Couldn't be this since without the brake you can't take it out of park. I'm really interested to find out what's causing this.

im gonna go check and see if my steering wheel is ever locking.. could be something around that.

Heres a diagnostic video. Steering wheel locks, car notices the brake is being pressed down. Strangest thing is probably the beeping when i turn it off.

Does your dome light turn on ?
Beeping is normal that's because the door is open.

brb ill find out, also i tried pulling the ecu fuse for a few minutes and putting it back in, that didnt help anything.. i have some time tonight, is it worth going through and checking all the fuses?

im_topher · 07-18-2015, 10:28 PM

No dome light at any point. Seems quite strange. And no stereo power.. any ideas on what might cause that?

It's one fuse. I know exactly which one it is because I've replaced it on mine. Let me go out to my car and get you a picture. Does the car have a radar or anything ?

On the edge of my seat over here. I SO want this to work out.

im_topher · 07-18-2015, 11:28 PM

OK, i pulled that fuse out and it was blown. I grabbed the 20 in the spare section, that one was blown too. I pulled the other 20 from here:

And put it in there, the second i seated it i heard a little pop, and i checked it, and it was dead.

I looked at the positive connection to the battery and the left side looks a little fucked, are those fuses in there? And is that one on the left/bottom blown?

Also that fuse is for the dome light, do you think fixing the dome light is going to help my problem?

ZOMFGAARON · 07-19-2015, 12:28 AM

You have a bad ground somewhere. I'd have to have the car here to help out anymore sorry. Try changing that pswd jdm bolt to a standard bolt. I can take pictures of that too if needed. Remove your dome light and check the wires.

Not a bad ground, a short circuit to ground.

Yeah I bet it's from an improper install of a radar detector or a cord coming loose during the crash. Maybe even the previous owner ripping shit out without caring. Unplug your battery then start searching for the short so you don't blow a bunch of fuses. Replace the ones blown and check all the other ones. Normally when you blow that specific fuse under the hood you'll blow these 2 as well. Well I did. Check these wires to start. There's also a connection behind the headliner where the arrow points check those.
