The shifter on my truck has been sticky since I bought it, but finally the other day I went to shift it into drive and the whole shifter fell. I was able to put it into drive by using the switch underneath and got it home. I replaced the whole shifter cable, and can move it now. But it will not come out of park and the switch underneath seems to be jammed.

It sounds like you have something not together right in the interlock by the ignition switch. Here are guides to help you see what's going on.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken
