Trying to understand 2 phrasal verbs with examples

I'm trying to understand the right way to use 2 phrasal verbs. So, I wrote some phrases to understand it. They are:

Figure out:
1. I can't figure out how to this has happened
2. We need to figure out how to this works
3. She figured out who was responsible
4. I finally figured out how to use this phrasal verb

Come up:
1. Come up the stairs
2. I change the car of location (?) but came up a problem came up
3. The schedules are coming up to finish
4. A girl came up to Pedro and he got a little nervous
5. The turtles coming up soon
6. By your fault came up the problem The problem came up because of what you did/ it was your fault the problem came up
7. You need to come go up to her (if you mean that this person needs to approach/talk to her)

------

I don't really know how to correct 2, 3 and 5 because they don't make much sense to me. Here are some examples that might be similar to what I think you intended (but maybe not):

2*: I tried to move the car but a problem came up
3*: The deadlines are coming up (in other words, the deadlines are very close)
5*: The turtles are coming soon
