Is the interlock disengaging?

Is the foot brake switch working?

 

Is the interlock disengaging?

it will not go to the park, position, i moved the mechanism shaft, tried manually,
Is the foot brake switch working? what is the foot brake switch, i will post, pictures,

Please advise, thanks for the response

 

The switch operated by the foot brake allows the lever to shift into and out of the park position.

When you put your foot on the pedal you should hear a click in the J gate, this is the solenoid releasing the inter lock to allow the shifter to move

 

NO, I do not hear , a click, and now i cannot get my key out, i get a fast beep, telling me the car is still in Gear,

Thank you. for your time, also
..
Please advise Herb

 

also, the cable , to the transmission, does not move , please advise, the J gate is the original the plastic piece to move the shifter was broken, when it was towed, so i just replaced the disk and plastic piece under it .....

 

The manual lever at the transmission it self may be seized. If you take the 3 8mm bolts out holding the cover on (underneath the trans) you can pop the cable off the manual lever and see if the shifter moves freely. If so you will need to spray penetrating oil into the manual lever bushing and try and work it back and forth. There isn't a really good "fix" for this unfortunately

 

This broke, on the jgate, i replaced it , with new parts and still have the original Jgate, in thier ...
here are pics of the jgate i purchased on ebay, and the broken parts from the original , .... it was broken when it was towed, someone tried to force, the shifgter into gear, it was working and running before it , went to the body shop and could imagine that a shop / body guy, may of finished breaking the plastic, to get the key out....... hence hte broken piece of plastic...........
