Will not shift from park to drive, I believe it

Park neutral safety switch could be bad , also the shift interlock safety system .
Shift Interlock System A brake/shifter interlock system consists of the following:

• ignition switch (11572)
• brake pedal stoplight switch (13480)
• brake shift interlock module
• brake shift interlock solenoid assembly (attached to key interlock assembly)
• necessary wiring

On floor-shift vehicles, the ignition/shifter interlock cable (3F719):

• locks the floor shift transaxle range selector lever in the PARK position when the ignition switch is in the LOCK position.
• requires the floor shift transaxle range selector lever to be in the PARK position to turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.

Condition Possible Source Action

• Shift Interlock System Does Not Release or Lock Properly

• Circuitry open/shorted.
• Blown fuse.
• Damaged stoplight switch.
• Damaged shift lock actuator.

• GO to Pinpoint Test A .

PINPOINT TEST A: SHIFT INTERLOCK SYSTEM DOES NOT RELEASE OR LOCK PROPERLY A1 CHECK ELECTRON IGN FUSE

• Check Fuse 5 (5A) located in fuse junction panel.

Is fuse OK?
Yes No GO to A3 . GO to A2 . A2 CHECK FOR SHORT TO GROUND

• Turn ignition switch OFF.
• Remove Fuse 5 (5A).
• Disconnect shift-lock actuator connector C203 located to the right of steering column.
• Measure resistance of the Circuit 1003 (GY/Y) between the correct terminal of Fuse 5 (5A) and ground.

Is resistance greater than 10,000 ohms?
Yes No REPLACE Fuse 5 (5A). GO to A3 . SERVICE Circuit 1003 (GY/Y) wire between fuse junction panel and shift-lock actuator. A3 CHECK POWER SUPPLY FROM FUSE 5 (5A)

• Reinstall Fuse 5 (5A).
• Turn ignition switch to RUN.
• Measure voltage on Circuit 1003 (GY/Y) wire and ground.

Is voltage greater than 10 volts?
Yes No GO to A4 . SERVICE Circuit 1003 (GY/Y) wire between interior fuse panel and shift-lock actuator. A4 CHECK POWER SUPPLY FROM FUSE 28 (15A)

• Turn ignition switch OFF.
• Disconnect connector C2016.
• Turn ignition switch ON.
• Measure voltage on Circuit 10 (LG/R) and ground.

Is voltage B+?
Yes No GO to A5 . SERVICE Circuit 10 (LG/R) for open. RESTORE vehicle and RETEST system. A5 CHECK WIRE BETWEEN STOPLIGHT SWITCH AND SHIFT-LOCK ACTUATOR

• Turn ignition switch OFF.
• Disconnect shift-lock actuator connector C203.
• Apply brake pedal.
• Measure voltage on Circuit 810 (R/LG) wire and ground.

Is voltage greater than 10 volts with brake pedal applied and less than 1 volt with brake pedal released?
Yes No GO to A6 . SERVICE Circuit 810 (R/LG) wire between stoplight switch and shift-lock actuator. A6 CHECK SHIFT-LOCK ACTUATOR GROUND

• Measure resistance of Circuit 57 (BK) and ground.

Is resistance less than 5 ohms?
Yes No REPLACE shift-lock actuator. SERVICE BK wire.

Disconnect battery for an hour ,it may have gone into safe mode make sure all the fuses are in right places and none blown.

Can you disconnect the power at the battery? When you reconnect it follow the guide lines of the owner's manual in 'change battery' section.

I have seen this to be a false code before....First make sure trans fluid is at correct level and no leaks..,make sure it shifts correctly while driving...Set park brake,wear safety glasses..Disconnect Negative battery cable for 10 seconds to clear code and reset computer...Reconnect and then test drive...If light stays off it was a false code...It could be a simple problem but save time and money and have it scanned at dealer...

Make sure you have brake lights, they system must see the brakes applied before the park lock will release. make sure the fuse you installed is good and has 12 volts at both sides of the fuse.

Hello,

Check to make that the brake lights are working - shift interlock is in the same circuit - could be a bad fuse.

You can try turning the key (with engine off) o

to the first position (Unlock) shift to neutral to start vehicle and then shift to "Drive or Reverse"

Thanks

I have the same problems and it's a real pain but I was told by a Honda mechanic that he unhooked the battery cable and put it back on and it resets the indicator. It works for a little while but it has to be done over and over. When the indicator gets reset, it also releases the gear shift lock. I loosen the left side battery cable to the point where it will hold in place but can be lifted off without having to loosen the bolt. It seems to work best if you do this after parking it for the night and hooking it back up in the morning. I'd like to figure out how to fix it permanently but haven't gotten there yet.

Replace fuse 57 (15 amp) then disconnect battery and wait 30 to 45 minutes before reconnecting the battery.

My 2006 BMW 325I had the same problem with the door locks not responding. I checked all related fuses and found #57 (15 amp) was the only related fuse blown. I put in a new fuse and it still would not work. I then disconnected the battery for a while then once I reconnected the battery everything worked fine.

I believe I blew the fuse while repeatedly pushing the unlock button rapidly while walking across the parking lock to the car. I suggest only pushing the unlock button only once or twice.

This may seem like a silly solution but it's worth a try if it gets you out of this jam. I believe the Kia has a safety feature where it won't let you shift the car out of park unless the break peddle is fully depressed. Try stomping on the break peddle while you start the car. Then see if it will let you shift out of park. If this doesn't work try pumping the break peddle a few times and try it again. If this doesn't work check the fuse box. Maybe the fuse for the actuator in the gear shift lever that lets you take it out of park is burnt out. I hope this helps you out.

Touch Key metal to lock cylinder metal then unlock
