Default Stupid mistake while pulling code

Okay I shouldn't have done this;

I was trying to pull the code from 95 Integra, I had the two wires on the blue connector beneath the glove box jumped via paperclip, but the light wouldn't come on with the ignition on. In my stupid curiosity I pushed the key further half forgetting I shouldn't have done that. The car started fine, which made me forget the paperclip was still on.
Now just about everything electrical works fine, like windows, lights etc, but the car is struck in Park (its automatic and the gear button won't move with the brake pressed). Also while starting, when you turn the key one step, the engine light, SRS an oil light etc don't light up. Only the battery light comes on and it starts fine. Neither does the ABS come on after starting which was the original problem.
Kinda freaked me out, its dark right now, so I though of posting here. I intend to check all fuses in the morning. But can anyone help cure this?
With my incompetence shown in full, I intend to just take it to someone if I can fix what I just created. Thanks.

i don't think you fried your ecu, but you did screw up electrical components

if you take it somewhere, be prepared to pay alot of money, as electrical is the worst and most time consuming system to diagnose

Try disconnecting your battery and reconnecting it. And also try unplugging your ecu and plugging it back in. That may solve your issue.

Basically what im getting at is telling you to reset your ecu.
