    Hi guys, I am new here and need help. I tried to wire back up camera to reverse light and accidentally short it. Now my car stuck in park and the only way to shift it is press the shift lock. Even when I shift it to R, no reverse light. I check all the fuse related to brake system and they are ok. What next to check?

    Yes, I disconnected the camera but still cannot shift. No error or CEL.

    Never mind, I just found the blown fuse of backup light. It's the same one for shift lock. Everything is ok now, thanks guys.
