My truck will not shift from park brake lights work though, windows will not roll down on all four windows, side view mirrors do not move. The miles on the truck does not show up on the dash. The electric petals wont move from the switch and top console with direction has stopped as well.

Changed the Shift lock actuator thinking that was the problem, but nothing has changed. On my fuse panel half are getting power I checked with a test light the are not though.

Any an all help would be greatly helpful an appreciated.

Check fusible links in picture and check all fuses under hood.

It seems you have lost power to this lower circuit on this diagram, the power comes from fuse number eight in the fuse junction box in the engine compartment. Not sure what fuse boxes you have checked, but highlighted in yellow you will see there are a couple of fuse-able links to check that run power to this fuse junction box.

All my fuse links are hot now to get it in gear I have to press the brake an pull in on the gear selector an then keep pulling on it when I crank the truck to be able to get it out of park, but still have no windows, wipers are working, and the electric pedals will not move.

Any other helpful tips would be a big help.

Then you still have an open power circuit somewhere. Okay, here is another wiring diagram to go through. This junction box also contains a generic electronic module. So you may have to pull this fuse panel down and check behind it to see if there is anything going on there. Its under the left hand side of the dash, so driver's side. I am sorry we cannot be more help right off the bat, but we are not looking at the truck. We can only assess what we are being told about the vehicle. Keep digging for power issues. Something is not feeding power to a major circuit.

Hey, I thank you for your help. It was not a fuse link, it was a 5-A fuse that was stopping it from shifting from park an the plug on the petals had became unplugged when taken out the dash. Plastics brake petal has gone back to working correctly now and I am able to shift back an forth into park because of one fuse.

Thanks for any and all help and diagrams that you sent. N. Box
