so i went to check out my uncle's car after it sitting in the garage over the winter, and you got your average dusty car, with flat tires, and a dead battery,
well, i tried to start the car by jumper cables with my dad's truck. and the thing didnt start.
all i heard was a click,
so i tried to move the shifter into neutral and see if i can roll the car out,
and it doesnt budge.

has anyone had this problem?
help a noob out.
thanks.
bash me if you wanna. =/

you sure you don't see a small lever around there? i think it's called the shift-lock override. something like that. Had when my s13 was auto. Someone with an auto s14 confirm on this please.

yeah press the button on the shifter AND STEP ON THE BRAKE and done! most likely you werent stepping on the brake. if you dont press the brake, it wont move. good luck

my car is in the parking lot, i'll come back later...but i'm pretty sure there isnt a specific shift lock override in the s14, other than the brake pedal
