Can't change gear and very bad smell on 1988 mitsubishi mirage

is the check engine light on ! its possible that the convertor is plugged up. if it is plugged the engine will be very sluggish. A converter that is damaged can cause the engine to not function properly. For example, the engine struggles when going up inclines, it hesitates when you try to accelerate or you experience a noticeable drop in fuel economy. If a tank of gas is not taking you as far as it used to, then it may be time to have the catalytic converter looked at. does it smell like rotten eggs. if so the convertor needs attention. Diagnose any and all diagnostic trouble codes before replacing a catalytic converter to preserve and enhance its performance and effectiveness.

Not to scare you, but having your airbag light on is usually a computer problem, and there have been cases of the airbag deploying for no good cause. I don't think you need a computer, but someone will have to hook up to your vehicle with a computer, and scan it. Also do a carfax check on that vin number. If the seat belt is locked, and the airbag (SRS) light is on, it sounds like the vehicle has been in an accident. I hope all goes well, and by all means, if any new info comes up, I would like to hear. Thanks.
Car heating is broke
the heater switch on the dash activates a valve allowing hot water into the heat exchanger under the dash. I think the valve is not opening so the heat exchanger stays cold. The linkage could be faulty or the switch could be faulty.
General wire
It could be a melted light switch due to poor contact causing high resistance and heat at the connector.
A melted plug and terminals would require replacement of the switch and the "Pigtail" plug with new wires that need to be soldered in.

'97 Mitsubishi mirage steering wheel

Mirage CE Australian model- 4G15
Here in the states you can have AutoZone get you the trouble codes for the problem for free. I do not know if that is the case in Australia. If not then you need a small scanner to get the codes . they are not too pricey here. I hope they are not like that there either.
