Asked by bigdaves4x4 Oct 10, 2016 at 07:32 PM about the 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer LT 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

When my truck is in park the key wont come out. The battery is good so I
disconnect to save from going dead. Just replaced the shifter cable bushing.
the door unlock works in park,just cant release key. I can shift the console
without activating the side button.

hey dude. same issue. you'll need a star tip screw driver, and pliers. take the handle off, there's a little yellow piece of plastic. mine got stuck in the unlocked position. i shook it around and added some graphite lube and the key comes out now. i know this is an old thread but just in case someone else has the same issue. its pretty common
