Help! My 1997 Chevy Silverado(5.7 engine, 2 wheel drive automatic transmission, 202,000 miles) gets stuck in park and it isn't because I'm parking on an incline. It doesn't matter where I park, sometimes it sticks and sometimes it doesn't. Someone suggested it may be a brake relay or switch so I checked my brake lights and they aren't working. My hazard lights and turn signals do work. Any suggestions? I'm hoping I can fix it myself this weekend if someone can identify the problem & I can find the correct parts.
Thank you

The shift interlock works off the brake light switch. If your problem is intermittent, then it's likely a bad brake light switch down at the pedal.

Thank you for the quick reply. How difficult is it to replace this switch?

Not if your a contortionist..............LOL You have to get up under the dash a bit.
