You purched a used car 3 months ago and the transmission is going out who do you contact?

Well unfortunately, even if you purchased the vehicle from a dealership, unless there was a specific extended warranty purchased from said dealership, you are most likely going to have to pay for the issue out of pocket. If you did indeed purchase an extended warranty (or the factory warranty still applies) for the vehicle from a used car dealer, you should contact them. In most cases, the work can be performed at any dealer that sells (or sold) your make and model, but will often have a higher deductible than if the work is done at the original point of purchase. If you purchased the vehicle from a private party, then again, unfortunately, It's coming out of your pocket, Caveat Emptor. (May the buyer beware)

How the data transmission occurs through crossover cable connection?
A crossover cable connects two computers without going through a switch. The data transmission happens just like in a switched environment. You still have to have a network client with viable addresses, and they have to be the same format, such as same subnet mask and default gateway.
Why centrifugal pumps wouldn't be used for pressure transmission?
Centrifugal pumps are used to transmit fluid from high suction head to low delivery head.....by converting the kinectic energy into pressure energy which raises the fluid up to the delivery head....... pressure transmission doesn't take place but fluid transmission takes place...
What is a clutch brake on a heavy duty truck transmissions?
A clutch brake is a circular disc with a friction surface that is splined to the input shaft of the transmission between the release bearing and transmission. Its purpose is to slow and/or stop the input shaft from turning to allow initial forward or reverse gear engagement in non-synchronized transmissions. It helps prevent premature wear of the internal transmission parts during those initial shifts. To understand this in more detail, let's consider what is going on when a heavy truck transmission is shifted from neutral to first or reverse. When a truck is in neutral and the clutch pedal is not depressed, the master clutch is engaged. This causes power from the engine to drive the transmission input shaft, resulting in rotation of some shafts and gears in the transmission. However, the gears aren't engaged or meshed in a way that transmits power to the drive shaft. In other words, parts of the transmission are just idling but spinning. When the clutch pedal is depressed, it moves the release or throw-out bearing toward the transmission and away from the flywheel. This unloads the springs in the master clutch, releasing the master clutch and decoupling the flywheel from the transmission output shaft. Without the engine driving the transmission input shaft, the spinning shafts and gears in the transmission start to coast down. However, it would take a long time for these rotating masses to slow down, because they have a lot of mass and the only thing that is slowing them is gear and bearing drag. If everything is properly adjusted, the master clutch is opened or released when the pedal is depressed about half way or so. If there's no clutch-brake, and you then shift into first or reverse, the rotation of gears in the transmission won't all be the same on a non-synchronized transmission, and then the gears can clash or make a "thunk" as gears that are spinning are meshed with gears that are not spinning. Over time, this can wear or even damage the gears. When a clutch-brake is installed, pushing the clutch pedal all the way to the floor pulls the release bearing even further away from the master clutch toward the transmission, which eventually squeezes the clutch-brake disc between the release bearing and the transmission case. Friction between these parts then slows and soon stops the transmission input shaft from rotating. Now, gears can be moved into mesh in the transmission and there might be a bit of noise because the teeth aren't perfectly aligned, but they won't be rotating. If you time everything just right, you'll make the shift from neutral to first or reverse just as the gears are almost stopped, but not quite. A little rotation helps ease the meshing and can almost eliminate noise or "thunk" sounds. The clutch-brake is unusual because it always picks up grease from the release bearing. Modern clutch-brakes are designed to operate with grease, and they even require greasing or oiling before installation. Clutch-brakes fail for two reasons. First, over time, the friction material will wear out. At some point, there will be metal-to-metal contact in the "sandwich" consisting of the bearing, clutch-brake plate, and the transmission cover. This might still slow the gears, but it can cause damage to the bearing or the transmission cover. It's also possible that the release bearing won't be able to move far enough toward the transmission to squeeze the disc, and the clutch-brake won't slow down the transmission shaft because there won't be friction in the "sandwich." If you keep the pedal linkage properly adjusted and periodically grease the release bearing and clutch-brake disc, the disc can last for a long time. However, the most common cause of clutch-brake failure is depressing the clutch pedal all the way to the floor when shifting during a range change--when the truck is moving. When you do this, you are forcing the little clutch-brake to try and stall the engine and stop the truck! Doing that only one time will often destroy the clutch-brake completely. This can also occur if the pedal linkage isn't properly adjusted and the release bearing squeezes the clutch-brake into the transmission case when making a range gear change.
How are step up transformers used in the transmission of electric energy?
Step-up Transformers used in the transmission of electrical energy increase the voltage going over Transmission Lines (over 100,000 Volts). For a given amount of POWER to be Transmitted, the higher the Voltage, the LOWER the CURRENT. This reduces the amount of Power LOST to the Resistance of the Transmission Lines. Power Lost is calculated by the Formula: POWER Lost = I2 x R, where I=Current and R=Resistance So, the lower the Current (I), the lower the transmission line losses. At the end of the Transmission Path the Voltage is "Stepped Down" to a value usable for the Customer, usually (220 volts for Residential use in the USA).
What is the function of a earth wire in transmission line?
The earth conductor is not normally used for communications, but the line conductors frequently are. Often 'communications' has nothing to do with telephone conversations, but more to do with data transmission - usually related to protective systems for the lines themselves. To prevent these communications signals from straying to other parts of the electrical transmission/distribution network, the ends of the conductors used for this purpose are fitted with inductors which offer a high impedance to the high-frequency communications signals, effectively blocking the signals from going further into the network.
How do you calculate your car payment?
There are many online loan calculators that you can use online. You just need to contact your financial institution to see what your APR is going to be and how many months you are going to finance your loan for.

How do you know if your transmission is going out on a manual transmission?
If your transmission is manual, you will have to change gear. If it is automatic, you won't.
What is causing this live in Fargo ND the rocks for the last 6 months here have been changing big time. They are going thru Metamorphosis with our question. What is going on?
The Geological process of metamorphosis takes geological time scales (except thermal contact metamorphosis - contact with lava) - It is not clear what you are asking but it is not metamorphosis.

How can you tell if the transmission on a 1998 Chevy Malibu is going bad?
You can tell if the transmission, in your 1998 Chevy Malibu, is going bad. If there is a whining or clunking noise. The transmission might cause your engine to install when you are stopped with your foot on the brake.
