  • Mechanisim near shift column that effects the keylock?

    is there some sort of mechanisim under the console that is integrated with all the shift column stuff that doesn't let you put the key tumbler into "lock" position until the car is in park, and if so what is it? I was cleaning out my car and i pulled the console out to get all the coke syrup out of it, and when i put it back in, i couldn't get the key to return to the "lock" position to pull the key out. I have to force it. any ideas? thanks.

    yes there is, there is a cable in that center column and if it gets moved you will have the problems you are having.

    Happened to my car when it was in for body repair only the key ended up stuck in the ignition.
