I worked on a post '92 100 once and caused a problem..  I disconnected and  
replaced the switch on the trans that controls back up lights, shift  
indicator neutral start and maybe more.  After putting together the car  
wouldn't shift.  Required restting the computer, maybe by just  
diconnecting the battery, I didn't see that part.  So maybe a loose ot  
faulty multi $ function switch.
