What new plate did you put in?
You could've broken your cable. Mine somehow got broken. Looked fine but didn't have the travel that it should've had.

Did you maybe break the plastic rod that goes down through the shifter that releases the lock when the button is pressed?

Give the shifter a little push forward, ill bet it will lock into park then
