My 97 gmc sierra gets stuck in park. To get out of park I had to push back and forth then shift out park. So now I have to leave it in neutral to start and turn off. Dont know what the problem is. Can you please bell me?

One cable runs under the truck and the other runs from inside the truck to the one under the truck. The sift interlock is pointed out in pic and make sure to check fuse as well.
