Shift Interlock System. The shift interlock system prevents the shifting from "park"unless the brake pedal is depressed. The shift interlock system consists of a shift lock actuator mounted at the base of the steering column tube. If the ignition switch is in the "run" position, the shift lock actuator is continually on unless the brake pedal is depressed.
This solenoid is released by a switch on the brake pedal arm, check the wires and switch at this point.
