If the starter is not turning the engine, then you need a jump. The lights will work with less than 11V, the starter will not. Of course, if the car is not in neutral or park, the starter key will not turn to start.

As for the flashing up shift arrow, that is a tranny problem usually associated with the PNP switch. For a temporary fix, with the car off and your foot on the brake, row the shift lever from R to L about 20-30 times. That usually clears it so the tranny is not in limp home mode (3rd gear).
