Is it possible that the shifter is locked?
Ive not worked with the Automatic yet but it wouldnt suprise me to find that there is an electric circuit of some sort that will not allow the shifter to move unless the right criteria is met.
I would suggest trying to turn the vehicle off, putting the key in the On position and trying to change the gear selector.
Also, remove the tail lights you just installed and put the stock tails back in (shouldnt take more than 20 minutes or so). If your vehicle miraculously works after that, you can conclude that there is an issue with the product or the way they were installed.
Maybe adjust the title of your post to "cant change gears (AT) after tail light install, please help"
you may get better response with that.
