where is the shift interlock selenoid located on a 2001 chevy malibu
the obdii reds p0740 but i think the trasmission is not that bad
You take off the brakes and repair the interlock shock by buying a new one DDDDDDDDDDDDuhhh
put your foot on the brake.... if that doesn't work you have to fix the wiring for the brake/transmission interlock
i connect all the wires the way i took them off the old selenoid and the starter selenoid and wires keep gettin hot and has burnt out the selenoid,replaced starter had the truck running fine shut it off and went to start it and the selenoid melted
First you check to see if the selenoid is working by turning the ignition key and listen for a click on the selenoid if you hear a click the selenoid is probably working. Then you take a test light and put it on one side of the large wire which should have power if you turn the key on. If you have no power on either side your trouble is before the selenoid. If you have power on one side but not the other when you hear the click of the selenoid, when you turn the key on, your selenoid is not working.
It could be that the shift interlock is not releasing. There is an override switch underneath the steering column or the shifter console.
No you can not over ride the shift interlock. You can manually over ride it, but you will have to do it again every time the vehicle gets stuck in park. There is a recall on that specific part. I suggest going to your local dealership and having them fix it once and for all.
Sounds like two different problems. As for the tail lights it could be either a fuse of a defective headlight switch. The shifter would be a problem with you shift interlock device. There is a way to disable the shift interlock but I wouldn't recommend it.
what are the types of interlock in steam turbine
On top of the starter.(usually)
I had the same problem. First is it recommended to comand the air pump on that is located underneath the driver seat bolted to the frame. If that turns on then the motor is good. Then it said to check the 2 hoses connected to the pump and that run to the selenoid to the top left of the motor to see if the hoses are clogged. Then I removed the selenoid located on the left of the motor, and fed power and ground from a external power source on the two pins of the selenoid. It didnt open and then replaced the seleniod, ran through a drive cycle and it was fixed correctly
