Best Answer

There are two possibilities. 1. There are three bolts above the gas pedal on the steering column that hold the shifter lever in place. Those bolts may have come loose as it did on my 1993. You will notice slop in the shifter if this is the case. Tighten up those bolts. It is not fun to get to. 2. Your shifter cable that is connected to the transmission underneath the car may need to be adjusted. This is not that hard to do, but consult your manual on that. You will need someone sitting in the car to shift the car into its different modes and back to park while you observe the shifter lever at the transmission. Make sure you block the tires in the front and back first. Safety First.....

I can't place my 2001 Intrigue in Park even though the gear shift lever indicates that the car is in Park but the car is actually in the reverse gear What would cause that?

It is likely that the shifter linkage is out of adjustment. This is not a good project for a beginning mechanic, as the alignment can change when hitting a bump or making a sudden stop. Find a good transmission shop or mechanic and have them look at it.

Why is the image in the microscope reversed?

It is all about the lenses in the microscope. The fewer lenses, the less does it cost to produce. Every focal lens used will reverse the image. One focal lens will reverse. a second one will make it right again. a third one will reverse yet again. Every step of a lens might distort the immage though, depending solely on the quality of it. Simple is often good enough, and a reversed immage does not really mean that much. Tricky to align and find your samples but doable :-) It depends on the microscope and how many focal lenses that are actually at play. There are microscopes available that do not reverse the image though.
