What is the Shift Interlock Solenoid all about?

Solenoids are cylindrical coils of metal wire that carry electric currents. The shift interlock solenoid ensures you can’t shift from Park to Drive without first applying the brake. The solenoid inside the interlock system is what allows you to move the shifter. When the brake pedal is pressed, the solenoid receives a signal that releases a mechanical lock on the shifter and allows it to be moved. The shift interlock solenoid also enables the shifter to be moved from Neutral to Reverse and, from Reverse to Park. If the solenoid does not receive the brake pedal signal, the shifter will not be released from its current position. You may not be able to shift out of Park, or if you are in Drive, you may not be able to shift past Neutral back into Reverse or Park.

Keep in mind:

  • If you can’t get out of Park, a dysfunctional shift interlock solenoid is not the only possible culprit.
  • If a light on your dashboard indicates that the brake lights aren’t working, your shift interlock may not work either.

How it's done:

  • The vehicle battery is disconnected
  • The defective shift interlock solenoid is removed
  • The new shift interlock solenoid is installed
  • The battery is reconnected
  • The vehicle is tested and shifter operation is checked

Our recommendation:

The shift interlock solenoid does not require servicing. It is meant to last the lifetime of your car. If your shifter will not come out of Park, or is stuck in gear, have one of our expert mechanics diagnose the system and replace the shift interlock solenoid if required.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Shift Interlock Solenoid?

  • Shifter will not move out of Park
  • Key will not come out of the ignition

How important is this service?

Though it does not present a safety concern, your vehicle is unusable in many cases until the shift interlock solenoid is repaired. Getting your faulty interlock solenoid replaced is essential for normal car operation.

Cadillac Seville V8-4.6L - Alternator - Plano, Texas
I thought Travis did a good job...and when I did not have the right alternator bought prior to his arrival he agreed to come back the following morning to finish the job. I want to mention that I did on the initial job description let you know that I would be getting the alternator myself which I had done already...it just happened to be the wrong one...thats my fault. Travis thinks he got a 1 star rating when I thought I had given him a 1 star..rating..I dont know why that happened. But I did notice you charged me $170.98 twice against my account...He had half the work done when he returned the second time to finish with the correct alternator. He has no real beef with me at all so Im not sure he understands the full story. The text he sent was not expected. Also I get another notice from you about another problem and another booking for something on my car I am not even aware of or we even discussed.. please call me at 214- 287-1607 Unreal!
