1. Unable to move shift lever with brake level depressed. 2. Shift lever moves without brake pedal depressed. |
The body control module (BCM) controls the shift lock solenoid by providing battery voltage to the shift lock control solenoid. The BCM utilizes a smart driver to control the voltage supplied to the shift lock solenoid. The smart driver monitors the voltage and current flow of the control circuit.
• | Use a scan tool to verify there are no brake pedal position sensor and/or transmission internal mode switch (IMS) DTCs set that could cause the BCM not to provide battery voltage to the A/T shift lock solenoid. |
• | If the automatic transmission shift lock control circuit is shorted to battery positive voltage, the A/T shift lock solenoid will be inoperative. The vehicle will shift out of PARK without depressing the brake pedal, with Floor Shift. On vehicles with Column Shift the shifter will be locked in PARK. |

Ignition ON, clear the DTC. Observe the scan tool BCM Brake Applied Output Signal parameter while pressing and releasing the brake pedal. The parameter should change between ON and OFF.
⇒ | If the parameter does not change between the specified values, refer to Stop Lamps Malfunction . |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
⇒ | If the function does not perform as specified, replace the shift lock actuator. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
