You need to check the sensor on the brake pedal. Those GM switches are notorious for going out. It also affects the shifter positions switch.

Dan, check your tranny linkeage, the plastic bushing is probably broken. Your truck probably IS in gear. $6 fix if this is it.

SOURCE: 2005 CHEVY +TRAIL BLAZER ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ON

When the ABS light is on when driving there is a problem in the anti lock brake system and you will need to have it tested to find out what the problem is. As long as the light is on the ABS has been shut off by the computer until it is repaired. There could be problems with one of the wheel speed sensors, wiring or the ABS pump. On some vehicles the red brake light will come on too.

SOURCE: where is the pcv valve on the 2005 chevy trail blazer

Dear hispeed3,

If you haven't bought the part yet and are planning on replacing it ...i'd go to the auto parts store and ask them for the part location. They are usually glad to do this. I know Advanced Auto Parts does this for me.

Are you having a problem with your 2005 Chevy Trail Blazer?
If so...I'm here for you!

Ignition Lock Cylinder Control Actuator
If the vehicle is equipped with a floor mounted console gear shifter, it has a ignition lock cylinder control actuator system in the steering column as an added safety feature. The ignition lock cylinder control actuators purpose is to prevent the steering wheel from being locked when the transmission is in gear and the vehicle may still be moving. The column ignition lock system consists of a ignition lock cylinder control acutator, and a park position switch that is located in the A/T shift lock control switch. The ignition lock cylinder control acutator contains a pin that is spring loaded out to mechanically prevent the ignition key cylinder from being turned to the lock position when vehicle transmission is not in the Park position. If vehicle power is lost, and/or the transmission is not in the Park position the operator will not be able to turn the ignition key to the lock position and will not be able to remove the ignition key from the column.

Trail blazer gear shift button

Could be the brake switch or the shift lock solenoid. You may be able to turn the key lock to the unlock position, move the shifter out of park, then start the engine in neutral.
The shifter and the shift lock solenoid would need to be inspected.

2006 Trail Blazer . . Key will not turn ignition. Yes the key is in right and in all the way. Tried pressing the brake and jerking steering wheel right and left. Still doesn't turn . . .

Have the shifter linkage checked. Sometimes the linkage gets damaged or loose and doesn't go all the way into park. This can keep the keep the key from turning.

Check the shift interlock, it is designed to keep the vehical in park until the brake is depressed. Try turning the steering wheel (both ways if necessary) as you turn key to remove it
