Speeds are not shown on the dashboard

Mitsubishi Eclipse 2006  111111 miles
I turned my car off when I arrived home and, some hours later, when starting the engine again, it did not indicate P, N nor D. The Check engine and airbag lights turned on and, when driving it, gears could not be made. What can be wrong? Is it the speed or the gear sensor? Could you please help me?

Check the catalytic converter. Check mfi relay. Check o2sensprs Check fuel and air filters. And also. Linkage cable on transmission which could be tightened to adjust shift time

So I've dealt w/this and still do to this day... Try turning the wheel as far as you can to the left w/the key turned to the on position DO NOT TURN IT OVER UNTIL YOU HAVE THE WHEEL TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT FIRST... then turn the key back off while keeping the wheel to the left then turn it all the way over...
If it doesn't turn over then, try turning the wheel as hard and fast as you can in both directions with the key in the on position, then after a few times in both directions as quick as possible try to turn it over...
I know it sounds crazy but it works for mine EVERYTIME

Loss of power.

Mitsubishi Eclipse 2003 Hatchback, manual, 3.0  137300 miles
I'm having a loss of power issue. I have a chk engine light on came back as cam and crank sensor but mechanic fixed them but cldnt clear the code. Autozone cleared it but came back on. Replaced 02 sensor I know valve cover gasket is bad. Oil everywhere even in the plugs. Cld that be the issue? Its sluggish and no power once warmed up. On highway takes forever to get to 75. Runs great cold but once warmed up crappy.

Transmissions

Mitsubishi Eclipse 2004 Gs 2.4 automatic hatchback  150000 miles
Transmission slips in and out of gear in reverse or drive only when I first start it. I can crank it up put it in reverse without touching the gas and it will push me for a second and stop push for a second and stop, does the same thing in drive too well after it does it about 20 times it will stay in gear and I’ll be able to drive it anywhere i want without slipping or jerking or the entire time it’s like when it warms up it’s completely fine. There’s no check engine light on and if I’m on the interstate doing 70 75 with the rpms right at 3000 I can bump the shifter into neutral and let off t… Read complete

Does not start

Mitsubishi Eclipse 2002  75000 miles
When turning the ignition key, I can listen the engine is turning but the car won't start working completely, no matter what I do. The fuel pump is working correctly and it has electrical current, but still the engine won't start. The computer detected a failure in the crankshaft sensor, can it be that the cause of my problem? Thanks.
