Auto or manual?
What model?
What Year?
Is your clutch in?
Is the car on?
Did you try turning it off and on again.
... actually never mind that, just check error codes.

I recently had that problem, Only all my gears fucked up i could only use 1st n 3rd. Just get Dstocks to get you one it will cost you bout 60$ in total. Not a big expense then you can get a mechanic/tranmission expert to fix it for you or you can do it yourself.
