I was just called into the shop to help the landlord fix his Ford F-150. The Column shift would not consistently release during brake application. No issues with the brake lights or the fuse. All working. It was the solenoid sticking ot failing. After fighting for 2 hours we both agreed to pull the shift lever out and looked at the tip and you can see the wear mark from the lock. Covered the dash and using a cutoff grinder. Cut about 1/4 inch off the very tip. Now install and presto normal functional shift lever without park interlock system. Then using the cutoff grinder and trimmed the cuff off the column plastic so installation is much easier. Total cost. ZERO Total time for project about 1 hour.
