I picked up an 84 berlin and have been restoring it. It's been sitting on jack stands since May. The first thing i did was replace all the fluids, plugs, everything. As far as the brakes go, i replaced the pads in the front,bled them,and for the rear drums i replaced the cylinders,the shoes, and all the hardware and bled them. I just started her up a minute ago and the brake light is on and she won't shift outta park!!! Any one know what might be causing this?

Your post contains contradicting information. You say it has a t-5, the t-5 is a manual trans, thus there is no park for it to get stuck into.

 

If it is an automatic sounds like the shift control cable failed.

 

That's my fault, i was thinking of my mustang that has the T-5...

The Camaro IS an auto...

 

It could be the brake switch, the shift interlock solenoid, the shifter its self, or a wiring problem or a fuse.

where is the brake switch and the shift interlock solenoid located?

 

Can you feel the shifter physically change gears? Maybe the cable is broke or the mounting bracket fell off? I had the 2 pan bolts holding the bracket on, fall out. And I hadn't touched the tranny since the day I had bought the car

Did you check the fluid level after running the engine? Enough fluid?
