Went to my vehicle today (2002 acura rsx) and the power locks would not work, the emergency break light is on even though the emergency brake is off, and the air is blowing hot. I was reading some blogs online in which other people had all three problems occur to their rsx as well but they did not say how they fixed the problem. I check the air and lock fuses under the hood and they are fine. Do you know what the problem is and how I can fix it? Thanks!

I’ve got a 02 dodge intrepid witha stripped spark plug tube, I know it has to be tapped and an insert put in but I bought a tap from the local auto store and it is too short. There is no room to get a socket over the tap when down the tube. Does dodge make a special tap for this, longer? If so where can I purchase it?

We recently had a problem with our truck not starting.  We replaced the battery, battery cable, iginition switch, starter, and the ignition key switch.  With all of that it now starts.  Our problem now is, it will not shift.  It will shift in accessory, but that’s it.  What happened?

I have a 2000 BMW 323i with a standard engine. When the engine is running, the stick shift will not completely go into any gear or reverse. When the engine is not running it will go into every gear and reverse. I can put it into reverse or first gear with the engine off, start the car and drive it that way but I cannot go into second with the engine running. The just started last night.

Installing new Sunpro Supertach II in a ’89 Chevy Suburban w/ a 350 and factory non-HEI distributor.  Cannot find info on their website on which of the 4 coil wires to connect the green tach wire.  I’m guessing its either of the 2 white (-) wires.  Thanks for any assistance.
