Keep looking, its a fuse for sure. Cant remember which, but it is.

For now, just use a screwdriver or something to bypass the park lock on the shifter till you find the fuse. Make sure to examine the fuse properly, it may appear to be good, but can have a micro-fracture that you cant see. Multimeter is the best way.

Checked all fuses with a multimeter and all look good. Have no idea what to do

Yea like Mr Jokster said, it is the radio 2 fuse in the drivers side. It has to do with the shifting too.
