Could have something to do with the shifter not going all the way in to park. The key may be excessively worn, the pin that locks the steering wheel may be hung up, the lock and tumbler may be bad....

How do you replace a headlamp on a 1992 Corvette i can't get the headlight doors to stop in the halfway position?

to replce the sealed beam headlamps on a c4 corvette you must turn the headlights to the second on position and while they are still turning you must quickly return the switch to the halfway position (side markers only position) and this will freeze the headlights in a position where thay can be accessed. although this is inconvenient it is the only way to do it. (it may take multiple tries to get it into best position but now that you know the technique it shouldn't be hard. once you have the assembly in the halfway position the rest iis very simple. remove the 4 screws that hold the outer cover to the assembly and place to side. once this is done only 4 screws remain to remove to complete. remove the 4 screws from the chrome trim ring and the headlight will slide out. after removing ring and unplugging bulb, reinstallation of your new 6054 headlight is simply the reverse. best of luck felllow corvette owner:) -Coty- owner of : 84 z51 corvette 96 Lt4 corvette

The rear wiper motor for your 1997 Jeep Wrangler Hardtop has three wires When you connect only two to a switch you are able to operate the wiper Why are there three wires?

The three wires are the ground wire, the hot wire that runs through the switch and is energized only when the switch is in the on position and the third wire which is energized anytime the ignition switch is on. This circuit allows the wiper arm to go to the "park" position when you turn the wiper switch off. If you turn the ignition switch off while the wiper is in operation it will stop immediately and not continue to the "park" position. When the ignition switch is turned on again, the wiper will return to "park".

Reset clio immobilizer?

Ensure the battery is charged. Unlock car on the key fob. Turn key in ignition to position 3 (ignition fully on but not at start) for 30s to 1 min. Return to fully off for 30s. Back to position 3 for 30s, to off for 30s. Then turn key straight to start position, engine should now catch on the started. This should reset the imobiliser. Needed after the car is jumped from another car if the battery has run flat because its french and so is afraid of work. Hope it works for you Matt
