On a 95 there is a vacuum actuator that releases it. Check that a vacuum signal is getting there when running and shifted to rev/drive. Replace the vacuum actuator if a signal is present. There is a manual release for it, down on the pedal assembly. There is a switch that will release the parking brake check out the diagrams below.
