Default Shifter Solenoid

I have a 1995 C4 and love the car, it is my first Corvette. I have had it a few months and I read that there was a solenoid on the automatic transmittion that engages when the brakes are applied that allows you to shift out of park. My question is where is the solenoid, mine isn't working all the time. I can replace it just don't know where it is. Thanks for any info George

Under the dash at the pedal, I think.

It is to the left of the shifter under the plastic shifter plate. You can't replace it, there are no new replacements available. Just remove it.

I believe this link should work for an interesting read! A search link results won't stick but if you just "search this forum" using the C4 "tech & performance" forum:

Search for "BTSI" -
