Automatic shift lever problem.

Okay, when your engine is running there is a slight amount of sensing voltage that runs through your brake circuit which is why you have to step on the pedal to change gear. This may not be your problem but everyone else I've ever helped with this situation had a similar cause for not being able to go into gear. First thing to do is get in turn of all sources of noise like the ac or stereo and start the engine. Then lean down close to the center console and press up and down on your brake pedal. Every time you do so it should make a slight clicking sound. That sound is the solenoid in your shift lever that is tied into the brake circuit which prevent theft/accidental shifting without the brakes being pushed in. If your not hearing that sound then it's time to start taking apart your console. Sometimes just unplugging and plugging the darn thing in will make it work again, or you might be able to just leave it unplugged as I've done in other cars. In any case who needs a shift lock button anyway?

My shift lock was hanging up and making it difficult to move out of park. There is a cable that runs under the dash to the console. Mine was stretched and needed adjustment. The photo attached proved helpful when I adjusted mine. I can't recal where I finally found the information (sorry author!). Works like a charm now in my 2000 Rodeo.

ok so I took apart my isuzu dash and unplugged the locking device so i can now drive my car but my brake lights dont turn on at all... what now?

CHECK YOUR BRAKE LIGHTS to see if they are working. Check several times in case the Brake Light Switch only works intermittently. If ANY Brake Light problems appear, Replace the Brake Light Switch. I did on my 1999 Isuzu Trooper. It not only solved the "stuck in park" problem, it turned-off the ABS light and the cigar lighter works too. All of those circuits are tied together. If one component fails, none work. For a small guy, it's a 10 minute, $30.00 fix. For large guy, it's a $30.00, one-hour fix, because you may have to remove the driver's set to get up under the dash where the brake pedal and switch are located.

DISABLE THE DESIGN FLAWS AND USE COMMON SENSE.

1999 trooper. As soon as the weather turned cold my shifter did not want to come out of park. If i heat up the shaft at the base of the shifter eventually i hear the solenoid click and release so i can get into gear. However, we hit 30 degrees yesterday and even with a hair dryer on hot i was unable to get her moving .... sucks!

the brake controls that push harder on the break along with turning the key or try pulling on the cable wire coming out of the shifter by pushing up on it if you hear something moving in the sterring column when you do that then the screw fell out up in there next if you dont fix it you will have a hard time getting the key out
