I have a 2006 pontiac vibe. The shift is in the center console area (not on the steering wheel) and at night you can't tell if you are in park, reverse, or drive bc their are not lights. Are they burned out or is the car not equipped with lights for that?

2003 PONTIAC VIBE CANNOT GET CAR OUT OF PARK. STEERING IS FROZEN. KEY TURNS ON LIGHTS ETC. BUT WILL NOT START CAR

Put the emergency brake on. Find the shifter lock override slot, which is usually located on the shifter console close to the shift lever. The slot will be plugged with a plastic cap. Remove the cap and push down on the button with a nail file or other pointed object.

Pontiac vibe 2003 cannot get out of park

Have someone check for the brake light when you are on the brake,
This will rule out a bad brake switch interlock and / or fuse.
=========
Take the key out Gently rock the steering and listen for a click (spring return)

=========
Put the key in and start the car Turn the steering wheel end to end and listen for any sound.

This rule out any steering issue.
========-
Check the plastic push button
Check the connector to the interlock under the shifter.

iF YOUR PONTIAC HAS ELECTRIC OR ELECTRIC ASSIST STEERING, THEN IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE MISSING TEETH/DAMAGED GEAR INSIDE THE ELECTRICAL STEERING ASSEMBLY. THIS WOULD CAUSE THE NOISE AND THE OFF CENTER STEERING CONCERN.

Where can I find the fuse box that is supposed to be under the instrument panel on the driver side

You have to lay on your back under the steering wheel (pain!!) and get a flashlight ..... its under there. Just a STUPID location. (close to the plastic cover aroung the steering wheel shaft)

Key stuck in ignition

Hope this helps all.... If the key is stuck (won't come out) and the column is NOT locked, one the gear shift there is a plastic sleeve. Put the gear shift in park...slide your hand below the knob and pull that sleeve up! Presto!!! it locks in park and the key comes out. I just put all the stuff i took apart back together... the other solutions may work but this is the first step to check... no tools and you know right away...
