Unhappy Transmission Scare

So my dad drove my car and then told me that the car would not come out of park. Thought that it was the steering lock, but it was not. The car's warning lights were on (VSA, ABS and !). The car would not come out of park. Called the service at my dealer and the guy told me to push down the shiftlock release and put it in gear. This worked but I did not have any break lights. Drove to the dealer, very carefully for 30 miles or so. They said it was a fuse in the car. Apparently one fuse controls the brake lights, shiftlock release and horn. Is this smart? Now they can't get the computer to reset the warning lights. They gave me an Integra loaner and sent me home. I don't know yet if it's okay yet. I will let you know how it turns out. Hopefully it was just a fuse and not a computer failure, because they said that they could not reset the computer because the diagnostic machine did not recognize the car's computer. They said that it might be due to a software upgrade.

I will let you know what comes of this.
