penetrating fluid works wonders for thingamagigs.. be very careful and make sure the entire plug is there.. would be bad to have a bouncing electrode in your combustion chamber.

You have to hold one of the buttons on the dash and cycle the key. Do a quick search I cant remember the exact procedure but no tools are needed.

Thanks 808. It was the trip button. Need to ask if you have a lid to the lower console compartment to sell, I broke mine when I lock my keys in the trunk. Thanks.
