I've owned a 2000 Ford Taurus for about a year with no problems. Yesterday i parked my car in our car port, but now the gear shifter will not leave park.
The car starts up perfectly, light & all work, but whne I press the brakes, I get no brake lights on the rear, and no gear shifting. A friend says its a blown fuse, yet all my fuses look to be in working order. I went to Advanced Auto Parts in hope of advice of fixing it myself, but they were of no help in this scenario.
Whats going on?
