Reads as if the Mechatronics failed or fused, which they will eventually do if the transmission fluid and microfilter are not changed every 3 years. The symptom is complete loss of drive. Obviously worth checking if replacing the fuse will get you going again, but you would have to treat that as purely temporary. A member of www.fedauto.com may be able to help.
