Check your shifter cable. Be sure the it is properly conncected at the tranny. Also if parked on a hill and the emergency brake was not set, it may need a little bit of force to pull the level out of park.

Remember the shifter will not move unless the brake is applied.

How do you replace the shift interlock on a 1998 Saturn SL1?

I don't know how to fix it perse, but we ran into the problem in my roommate's 98 SL2 where it was sticking and locking the key in the ignition. The problem was the actual mechanism where the shift lock connects to the gear shift was stuck or malaligned or something, if you pull out the cupholder and wiggle on it it seems to unstick it. I'm thinking a good cleaning should hopefully fix it permanently. I'm not even sure where to buy a replacement interlock.
