Default Electrical Concerns

Hello everyone, I am new to both the forum and being a disco owner. I have a 2003 Discovery SE with 70,000 miles. I love it and the car runs great until this last Friday.

I started the car and it wouldn't move out of park. I know this is often times attributed to a brake light switch under the pedal. I don't think that is the issue. My brake lights work, so I popped off the shifter **** and pressed in the latch with my finger to shift the gear. Below I will list what is working and then what is not. I have checked all of the associated fuses.

What works:
Headlights, Sunroofs, Front windows, dash lights, heaters, radio, heated seats, alarm, brake light, horn, defrost buttons and all center dash buttons with the exception of the power lock.

What doesn't work:
Back windows either from the center console or from the buttons on the back windows. Central locking system either with the button or key fob. Fog lights front and back, gas door, cruise control, rear windshield wipers basically any buttons that surround the speedo dash.

So any help would be great. As I said I really love this car and I would like to get it running again as soon as I can.

Hmmmm, that is a new one... To start, let's try the easy stuff. Lock and unlock your doors three times and try again. After that, I'd look at the XYZ switch on the transmission.

I changed all of the fuses under the steering column. Could it be any of the ones under the hood? I have to think that these are all related to an electrical issue. When you say lock and unlock the doors, I assume you mean the drivers side manually? Neither the fob or the central button will lock or unlock the doors.

Yes, he means stick the key in the driver door and lock/unlock it (the trk)3 times.
