I'm assuming you mean the shift blind broke. This is a common failure, but inexpensive to DIY repair. The shift blind carries a magnet that signals the shifts.

It was the shift blind, not a terrible job. parts cost me all of $13 took me an hour to tear it all down and then put it back together. getting the gear shift **** off was a pain but other than that it everything popped out or unbolted easily. I did break the radio trim piece and ordered a new one.
