It is stuck in rev and the gear stick will move half the way but will not come out of rev

check linkage bars from shifter to transmission you will find 2 of them generally what happens is that the ball or pivot gets worn and ends up falling off.

SOURCE: transmission

This is only a possible explanation, and solution, as I haven't had or worked on a manual for over 30 years. Therefore this is only a "shot in the dark." Back in the 70s I helped a friend with a Chevy C-10 with the same problem.

When we got the transmission out and opened up we found that the "fork" which moved the 2nd gear assembly into and out of engagement had BENT, and become disengaged from the 2nd gear assembly.

Obviously, though he wouldn't admit it he, or someone, had put too much "muscle" into making the shift into 2nd gear, had bent the fork so badly that it became disengaged from the gear.

Rather than try restraighten it we bought and installed a new replacement fork.

I hope the problem and solution is simpler than this, but it's a possibility.

Sounds a whole lot like something inside the trans has failed...Time for a trip to the trans shop!!!1
sorry to hear that!!! Warning light came on and usually will set a code that indicates mismatch of speed & rpm.

You will have to take the top of the handle off to replace the button spring.

check and see if the brake lights work, if not that is the problem (poss switch at brake pedal), the park position is locked out by a small pin that is pulled back by a electric solenoid that is activated when you step on the brakes, it is called the park interlock, and is a safety feature, if the brake lights do work you will need to drop the steering column and test for pwer to the park pull solenoid I just mentioned above, check the owners manual as well on this issue.
