Probably the best brake switch replacement video for 2010 F150's that's out there. Even showed the fusebox and fuse number. Thanks! Hopefully I don't have to replace the entire shift mechanism, since I forced the shifter out of park just to get it home. But your video shows the best action of the shifter solenoid pawl and shift gate mechanism.

Thanks a ton for posting. I am way up in the mountains. My 2015 F150 would not shift out of park. I had removed my console shifter trim awhile back when I installed the electronic trailer brake module, so I was familiar with that. My 15 is a little different but now I can shift and drive and return to park. More importantly I can get back home and fix permanently. Again, thanks for posting you saved my a$$!

There is an easy fix for the shift interlock that might work for you. It worked for me. Remove the console panel over the shifter mechanism. If you have an older F150 like I do, you will find a lot of dirt, grease, and crumbs under there. Vacuum out as much as you can. Find the interlock release button. Depending on the year, it could be on the right or the left of the shifter. With the truck running, engage the brake and see if the release button moves. If it doesn't, try this: Get a can of pressurized air like is used to clean computer keyboards. Put the red nozzle on the sprayer and start to spray. Get all around the interlock and even try to squirt air inside it. It might take a little while. Even a small piece of dirt can stop the release from working. If it works for you it can change a hassle into a five minute fix. At worst, you cleaned your console.

Why has nobody caught the fact that the blue "brake light switch" that he showed replacing is not the brake light switch. It is the cruise control deactivation switch. The BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH is to the right of it, and is mounted directly to the pedal lever, and brake booster rod. If you replace the switch he shows you won't fix a thing, as it does not effect the interlock circuit.

Similar issue in 2004 Ford Freestar Minivan.. Mine was intermittent.. obviously brake related. If I started the Engine in Park, it would never come out of Park. Solution: Move the Trans to Neutral, then Start the Engine. 1. To make it work: a. Insert Key, klick Once to the Right. b. Move transmission to NEUTRAL. Apply Foot Brake c. Turn the Key to Start, Move to Drive. 2. In My Case, Fix it. (Your Mileage may vary) a. Bleed ALL 4 Brakes: Apparently there is both a Brake Sensor, and Brake Pedal Excursion Sensor.. If when pressed, the Brake Pedal go in too far, you cannot get out of Part. With the Engine Running and Power Brakes operational, any push on the brake trips the sensor.
@markhall34342 жыл бұрын
UPDATE:: The make it work above is SOLID. Bleeding the Brakes helped, but did not solve the Intermittent problem. Replacing the Brake Switch DID!!. Always check your Brake Lights FIRST!! The Original switch is pretty Cheesey.. Looks like the push plunger mushroomed, and probably limited the Travel. You can snap the top off the original switch (Not the Replacement), and clean the contacts. Replacement switch was $24 from NAPA Auto Parts.. easy to swap. Find a Video showing how the Bushing gets re-inserted and the switch snapped on.

I was told the tranny was replaced. I know it has something to do with the shifting cable. Mechanics here are crooks.
