You have a 96 intrepid when you turn the key it clicks once and thats it All the lights inside come on and when it started doing that you were able to turn the key back and try again and it would star?

I'd be suspicious of the starter. I don't THINK an intrepid has a separate starter solenoid, if it does, that could be it too.

94 dodge Intrepid brake lights stay on when car not running?

If the brake lights stay on when the car is not running on most vehicles, including the 1994 Dodge Intrepid, there is probably a short somewhere in the wiring to the brake lights. The first place to investigate this problem would be the wires along the firewall that control the brake lights. Also, check the brake light switch above the brake pedal.
