Hi Everyone, me shift lock interlock is giving me fits. Brake lights are working and the fuse is good. Where is the switch or solenoid? Anyone know where a good instruction for changing out the solenoid is? Also, where can I buy one? Thanks.

I took the start inhibitor switch out and pulled the silver back plate off. It had 24 years worth of gunk and grime. I cleaned it and sanded the contacts sprayed a little electronics cleaner on the lock solenoid. At first it wouldn't crank but after a little adjustment, everything is working as designed. The link provided in this post had a schematic that explains everything. Thanks.
