It would help to know the age of the car and perhaps model etc. Regardless, it most likely is the switch, they do fail. Not very hard to replace, so you could just buy one and do the work yourself. |

Yes, the shift lock solenoid allows shifting out of park only when the brake pedal is pressed, as indicated by the brake light switch. Replacement is not particularly hard. There used to be service manuals at http://www.hondahookup.com/, don't know if they are still there.
