You may have been facing downhill and if your tranny is low on fluid, I can see where this might be your problem. Warm up engine and check the tranny fluid level in park with the engine running. An uneven surface is not a good place to find your answer, but if you have absolutely NO tranny fluid on the grid, I'd certainly try adding a pint or so to see if that'd make a difference.

do a draw test......disconnect the battery ground cable and place a test light in between the cable and battery. if there is a draw the light will come on. if this happens then pull all fuses one by one till the light goes out, when the light goes out then that circuit is the culprit. good luck

Anytime a starter clicks instead of turning over, you should suspect your battery is weak. Try to get a jump start and take the car to an auto parts store. Most of them will do bettery and alternator checks for no charge.

There is a switch mounted on the arm of the brake pedal (under a plastic cover held on with 3 plastic push-pins). There is an electical connection attached to this switch. In my case one of the wires had broken and was not supplying electricity to the switch. By fixing the broken wire it allowed the shifter to properly move and got the brake lights working again.

if you sqirt a little gas or starting fluid in tthe air intake and it starts for a few seconds then the igjition is probably ok since it was stored so long you could have lots of water int the gas tank or bad gas... you could have a clogged fuel filter or bad fuel pump . you can have a pressure/volume test done on the fuel pump.. that will also test the fuse and fuel filter .. wow only 54k miles ..
SOURCE: Power windows inoperable on left side of my 2002
The only thing that is in common with both of those windows is the Master Control Window Switch. (The switch panel on the driver's door) A failure of this switch could possibly be the problem, but it is not real likely that it would affect both windows, and only intermmitently. The more likely cause would be that the window motors on both doors are sticking. Try slamming the door fairly hard while someone is holding the switch. If the window starts working, replace the motor.
