I know that my 1995 XLT has a brake interlock switch, that doesn"t allow my automatic transmission to shift out of park into gear unless the brake pedal is depressed - I don't know if that is what your problem is.
is the transmiton
The brake pedal has to be fully depressed for the stick to engage.
If second is the only gear that does not work, there is an internal failure. The transmission will need repaired or replaced.
sounds like transmission problem it could be the lever but likely that the teeth on the gear for forward is strip and wont engage...take it to mechanic or take the crankcase transmission case off and play with the gear back and forth to see what its supposed to engage and look at the gear replace if needed...trust me its worth it to do it youself and its pretty easy..just takes some time prolly an 1.5hour!!
Whatever the car, it has to do with the clutch. If the clutch does not dis-engage the fly wheel, you will be unable to shift or even get it into gear. Check you clutch, pedal, cable, or hydraulic system.
do you have 1st 2nd and 3rd gear, if one of them dont work your transmiton is gone, that is what im going with. motor does not have anything to do with your gears
My hyundai wont go in gear the stick feels loose and wobbley whats wron ?
you either got air in the hydrolic clutch or the hydrolic clyinder is out .check your fluid level.
Check the trans fluid for water, if you have water you have major problems.
You need to lift the collar on the gear stick to engage reverse gear
when i try to engage 4xhigh from2xh both 4xh and 4xlow flasg green and wont engage,what could be the problem
put tranny fluid in it!
