Blk n Blu Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 The shifter got locked up (won't release) it's stuck in neutral and drive. Not sure if anything is broken in there yet. Anyone else out there run into this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2krtaf Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I've seen it talked about on the big board. Hopefully it was nice enough to do it to you at your house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRbob Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Probably not the best solution.. But it has happened to me before, In a desperate situation I just held my foot on the brake and slapped the shifter forward as hard as I could and it worked fine again after that. Make sure you put your foot on the brake when you do this.. Something is probably out of adjustment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Is it running ? If not then I would say stand on the brake pedal and wiggle it a bunch. If so then get it home and shut it off then try the above step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corvettech Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 ive seen the btsi solenoids go out on these shifters, but that usualy leaves them stuck in park. in those cases taping the brake pedal a bunch of times will sometimes unstick the solenoid. im thinking something came apart from your shifter, how comfortable are you with pulling the center ip trim off and lifting up the shifter boot? you should be able to get a good look in from there.

Real comfortable, pulled it apart. The shifting assembly was fubar. Midway had one in stock and I just got it put back together. Thank you for the help.

Thank you for the help. that's great news glad I could help. on the plus side the new shifters have an updated btsi solenoid so you shouldn't have any issues with it.

Kyle Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 My 07 Is starting to have the issue with it stuck in park. Solenoid either not retracting all the way or not at all sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
