Codes and shiftlock 900

Good Day
I have a 97 960 (6304) with 80,000miles on it. Over the past week or so, I have had to use the shift release button to get it out of park. I am having to press the release button harder and harder as days go by.
Today, on the way to work, I got a check engine light and an ABS light come on while driving. The SR light also comes on for longer than normal, but eventually turns off.
Are these symptoms related? If so, what should I be looking at for solution? If not, what are the individual solutions?
The car is not driven very much and is usually parked for days or weeks between use.
I see that there is only an OBD port on this car. I am used to the self diagnotic flashing light OBD that was on my earlier 960, 740 and 240s. Is there a particular reader I will have to buy, or will any OBD II reader suffice? Any help of reading the codes that I might get with a reader?
TIA
JD
