SOURCE: 2003 Cadillac CTS - the car won't shift from park

sounds like you have a bad brkae light switch, which is located on the brake pedal assembly. a bad switch will not let you shift out of park and you will not have any brake lights as the car does not recognize that the pedal is being pushed and brakes engaged. easy to replace switch if you are handy, if not this is a inexpensive repair at any mechanic. hope this was helpful is so please rate 4 thumbs.

I have a 2005 Cadillac CTS. Both my brake lights went out and don't work. Turn signal works. Could it be my brake actuator that isn't working or something else? thank you

Check the fuse and see if it isn't blown, if it is good, check the brake switch, it's near the top of the brake pedal on the back side.
