Brake-Shift Interlock – Column-Shift Transmission

WARNING: Do not drive your vehicle until you verify that the
brakelamps are working.

WARNING: When doing this procedure you will be taking the
vehicle out of park which means the vehicle can roll freely. To

avoid unwanted vehicle movement always fully set parking brake prior
to doing this procedure. Use wheel chocks if appropriate.

WARNING: If the parking brake is fully released, but the brake
warning lamp remains illuminated, the brakes may not be

working properly. See your authorized dealer.

This vehicle is equipped with a park/brake-shift interlock feature that
prevents the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) when the
ignition is in the on position unless brake pedal is pressed.

If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition in
the on position and the brake pedal pressed, or when the ignition is in
the off position, it is possible that a fuse has blown or the vehicle’s brake
lamps are not operating properly. Refer to Fuses chapter for more
information.

If the fuse is not blown, perform the following procedure:

1. Apply the parking brake.

2. Turn the key to the off position.

3. Remove the access plug on top of
the steering column.
