Good morning.

First, check the battery. It needs 12.6 to be fully charged and work all the systems.

The fact it will not crank in park tells me the park/neutral switch on the shift linkage is either out of adjustment or is bad.

Does the engine crank over fast when it tries to start?

Overheated a little? Please explain.
