Assuming the car is not running and you are trying to start it, sometimes the steering wheel is locked from the wheel thrying to turn back on itself and this won't allow the key to turn.

short answer: bar room. remove both ends, it's out. my guess, is the console end has you , wondering>? remove it. and worry no more. long tech answer (see alldata.com or FSM) the is covered in the FSM. and varies by model and sub model as they can have different consoles and can vary by country. some cars the car seats need to come out. to get to console screws. but not this car. the USA spec.car has clips (pull em) and screws. top down. the beverage holder has screws, the other parts pull up and clips pop out, the center console box has a rug and clips under there. we just pull them off, by using a plastic pry lever. here is a quote. Remove the center console as follows.

• If equipped with manual transaxle, remove the shifter knob
• Detach the center console retaining clips and pull the assembly upward
• If equipped with heated seats, detach the heat switch connectors
• Pry up on the right side of the console pocket, detach the clips and remove the pocket
• Remove the screws, detach the clips and disconnect the front power accessory connector
• Open the console lid and remove the console mat
• If equipped, disconnect the rear accessory power socket electrical connector
• Remove the console retaining screws and remove the console from the vehicle.

usually the cable goes into a boxed in area, below the shifter with seals to keep exhaust out or car. so below the shiter on and automatic car, the cable attaches to the bottom of the shifting lever. a clip hold is in place the cable. if car is M/T (stick) then say so. i posted above due to 90% being A/T now my question, why not say reason for this. symptoms. this cable almost never fails.

Your only option my friend is to replace the ECU and coat the connections to it with dielectric grease to prevent them from corroding.

this is a very confusing post a SAAB HONDA? abs is a complex system, it.s not , see code x , so replace part z. not in the least. Causes: bad brakes, bad or dirty wheel sensors. or damaged by road junk hitting them, you have 2 choices (besides wild guessing) take it to any ASE (USA) certified mechanic. or DIY ??? read the manual. read the FSM, read the factory service manual, it covers all this. if wanting a preview of this, go to alldata.com and read ABS. if the brakes are bad, the ABS can and will get confused. it sees out of control brakes,and has not the least idea at all WHY>? its not intelligent at all, it only knows how to detect bad actions. and throw silly codes. that is it. only human can conduct other test to find the true cause. the FSM covers this, read it. or take it in. or do a full brake service, and full flush and bleed, and pray it works. do not open or bleed the system until you read the sections in the FSM. on the CORRECT WAY! DO NOT.

First thing you need to do is male sure your battery connections are good. I'd they. Are then move on to having the battery check. These cars won't come out of park with a dead or low battery. Hope this helps.

Look inside the fuse box, If i remember it should be under the front hood....along side the drivers side wheel well by the fender.

replace the pulley !!
