V70 D5 2008 Geartronic stuck in R

Hi, just parked and when putting into P it got stuck in R.
There is nothing I can do, tried releasing gear selector with the key.
Can move the selector freely into any position, but only R is light up.
Can't start the car etc. Disconnected negative terminal for 10 minutes, no difference.
Looks like loose wire, connection somewhere?
Popped the cover around selector,but can't see much.
Any ideas?
Cheers!

Found out what is wrong.
Intermediate lever(gear arm) has a small ball joint that connects it to the gear selector cable/rod. It got rusty and snapped off the lever
Just under the airfilter box.
Now just needs the part.
Attaching pictures, might help someone
