I replaced this part, but it wasn't the issue. My mechanic told me to check my brake lights, and they weren't working. He told me it needed a brake light switch. (GM D891A for me). Got it installed a few minutes ago, and it shifts just fine and I now have brake lights. I haven't taken it on the road as of yet, but my cruise control went out at about the same time, and I'm hoping that works now too.

Make sure that that whole part that he got off of Amazon didn’t get just displaced from where it’s supposed to be snapped in before you order a part off of Amazon; it might be a matter of just gorilla glue in the thing back in place where it goes in a couple of zip ties and you’re good for the rest of life for that vehicle.

i am a little confused by this video.i had the same problem on my 99 but when i purchased a new solenoid i realized that it defaults to unlocked when not energized. so if its locking its working. the brake light swith is what turns off the power to unlock it. and the brake light switch wears out and wont travel far enought to disconnect power. in short if you disconnect battery and can shift out of park the solenoid is fine but the brake light switch is faulty.
