its a 1996 range rover and it is the lights on the shifter were it says p r n 1 2 3 the backlight

 

I think those lights may be driven by the shift console switch pack outstation, an electronics module where that big gulp cup could have leaked on. See attached.

 

And a common ground for many tranny things - E621, under seat. Please check. Animal hit may also have knocked the XYZ switch that tells computer what gear you have selected. On side of tranny.

 

Start by checking the battery and alternator voltage, the transmission is electronic and if the trans computer is not getting the correct amount of voltage it will act funny.
The lights flashing indicate a fault.
