I have a 1996 Saab 9000 CS lpt automatic. I have been unable to start it for the last couple of days. It will turn over and fire for a second and then stop. At the same time that this "starting" problem showed up it also became impossible to take the gearshift out of park. According to the owners manual "If the battery becomes discharged, it may not be possible to move the selector lever out of the park position, even if the ignition os ON" I installed a new battery and have the same problems. (In the past, this car has always started perfectly) Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Kirk R.
