Car problems

[Dave33]

04 Sentra 185,000 miles base model. Last week the car would not shift out of park so using this sight I was able to by-pass the shift lock but it is not fixed yet. Today I was almost at the end of a three hour trip and my speakers quit working. The radio turns on and functions as normal just no sound from any speakers. I do not know if these problems can be related or really where to start looking for the problem.

Thanks
David

as far as shifting, some possible causes are the ignition switch, wiring or even the transmission itself...

doubtful they are related but you never know, i would assume the radio problem is directly related to wiring or possibly something simple as a fuse. i've had several wiring issues with my 02 ser, to name a few- headlights, rear speakers, horn, negative battery cable, and turn signals... di-electric grease is a must with my car, not to mention pretty cheap for how effective it is.
