Car will start but will not shift out of PARK into DRIVE
Your cadillac has an interlock solinoid that is activated by the brake pedal, make sure that your pushing the brake pedal before you try to move the shifter
Where is this interlock solenoid located?

Lets start by checking your brake light switch.
Your car has a switch on the brake pedal that not only makes the brake lights come on, but also tells the transmission it can shift out of park.
This really may be 2 separate switches, but should be under the dashboard and both should "open" when you push the brake pedal down.
Take a good flashlight and look.
The switches are small, about the size of your thumb, and both should have 2 wires attached to them.
Be blessed.

sounds like you have a bad brkae light switch, which is located on the brake pedal assembly. a bad switch will not let you shift out of park and you will not have any brake lights as the car does not recognize that the pedal is being pushed and brakes engaged. easy to replace switch if you are handy, if not this is a inexpensive repair at any mechanic. hope this was helpful is so please rate 4 thumbs.

Push the brake with the key on, then shift. There is a electric safety on the brake so kids don't knock it out of gear.

check diagnostic codes.could possibly be crankshaft and camshaft position sensor

first disconnect the battery and wait ten minutes this will dis able the battery. then get a manual there are several small parts that need to go in a certain way. and for the guy that his car starts then dies sounds like your exhaust system is plugged, simple test disconnect the exhaust just before the catalytic converter and start the engine see it still dies. and the problem isn't even close to the same
