Why won't my 2001 Saturn L-Series brake lights work or shift out of park?

I cleaned all the contacts on all the fuses for the Brakes and BCM, and found one blown fuse. The combination of cleaning the contacts <good old contact cleaner> and replacing the fuse worked.

Yes, a blown brake light fuse causes the shift interlock to malfunction. If the interlock can't tell if the brake is depressed or not, it won't shift out of park. The brake light fuse is a 15A in the engine bay fuse box.

Can't get my Ford Escort out of park?
Check to see if your brake lights work. The brakes have to be pushed to get it out of park. If the brake lights don't work check the switch at the pedal. If the brake lights work the problem is with the shift interlock mechanism. There is a slot in the console with a plug in it. Take the plug out and insert a small screwdriver. This will allow you to shift out of park. To fix the shift interlock you must take the console off. The shift interlock is about $37 and easy to replace.
