This GMC I believe that it have a release cable under the dash. Where the brake pedal
attach with it. Every time you insert the key in ignition and turn over, you still have to
press the brake pedal that help release the cable to free the shifter. The cable the run from brake pedal to shifter could be about foot long or 3 feet long. It depend on the kind of shifter your car have. When the brake is press, it pull the cable to release the locking
device on the shifter so you can shift it. If it does not release, check the cable on the
brake pedal and the shifter for damage or defect. If it still good, check the primary cable
that runs from ignition switch to brake pedal that help release the secondary cable which
I explained above. More likely, you may need a whole steering column.
Does it help? Would you please be kind for a tips.

Shift interlock. Push the brake and shift into gear and if it is cold out you may have to push hard on the button on the shifter while holding the brake.
How do you know if a 1993 GMC Jimmy's four wheel drive has been engaged is there some kind of indicator light?
Yes there is. If you have the floor mounted shifter there is a bulb in the console that is in need of replacement. Remove the panel to get at it.
How do you remove a key that is locked in the ignition on a 1999 GMC Jimmy?
There is a broken wire below your shifter in the console. This controls a solenoid that releases the key. The shifter in the center consle has a part that controls a current to solenoid in your steering column. A quick fix is a nail or piece of wire to release the key. This is in the steering column. There is a pop out that must pushed in to release the key. A longer term fix to replace the part in the shifter.

Why won't my 1989 gmc 1500 shift out of park with the key on?
When the steering wheel unlocks,the shifter sometimes does not..Turn on key,see that the steering wheel is unlocked,then turn the wheel back andforth till the shifter releases.If it won't release,the plastic component in the column is broken. . .Very rarely does the plastic break,it just gets worn,thus making it hard to release. . .Parking on a hill without the Ebrake is what causes this to wear. . .Pull the upper column apart and replace the plastic mechanism and you will cure the problem. . . . . .

you have to cut in off the shifter its self . but there are no threads to bolt another one on so u must weld a bolt on to the top of the shifter
Why cant you take your key out of your 1996 gmc Jimmy?
My guesses are that 1. The shifter is not in park. 2. The transmission is not in park. (Other end of shifter cable.) 3. There is a safety deal on your key, grabs ahold if it for things like not being in park. This could have gone bad. -Idea, (On a late 1996 jimmy/1997) On the bottom of your steering column is a half inch round plastic tab you can remove. You can then put a screw driver up in the hole to manually push the 'key locker' open.
How do you fix a 4 wheel drive on a 1995 gmc sierra when the shifter will not go into any gears on a 4x4 shifter?
if there is a body lift on it then you will need to cut your floor board if not then check the linkage on your shifter if that is good then something is wrong with your transfer case
