If the key is stuck in the ignition of a 2004 Chrysler Sebring and the airbag light is on how do you fix it?

Be sure the ignition switch is in the "off" position. Move the steering wheel right & left while removing the key - sometimes the steering wheel lock mechanism engages and needs to be manipulated to allow ignition switch into "off" position. Airbag light is a mystery, our Sebring does this also. I have heard that one cause is a faulty airbag fuse - maybe try replacing it. For future reference, if your brake light comes on (mainly while turning) check you brake fluid level.

Can a locksmith replace a car key?

In today's world the method above is slightly outdated. The real answer is; it truly depends on what car you have. If you have a newer model (2005 or higher) you may need a professional locksmith to program the chip to the new car key. If you have an older model you will need a locksmith to look up your key code to make you a new car key. You can call your automobile dealership but they will charge you 5X the amount than anyone or anywhere else. If you have a push start, that can be tricky. BMW, Mercedes and luxury cars may have proprietary car keys so you will need to check with a professional to get an exact answer.

Kia Spectra radio says HOLD anyone know why?

Hi, When the radio says "HOLD" is when the code have been entered wrong too many times and the EPROM has loked. This is part of the anti-theft mechanism. I called the dealer and was told to leave the radio on displaying the "HOLD" for over 1/2 hour and see if it ask for the code. If not it needs to return to the dealer. Hope this helpd. O. Wagner ================================== As a theft deterrent, anytime the radio looses power (i.e. the battery is disconnected), it requires a 4-digit code to reactivate it. If the code is entered wrong 3 times, the word "HOLD" will appear on the screen. To fix it, wait one hour with the battery connected, the radio turned on, and the ignition key in the ACC position. When the word "CODE" reappears, enter the correct 4-digit security code using the radio preset buttons; From pages 9 and 10 of the "Audio Owner's Manual": For the first digit, press preset 1 a sufficient number of times for the correct number to appear. For the second digit, press preset 2 a sufficient number of times. For digit 3, press preset 3, for digit 4, press preset 4. If the correct code is not displayed, repeat the steps until it is. When the correct code is displayed, press the SEL button once. If the system is still locked, repeat these steps. I had debated including the default security code here, but seeing as the stock radio is not even worth the effort to steal it, it is "1111"
