Man I’ve got a 91 z71 I put my heart and soul and throw money at to no end. I’ll never part with it. I appreciate you and your truck. Stick it out till yours is yours. Every last piece and no other is that one

Dude, your video just saved my ass from embarrassment in a Costco parking lot! Kudos!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I’ve nearly ripped my shifter off in full fury because of this little crapper! I did exactly the same as you, rocked it back and forth, tried shaking the shifter etc etc, but nothing really worked. Gonna try this little switch right now!

Just had this happen to me in negative 25 degrees temperatures on ChristmasEve. Thank you for putting this video on. You really saved me.

Thank you so much omg today was the worst day and then the truck wouldn't go into gear i was crying stranded & i saw your video and fixed my truck praise god thanks man alot

You're a life saver!! Wasn't sure if this was the problem or not but that disconnecting tip proved it was and now I can at least drive to go pick up the part! Thanks a bunch!!

I have a 2001 Chevrolet Silverado and I back in the my driveway and I backed up a little bit to far and I went to put it in drive and it wouldn't go down in drive and want go in park but I can crank it up in nugle and It want down in drive?

Thank you! I am having the same issue with my 2005 GMC Canyon. Now I know how to fix it.

I got a 98 GMC Sierra four-wheel drive extended cab 1500 in this video was very helpful thank you because I just started having this problem today and I'm going to just take the stupid thing off because I had an old K5 Blazer back in the day and it did not have a safety any of the old squarebodys I was ever in my dad had a 78 actually two different 78i 1-ton long bed and a K-5 and I also had an 83 Suburban none of anyway my point is is none of the square bodies had a safety feature all you had to do was turn the key and you can pull it out of work you didn't have to have your foot on the brake my 77 OVGuide was the same way and my dad had a 79 Z28 and 74 Z28 and they were like that too anyway so I'm just going to disconnect the thing and do it like old school

Thanks for the video. That is exactly what’s going on with my truck. Much appreciated.

Thank you so much so helpful, I'm going to pull it off myself tonight!

Hey man you saved me! My 99 suburban has this issue. I'm positive you have to do the same thing I did to get it before it locked for good. But now that I know what it is I can get it out the way

How much for earl bro wit the reps??

In all my years of owning, driving, working on, old dilapidated Chevy trucks I'm shocked this hasn't happened to me yet.

AWESOME!! THANKS this is my same issue rt now..All of a sudden it wouldn't shift out of park..Annoyed!! I turned the key like you suggested, went rt into next gear(started vehicle in neutral) ...I will be replacing ASAP

Thanks, bud that's the wire I was looking to cut! Works like a 1968 Ford now.

Thanks for the great video. My work van is doing this. What a pain in the ars.

Hey boss man good morning just wanted to stop in and say thank you for the video my ex-wife got into a situation like that with her friend's truck and they couldn't figure out what the problem is good looking out God bless you thank you 🙏

Videos are always dope as these folks say

Thank you it's embarrassing to get stuck in the parking lot and so aggravating. Thanks for video greatly appreciated. My hubby will also be grateful. Yay!

This was extremely helpful! Ive been dealing with this for awhile now and could only shift if my brake pedal was pressed in a weird way. On a side note if im able to grab my steering wheel and shake it and move it around what would be the fix for that?

Thanks been fighting with this for a while. Rock for weeks

Thank you. This solved the problem. Works great now

Not all hero’s wear capes! The looks I got shaking my truck.

Just had this issue today. Hopefully your video help me

Got a problem that sounds very much like yours my truck is a Chevy Colorado and it's stuck in park so glad it got stuck at home showed no sign of anything till I parked it then this stuck in park trying to research the problem and sounds like there are a few causes it's a bit of a pain to run em on down and it will all start with a cable from the tranny on up at this point don't recon I know what's up yet but I sure do appreciate you talking the time to show what you whent throught now what year is your truck mayi ask thank you for sharing

My buddy had that same problem on his obs. He pulled on the shifter so hard he broke it off of the steering column had to replace the whole steering column

Thank you. My 08 is starting to do this

I never even knew that this was a problem that existed on gmt400s. Interesting!

Lmaooo bro I just had bought that husky tool box recently and I seen it in the vid, clean vid!

Bring back the balls cooler !!! Geese these Trucks now and days don’t have them

Link to the part? What is it called? Break light switch?

Mine does the same after some drifting/ doing Donuts on gravel. But its making bad noises too... But only sometimes. Any tips? Converter? If it drives, it drives and shifts fine

Lol Happens to me all the time 😂 obs problems

Same problem with mine a while back. Brake light switch

Thanks great video I'm on the parking lot doing the same thing

Buddy I have a 2007 classic body style Duramax and I have air but no balls chiller!!! Man I got robbed!! Mine won’t go into park!! I’ve been trying to figure out if I have a stretched cable or if I might have the same issue that you are having??? I am jealous now and I’m definitely going to have to get a ball chiller now!!! Lol!!

These obs trucks are gorgeous trucks

i am a little confused by this video.i had the same problem on my 99 but when i purchased a new solenoid i realized that it defaults to unlocked when not energized. so if its locking its working. the brake light swith is what turns off the power to unlock it. and the brake light switch wears out and wont travel far enought to disconnect power. in short if you disconnect battery and can shift out of park the solenoid is fine but the brake light switch is faulty.

I replaced mine and it works better but still gets stuck every once in a while. It’s in correctly without a doubt. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 1995 OBS C1500

I replaced this part, but it wasn't the issue. My mechanic told me to check my brake lights, and they weren't working. He told me it needed a brake light switch. (GM D891A for me). Got it installed a few minutes ago, and it shifts just fine and I now have brake lights. I haven't taken it on the road as of yet, but my cruise control went out at about the same time, and I'm hoping that works now too.

Thank you brother!

I have worked for UPS and the mechanic replaced the brake light switch all the time in the GM package cars. And that was like at least one a week 😬🙄. It was the same problem lol the Ford’s never had this problem. Way to go GM!!!

I know that button is for the aftermarket security system but what does it do I can’t get mine to work

What us that part called I don't think you mentioned it in your video

I’ve got the same problem, but my brake pedal is not hard when I press it. I have to keep pumping it until it gets hard or I have to shut it off pump it when it gets really hard then turn the key on then I have to pump the brakes could be that my master cylinder is bad.

Star light headliner would be dope aswell 👌

Thank you!!!

You are 23 miles from 222,222. Get a pic of that!

I just removed mine ( 2001 2500 HD ) throwed it in the trash and did not put another in . No problem after 6 months and going good . Watch those kids though !

Make sure that that whole part that he got off of Amazon didn’t get just displaced from where it’s supposed to be snapped in before you order a part off of Amazon; it might be a matter of just gorilla glue in the thing back in place where it goes in a couple of zip ties and you’re good for the rest of life for that vehicle. Without ordering Chinese shit.

old school vehicles did not have the brake safety feature....so us old guys are used to not having to deal with this

I had a 99 GMC Dinali with the same Problem

PLEASE HELP! Truck won’t shift out of park unless I force it, in which I can get it into reverse and no further. I’ve already disconnected that unit and it still is stuck!

I have a similar issue, hard as hell to shift, occasionally it'll pop and wont shift into drive sometimes unless I go all the way down to second gear and start rolling before I toss it back up into drive, then everything is kosher. Gonna be troubleshooting tomorrow until I figure it out or get so stoned I cant see anymore.
