ABSTRACT:
A transmission lock for locking column-operated automatic transmission of a running motor vehicle. A lock cylinder operable only by a mating key includes a radially extended ear. The automatic transmission is provided with a collar or ring that includes a portion engageable by the extended ear of the lock cylinder. When in a locked position, the extended ear prevents movement of the automatic transmission by engagement with the collar or ring. Pivotal movement of the cylinder by the mating key to a free position disengages the extended ear and permits free operation of the transmission. A second embodiment locks console-operated automatic transmissions.
