Default Stuck in park???

My 94 SC 300 shifter is stuck in park, ABS warning light is on and hard to turn steering wheel. Prior to this happening the brake warning light can on and then went off a few times upon starting the car a couple of days prior. Brake lights work. Any ideas as to what the problem is?

I figured out my issue. The ECU fuse had blown out and once I replaced it all is well.
Love it when its an easy fix. Now to tackle replacing the valve cover gaskets...
Any coaching and guidance you all can give would be appreciated...

Default Valve cover gasket replacement

I'vegotten a lot of help from folks here so just paying it forward. This is the tutorial I used to change out valve cover gaskets on my 92 SC400. The tutorial is for an LS400 but identical for this tutorial. Make sure to tighten valve covers in inch pounds which equates to about 4 ft/lbs so you don't ruin new gaskets.

Kind of a pain but you'll have a nice clean engine when you're done. I did mine while I changed the starter out. Good luck.
