Red light next to gear lever staying on is a immobiliser/security problem.
Have you a spare key you could try?

Car might not be recognising the chip in the key

Welcome to the forum Homer,

I see you skipped the New Member Area - Intro a MUST section and cut directly to the chase.

+1 to Tanis8472 suggestion that your immobiliser is still activated when the red light is on.
