When trying to install some speakers the battery died. when we jumped the car when noticed that when we tried to take the car for a test run, it would shift into gear (example reverse) it when into the gear but wouldnt reverse. Wont drive nothing but reving. We did have the E brake on but even when we took the e brake off it will not go. I was thinking maybe we blow the safety sensor... or a fuse... I have no idea. And help?

    Suggest a scan to get to the root of the problem and to check for codes or electrical problems-Maybe a solenoid? no fuse that could cause this problem could also be the shifter cable if you now have no gears.
