I have a 1990 chev 2 wheel drive pickup and all of the sudden it wont shift out of park I'm wondering if it has a park neutral safety switch and if so how hard is it to replace. or what could my problem be i took the linkage off the tranny and still it wont shift if i jack it up in the rear it still wont shift. if ya cant help i would be grateful

So even with the linkage disconnected from the transmission you can't shift the transmission by hand or you can't get the shifter to move? Sounds like a funny suggestion but do you have your key turned off of lock?
