H2 stuck in Park

[PARK CITY H2]

Hi,

I'm a new member to this forum and I am glad to see that there is a great forum out here for hummer owners. I have had my H2 for a little over 2 years now and I have had this problem with my H2 being stuck in park 3 times now. The shift lever button will not push in and the car is truly dead where it lies until a tow truck comes and picks it up. I was told that there is a wire under the console that is coming off and causing it not to release. I could understand how this could happen once, when it happened twice I wasn't very pleased. Now for the third time and the vehicle is stuck in my garage I am pissed. Has anyone else run into this problem? I could be stuck 200 miles from nowhere and have this happen.

There is a shift interlock that releases only when you press the brake pedal. (I assume you are pressing the brake to put it in gear). You can take a smaller allen wrench (I don't remember the size) and loosen the allen screw that's in the hole on the front side of the shifter. The shifter will then slide up and off.

The cup holder plastic assembly can then be taken off to get access to these wires. I'll try to post some pics.

<H1>Automatic Transmission Shift Lock Control Description and Operation</H1>
<H5>Automatic Transmission Shift Lock Control System</A></H5>


The automatic transmission shift lock control is a safety device that
prevents an inadvertent shift out of PARK when the ignition is ON. The driver
must press the brake pedal before moving the shift lever out of the PARK
position. The system consists of the following components:</P>
<UL type=BULLET>
<LI>The automatic transmission shift lock control solenoid.
<LI>The automatic transmission shift lock control switch.
<LI>The park/neutral position switch. </LI>[/list]


With the ignition in the ON position, battery positive voltage is supplied to
the park/neutral position switch. When the transmission is in the PARK position
the contacts in the park/neutral position switch are closed. This allows current
to flow through the switch to the automatic transmission shift lock control
switch. The circuit continues through the normally-closed switch to the
automatic transmission shift lock control solenoid. The automatic transmission
shift lock control solenoid is permanently grounded. This energizes the
automatic transmission shift lock control solenoid, locking the shift linkage in
the PARK position. When the driver presses the brake pedal the contacts in the
automatic transmission shift lock control switch open, causing the automatic
transmission shift lock control solenoid to release. This allows the shift lever
to move from the PARK position.</P>
<H5>Park Lock Solenoid</A></H5>


The park lock solenoid is a safety device that prevents an inadvertent shift
out of PARK when the key is in the OFF position. The key must be in the RUN
position to release the park lock solenoid. The system consists of the park lock
solenoid. With the ignition in the ON position, voltage is supplied to the park
lock solenoid. The park lock solenoid energizes through a permanent ground
unlocking the shift lever. With the ignition in the OFF or ACCY position the
park lock solenoid de-energizes and locks the shift lever in the park
position.</P>

Perhaps your comprehension drops when "this" personality takes over. I mentioned "Me".

Try again.

My comprehension is not that great and you should know that after 3 years I would think.
