i have a 2001 kia rio and it wont shift out of park i think the netrual safety switch is bad but i just read about the brake light switch if it is not working it wont let u shift either and how hard is it to change the netrual safety switch
The only thing that the neutral safety switch does is to allow your car to start only in park or neutral. You are talking about the shift interlock device which is indeed tied into the brake switch. Make sure you have brake lights. If you dont the brake switch on the brake pedal is bad otherwise check the connections and the solenoid under the cover that is attached to the shifter. There is a little switch that allows you to shift otherwise if you want to shift now so you can move the car. There is usually a little hole with a cover on the shifter cover next to the PRNDL. Take the cover off and put your key or something in the little hole until hit the switch and you will be able to shift out of park
