Ford Club WagonThe undisputed market leader in the full-size passenger van segment is the Ford Club Wagon, the passenger version of the Econoline van. The Club Wagon, the only full-size passenger van with body-on-frame construction, has always been head-and-shoulders better than the Chevrolet and Dodge full-size vans, which are built with unitbody construction techniques.
The van starts fine, depress the brake and the lever is stuck in park. Is there a mechanical linkage from the brake pedal to the shift lever? Thank you for any help you can provide me.
HI,
I'm new to the board, but have had that exact problem.
Sounds wierd, but look for a blown fuse. I've had it happen with two different fuses:
the one for the brake lights and the one for the electric locks.
Incidentally, I think I still have a short which causes different problens including the shift problem every once in a while. I'm now searching the steering column and behind the dash.
Greetings, first thing I would check is the fuse. I recently had the same problem with my Ford and found the Brake on/off switch was bad ( BOO Switch ) Very simple fix. Located on the linkage on the upper side of the brake peddle. $9.00 part. Simply change.
