First if brake lights arent working then the shiftlock wont work. Works off of same circuit. I would check fuses for brake lights and also horn. Not exactly sure on the 92's but good chance theres fuse's inside car and also under hood.

    Sounds like you might have gotten alot of water into the fuse/relay box. not possitive of the location but know its under hood in a black plastic like box. If youve got extensive water in that box it could cause lots of problems.

Have electrical issues on a 2004 mazda 3.

I would check every single fuse in the car. Blown fuses can cause weird issues like this. While the initial issue with the mechanic does sound like an alarm problem....the rest does not unless the shop that installed it really butchered the job.

2001 4Runner. Car security went bust first, then the horn stopped working, then the hazard lights. Now, the brakes as well. Any help please?

All except the brakes sound like fuses failing, or wires breaking. A quick check of the fuse box should remedy those.

What do you mean by "the brakes"?

does the pedal go to the floor without stopping the truck?
do the brake lights not come on?
is the brake indicator on the dash on?

need a little more to go on

Sebring to A Neighborhood Mechanic Due to a ABS light n I took my 2000 Chrysler Sebring to A Neighborhood Mechanic Due to a ABS light n brake light on my dashboard n he told me it was the REAR ABS...

I'm sorry to say you need trained help or a good DIY neighbour to get to the bottom of this.; The ABS sensors on the rear brakes will not lead to air in the brakes or grinding of the brakes. It sounds like you have an ABS pump fault in the main unit. This can cause the brakes to hang up after releasing the pedal. The rear wheel ABS sensors may only need their mounting positions cleaned up and their location to the brake reset, this can be as little as 1-2mm. I'm sorry for your financial situation but you are going to need help and my advice is don't drive the car until you have it fixed. Your life or someone else's is in your hands.

I have a 2006 Mazda 6. It got stuck in park and the brake lights and horn went out.

The problem is with the brake lights, there is a solenoid which prevents you taking the vehicle out of park unless you have your foot on the brake, the solenoid is wired into the brake light circuit. Bridge the two wires to the switch and see if the brake lights come on, that eliminates the switch, as the horn has stopped working as well the chances are it is a fuse. To test a fuse, remove it from the box and use a multi meter set on resistance and check for continuity, if they are all ok, you are looking for a wiring fault! You could try using a live fused fly lead from the battery direct to the brake light switch to put the brake lights on, and see if the vehicle will come out of park. Then it's just a matter of finding the wiring break? Try all connectors. Good Luck

Drove through a puddle,power steering out and temp gauge on high, battery light on

I've seen it happen many times on the older Caravans, if you hit a really deep puddle, the splash can knock the accessory drive belt off of its pulleys. You can just gently pry the belt back on, consult a service manual for detailed installation directions.

As for the horn, inspect the fuse and relay and most common it would be a bad ground wire or worst a bad horn due to corrosion. Horn will be located in the drivers side fender.
