I need more info to even try this one. Anyone else???

If you're referring to a floor or steering wheel column console it works the same way. The orange light or needle you see is attached to the instraument that changes the transmission gears in some form or another so it's not actually "receiving a signal" just following the lever or piece of metal that moves in order to communicate with the driveshaft and the P, R, N, D, 3, and 2 are positioned/displayed in a way that will follow where correct positioning would exist.

The lighted readout at night only causes such to light because it has LED glow ups installed that are switched on automatically upon turning on your headlights.

How do you replace the light on the gear shift panel of a 1999 Honda Accord automatic transmission?

AnswerYou have to remove the gear shift plate, just pry carefully, (it's plastic) with a screwdriver. Remove the screws holding the shifter. Take the drive indicator out and the bulb is on the driver side. It's a tiny bulb. The bulb comes out by turning it to the left.Alternatively, you do not have to remove the gear shifter. Take a look at the following picture tutorial: http://automotive.trevorated.com

Can you convert an Acura Integra manual transmission to an automatic?

Anything is possible if you have enough money. Call a couple of local garages for estimates. I imagine you could...but why would you want to....your better of trading someone with an automatic...and plus it is a very spendy procedure"shift locks, sensors, ect..." Yes this is very possible and there are more people that have done it than you think. You will however have to buy a new tranny mount, new pedals from the manual, shift linkage, shifter, shifter boot, shifter cover panel, hydrolic lines, master and slave cylinders and probably alot more parts that i am leaving out but you could do it for under a grand if you found good deals on used parts.

What is when a Kia Rio 2001 the transmission is hold in park and the instrument panel is not indicate nothing and it's happen in the same time?

More than likely the shifter is bad. On the right front of the shifter is a small plastic cover. About the size of a pea. Pull this cover up and inset a small flathead screwdriver in. Push it down and then you should ne able to get it out of park. You will need to do this every time until you get the shifter fixed.
