Default Shift Lock

I have a 2001 C70 vert,auto trans.To shift out of Park I have to push the shift lock button on the console about 95% of the time.Is there a switch that is easily accessible that I could replace to fix this? thanks

The switch at the brake pedal should do it. You may have a sticky solenoid at the shifter or open circuit from the brake switch.
Makes you wonder why Volvo put an override switch there in the first place.
