W124 1994 E320 COUPE GEAR SHIFTER seems to be disengaged from Transmission

[geminichrisw126]

So, I have a weird one... The car seems to have transmission issues. However the kick down switch under the gas pedal is broken, and the fuses all needed to be replaced.. But I was driving home shifting manually through the gears, the car was stuck in second, when it seems that the gear shifter became disconnected with the actual transmission.... We cannot turn the car on, because its the car is not sure what gear its in (nuetral safety switch?),... but the radio will not turn on with the key in the 2 position... I am sure its going to cost a good bit,,,. but any ideas so that maybe I can just drive the car to the tech instead of adding another $150 to the problem for a tow...

p.s. i disconnected the battery for a day, to maybe reset the radio to be able to punch in the code.... That is my next attempt... all fuses were change with the high quality ceramic ones... other than that... we know nothing on the car... had a w126 and was pretty knowledgeable on vacuum systems... little Benz oddities, and the wrong voltage of a bulb can make things go crazy... but I am new to the w124
