Struggling to depress pistons on rear brakes. Hoave used G-clamp, Made a special tool with nut and bolt. Still struggling.

The pistons in the caliper should retract without much effort. A "C" clamp is usually all you need to do it. I suspect you have a seized caliper or possibly a kinked or crushed brake line (preventing the brake fluid from returning to the master cylinder when the piston is depressed) feeding that caliper - but isn't very likely.

Car advice

If your car has automatic gears , and your problem as if it is going uphill then you obviously have a faulty automatic transmission box , this can be fixed by a competent mechanic but would be better to take it to an auto-mechanic, for a replacement gearbox or it may just be a missaligned gear selector in the gearbox, it will be expensive whatever the problem is ........unless the auto-mechanic is your best buddy..............................Sorry

I have GEN-2 if i press the brake pedal all ligths on what is the posible problem?

It can only be a problem caused by a shortage, the wire activated by the brake as you apply the brakes is shorting ( touching) the other wires in the wiring loom, hopefully not too far down , unless you are competent and confident with a cars electrical circuit I would seriously suggest you get an auto electrician. B4 that Have a look and follow the brake pedal wire ( situated maybe on the floor of the car and activated as the brake pedal is pressed or on the pedal itself, )look for anywhere tge wire is bare ( without insulation ) then rectify and all should be OK , If you cannot see an easy fix get an auto electrician, get a call out , not a auto shop /garage he will be cheaper.

Inertia switch

Inertia switch is only relevant when you have a collision and the engien does not start. Fuel pump may not run and coils no spark. If not, same thing could also happen if the immobilizer is not disabled or the key FOB gets damaged. The ignition key has an RFID chip in it and if you drop your key or remove this chip, the car will not recognize the key and wont start. You need to use your spare key from then on.
