Foot on the brake and rack through the gear selector a few times back to park. That should release the key. Then with a can of WD40 with the red tube, squirt it into the key slot until it bubbles out.
No , it's not the park neutral switch , The park neutarl switch won't allow the vehicle to start if not in park or neutal , has nothing to do with turning off the vehicle . Problem with the shift lock contro system probably !
Park Lock Control System (Regal)
The park lock control system is a safety device that prevents an inadvertent shift out of PARK when the ignition is OFF. The system consists of the following components:
• The automatic transmission park lock solenoid
• The brake to shift relay
• The body control module (BCM)
• The powertrain control module (PCM)
With the ignition in the OFF position the park lock control solenoid is de-energized. This mechanically locks the shift lever in the PARK position. With the ignition in the ON position, battery voltage is supply to the park lock control solenoid. The control circuit of the park lock solenoid is provided a ground through the brake to shift relay when energized. The body control module (BCM) supplies a ground for the brake to shift relay when the body control module (BCM) receives a class 2 message from the powertrain control module (PCM) indicating the transmission is in the PARK position. This closes the normally open contacts of the brake to shift relay and grounds the park lock control solenoid. This energizes the park lock control solenoid releasing the mechanical park lock.
Sorry , but your best bet would be to take your vehicle to a qualified repair shop .
Sounds like the anti theft system is active m try this process. Turn the key on. Do not attempt to start. Wait 10 minutes. Turn key off. Turn key on. Wit for theft light to go off. Now attempt to start.
With the key out of the steering lock the indicator stalk puts the parking lights on only for which ever side you have selected. The dash lights will not come on but when you open the door you will hear the lighs lft on chime
Odds are your security system is having intermittent problems reading the key. Do you have another key to try? Is the security light on when this happens?
YOUR PROBLEM SOUNDS LIKE THE 3--VOLT BATTERY IN THE REMOTE AND AFTER REPLACING IT TURN KEY ON AND OFF 5 TIMES AND PRESS ONE OF THE BUTTONS ON THE REMOTE TO RESET IT
1. Put the newly cut Master key into the keyway and turn it to the ON (RUN) position. A "security" indicator light on the dashboard will stay on for 10 minutes. 2. Within 1 minute after the indicator light goes off, turn the ignition to "OFF", then return to the ON (RUN) position. The indicator light again will stay on for 10 minutes (Do not remove the key.) 3. Again, within 1 minute after the indicator light goes off, turn the ignition to "OFF", then return to the ON (RUN) position. The indicator light again will stay on for 10 minutes. (Do not remove the key.) 4. When the light goes off the third time, the new key is programmed into the computer and will start the car. Remove the key and then re-insert it into the ignition lock and start the car. All previously stored codes will be erased. To stop the process at any time, simply remove the key and use an existing key to start the car.
