A shifter system assembly for a steering column constructed in accordance to one example of the present disclosure includes a shifter mechanism and a brake transmission shift interface (BTSI). The shifter mechanism receives a shift lever and selectively moves between a Park position and an out of Park position. The BTSI assembly comprises a BTSI pin assembly and a solenoid coil. The BTSI pin assembly includes a blocking pin, a solenoid pin and a coupler. The solenoid pin is separate and distinct from the blocking pin. The coupler couples the blocking pin and the solenoid pin. The BTSI pin assembly moves between an extended position and a retracted position. In the extended position the blocking pin inhibits movement of the shifter mechanism out of the Park position. In the retracted position, the blocking pin allows movement of the shifter mechanism to the out of Park position.
