Good afternoon,

You need spark, fuel pressure and compression for it to start.

Have you checked anything at all?

Yes, the starter won't crank, all fuses are good, no broken wires that I can find. Don't have any power coming to the starter on the ignition wire.

Got it.

I attached a wire diagram for you to view.

Do you have a test light or voltmeter to do some checks?

Just a thought here; but have you had the key checked? If this is a pass-lock or pass-key setup, a faulty key could easily be the problem as far as cranking over. As for the shifter not coming out of park, I'd check the brake light switch circuit.
