OK
did you check if your brake light comes on when you step on the paddle
you have the brake light switch on the paddle make sure it has battery power at one of the wires

The brake lock solenoid was dirty and spraying wd40 allowed the solenoid to operate. Thanks for your help.
How to expose the column on 2002 Dodge Intrepid
(1) Open drivers side door and pry panel cover on fuse box Left side of dashboard
(2) Unscrew four Phillip head screws holding left panel on
(3) Unscrew large star head screw holding column move lever and remove
(4) Grab lower panel at bottom and pull out two to three inches and
then grab as high as you can and pull straight out or hit bottom , pressure tabs
hold this panel on
(6) Under column are two star head screws remove and pull down on bottom half of
key cover, these two halves are clipped together a little twisting will help to separate
