Default Shifter locked

Need help!! Shifter is locked in park. Starts up fine, just won’t shift out of park. I’m an old school mechanic that gets lost on vehicles without an ashtray.

This "May" work.

Check to see if you have brake lights. If not, replace the fuse. If you do, I can't help ya.

Default AC outlet cover open?

Couldn’t get mine with 2kw generator out of park. Had been using the bed receptacle. When I unplugged a power tool the receptacle cover hung up on a bed mat and hadn’t closed. Shifter function returned upon closing the bed receptacle cover.

shifter is on a 2022 f-150 platinum 4x4.
console shifter with office fold down option. Replaced shifter with used one, same problem. Will not unlock out of park, like your brake isn’t pressed but have brake lights and engine will start after pressing pedal.
