The shift interlock system won't release the shifter until you apply the brake. Since your brakes lights aren't working either, I suspect you've got a bad or out of adjustment brake light switch located above the brake pedal

Check the prones inside the connector that you plug into the brake light module. You may have to squeeze, wiggle, tilt each one to see which one is not connecting all that good. I know it may sound confusing. I tried to explain the best of I could.

I assume you mean the one on the dash. This is an indicator that there is a problem in your braking system. Make sure it's not low on Brake fluid and have the brake system checked or check it yourself. If your going to check it yourself I recommend the Haynes repair manual on your vehicle as a reference.

Take it to the dealer to fix it for a permanent solution, but there is a quick fix when in a bind...
There is a little key space on the left side of Park, take a screwdriver and open that and then take the screwdriver and touch the pad that is about an inch down in that hole, while touching it, you can put the car into any gear.
It is your celluloid that is sticky, which sometimes happens in hot/muggy weather. You may need that replaced.
