I have a mazda 6 2004, and the car alarm is absolutely annoying. I would park on the street and when a truck or large vehicle would drive by, it would trigger the alarm because of the vibration. I removed the Horn Relay from the fuse box and that did the trick, but also took out my steering wheel horn. Would I have to go to a mazda dealership?

How do I attach a wire to an automotive fuse? The fuse supplies a constant 12v which I want to send to my car stereo. I ran a wire from the stereo to the fuse panel (to the left of the steering wheel). The fuses have two metal prongs with a wire connecting them and the top of them is enclosed in plastic. Is there a special type of fuse that allows me to attach a wire?

Thanks!

To put it in other words, I would like to help a Quiz Master who is trying to find an answer since some time for a common question that arises on all the youngesters who touch the steering wheel. It is the longest distance driving at a short time that has a recognised record. I am of the opinion Farmula IV records will solve the a part of it but it is incomplete! Can any one of you help me to help my firend please?

Sometimes when I drive on wet roads (especially highways at speeds 70+), my steering wheel has episodes where it is a little harder to steer and it seems like something else has taken control of it. The steering wheel isnt out of my control, just a little more difficult to steer. This more often happens when the car in front of me is quite close and water splashes from their tires directly into my car.

Is this hydroplaning?

I stopped my 1995 Jeep Cherokee today and put the car into park but the key would not come out of the ignition. It is stuck in the on position. (I can tap they key just enough to get the engine to turn off, but cannot get the ignition to turn to off or unlock.)

I can still start up the car and drive it around. If I push on the brake, I can shift in and out of park. I’ve tried wiggling the steering wheel, “firmly turning” the steering wheel, and moving in and out of park. I’ve tried starting it up and driving it around again. I’ve looked (unsuccessfully) for any ignition button under the steering wheel.

But I still cannot get the key out of the ignition!
