From the owner's manual 2001 Honda Odyssey:
1. Set the Parking brake.
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Place a cloth on the edge of the shift lock release slot cover on the steering column.
Remove the cover by carefully prying on the edge with a small flat-tipped screwdriver.
4. Insert the key in the Shift Lock Release slot.
5. Push down on the key while you pull the shift lever towards you and move it out of
Park to Neutral.
6. Remove the key from the Shift Lock Release slot, then install a new cover. Depress
the brake pedal and restart engine.
If you need to use the Shift Lock Release, it means your vehicle is developing a problem. Have the vehicle checked by Honda.
It might be the brake pedal switch
The shift lock release is usually a button on the side of a shifter. The shift lock release button needs to be pushed in before the car can be moved from Park to another gear.
is there a shift lock relaese on a 1999 grandam se
Check to see if stop lights are working - same fuse controls both shift interlock and stop lights
If a Honda Odyssey has an alarm problem, simply pull the hood release latch and locate the hood latch lock in the center of the Honda, in front of the radiator. Locate the wiring harness next to the hood latch on the right side and pull up on the locking tab in the center of the harness and unplug it.
Hit the battery with a hammer... that should do the trick
I read in another forum that it might be the brakelight switch that is making the shift lock, lock up.
I think you have to get out lock doors and open with key,this resets it.
if you can't shift out of park or sometimes when the key can't be removed sometimes it helps to remove the cap of the shift lock release and press the button with a key, pen, or whatever fits in there to depress it.
very carefully reme it and remove plug and reverse the pro cesure
Stuck in park huh? Well the only real way is to change the faulty shift module, which is the shifter itself. There is a way to manually release the shift lever but it requires drilling slightly. These do not have a shift lock release, because the S class does not have a steering lock, so they lock the shifter instead.
So that you don't shift the gear selector by accident
