Help II...replaced the battery, now the shifter is stuck
After troubleshooting (successfully) the battery drain, I installed the battery back in the car.
Now I cannot move the shifter from Park. Also, radio does not come on at all, its not reacting to "on-off", no usual "code" message. The fuse for the radio is ok.
Depressing the shifter lock (little tab next to the shifter) will release the shifter; tranny works fine, I can drive the car with the screwdriver in that spot.
No CEL, it seems that everything else works fine.
Now what? it seems that with my car if I fix one thing, something else breaks

Ok, the "Dumbass of the Week" award goes to me: when I was pulling interior fuses to figure out which circuit is draining the battery, I accidentally had replaced Accessory (slot #32) into HAC OP (slot #33). Everything is working the way it should (knock on wood)
