I had this happen with a different chevy with electronic selectors. I was stuck in 4 low, so I drove it a few miles, at 25-30 miles an hour, then put it park, switched the buttons, turned it off, then tried it again and it switched. The push button is nice to have, but I don't mind the mechanical.

Did you try puting the tranny in neutral and then pressing the button?

My 2000 Z71 did that but eventually i got it to go back in. My four wheel drive wasn't working. Took it to the dealership and the mechanic said he just cleaned the grounds because they were a little rusted. Fixed it and now it works perfect.
