Service VME - Cannot Remove Ignition Key - kw console cylinder lock shift control open solenoid wire

When servicing the vehicle with the VIN you entered, the following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the described symptoms.

If you encounter a situation where the ignition key cannot be removed from the lock cylinder, the most probable cause is a broken wire or harness disconnect at the automatic transmission shift lock control solenoid located under the shift plate on the console. Simply correct the open circuit condition and provide enough slack in the harness to allow for full travel of the shift lever without placing any tension on the harness.
