be 12.5 volts,if yes check see if you have rear brake lights.if no replace brake light fuse.if brake light fuse okay a faulty brake light switch or shift lock solenoid not working,when you apply brake the electrical circuit goes to shift lock solnoid so you can get transmission out of park.shift solenoid located centerconsole located near gear position indicator.

Helo, This sounds like the Safety Interlock controls are broke or out of adjustment. If this is the Automatic trans, you have to step on the brake before you can shift out of Park.

There is a switch at the top of the brake lever and it sends a signal to release the car from Park. This switch can be moved or broken by feet hitting it. You can look at the rear brake lights to see if they work and if they do not, then the switch is either knocked out of its holder or broken.

If you move the switch (under the dash) and get your brake lights to work, the problem should go away. If the switch is broken, replace it and align it so that the brake lights work properly.

u need to replace the turn signal switch also known as the multifunction switch in the steering column. the brake lights go thru there.

Look under the dash at the switch by your brake pedal. This switch must work for the gearshift to come out of Park. It is also the reason your brake lights do not work.

There is an electric lockout on the gearshift and the power comes from the brake light switch. This is how the van knows you have your foot on the brake.
The switch may be broke or simply loose and not making contact.

detemp ball/button could be broke check the brake linkage/switch to the trans if not any of those block the tires start it and have someone get in and hold the brake then get under it and see if you can move the linkage.

Sounds like the shift lock is not working. Maybe something was put together wrong with the ignition switch.

no disrespect but....
Check the book and make sure you are using the proper bulbs on all sides. (3957 looks just like 3956 but wont work right)

If the brake light switch doesn't work then the solenoid that allows you to move the gear selector out of park is locked out, it is a safety feature required by law, jump the brake light switch with a paper clip ( verify the brake lights are on) and see if you can get it out of park, I am sure it will now come out, then either replace the brake light switch or the wiring to it, many times the wires to the connector of the brake light switch brake inside the plastic insulation, so the outside looks good but the connection is not there or comes and goes, I suspect this is the problem with your car. The solenoid I mentioned is on top of the steering column.
