There are many reasons why a transmission may not engage. Since the question is not more specific, here are a couple possibilities: If it's an automatic transmission, and you are unable to move the shifter, the problem could be caused by the neutral lockout switch or the release relay. If the shifter can move into position but the transmission won't engage, it could be, 1)low fluid, 2) the hydraulic pump, 3) the internal valve body, 4) internal seals, 5) the clutch pack. If it's a stick shift and you aren't able to shift into gear with the engine running but it shifts when the engine is off, the clutch isn't disengaging. If it goes into gear but nothing happens when you let out the clutch, the clutch is worn out. There are other possibilities, but that's an overview of some of the possibilities.
