For the reverse light, it's probably the "reverse switch" on the trans. Besides that I'm not much help, don't know a lot about transmission internals. Sorry.

first off, obviously this is only speculation and a suggestion since i do not claim to be any kind of an expert on your situation.........

so ok, you're not even running......you could try getting somebody to rock your car back and forth while trying to move it in and out of gear while pressing the clutch the whole time - get creative and try some different things while somebody is has shifted your car to the front or to the rear. sounds as though there is weight/pressure on the trans as if the car is sitting on a hill and the transmission is stuck in some funky position.

are you parked on a hill or any kind of grade? if so, have your friend try pushing in that direction while you move the shifter around. if that doesn't work, try pushing it towards the other direction.

you could also try jacking the rear up off of the ground in order to get the pressure off of the transmission. then shift it the transmission around to see if you can get it to pop out of the position that it is stuck in. try rotating the rear wheels / drive shaft to see if that helps to get it out of that position. again, get creative.
