Look underneath the truck. On the left side of the transmission the shifter cable connects to the transmission manual lever. Inspect that and make sure it is installed properly. Make sure you have the parking brake or a wheel chocked in case the truck isn't in park.

How did you repair it? Was the plastic insert in the cable end broken?
