Either a blown globe or the plug may have come off the switch in the console.

Does economy/power mode still engage? I had the same thing in my EL. Guessed it was a buggered globe, didn't bother with changing it because economy mode still worked.

If it doesn't feel like it's working at all (and you'll know by the shift points), then as mentioned it might be the switch.
