I have a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 with a manual transmission. The backup light does not come on when I engage the transmission into reverse. Does anyone know how to fix it?
It's a matter of replacing the reverse position swith in the transmission. This switch tells the computer wheter it's in neutral, or reverse and when in reverse it triggers the reverse lights.
Where is the reverse lights switch on 2002?
You didn't state weather it was an Automatic or Manual transmission. Well any way they are both on the transmission. Manual transmission has a separate switch for the backup lights the automatic is built into the neutral safety switch on the transmission. Automatic switch is about $50.00. Manual switch is about $10.00. Hope you have a manual it is a lot cheaper.
What is wrong with your transmission if you can't go in reverse?
It truly depends on the trans - auto or manual? Chev or Dodge? However, if you can go forward but reverse is gone, you have broken parts in the transmission. Really common on some GM's. Dan the tranny man
If the transmission goes in reverse but not forward can it be fixed?
It can always be fixed. What that consists of.. it would help to know your transmission a little better, i.e., whether it's a manual or automatic, as well as if it goes into neutral (and park, if applicable). Diagnosing from a distance, unfortunately, prohibits a tech from being able to see the problem and diagnose it firsthand.
Why would the back wheels lock up on a manual transmission 86 camaro?
Answer why would the back wheels lock upTwo possible reasons: 1. The (older) manual transmission is stuck between gears. This happened to me once on a hill. With the car wanting to go downhill in reverse there was torque on the transmission and this held the manual transmission in that messed-up position. I could not even put my car in to neutral to coast out of the street. The tow truck operator that picked me up said that if I had had someone push the car slightly forward I could have gotten the tranmission into neutral.2. The back (drum) brakes were very recently rebuild and were assembled in reverse; they tightened up every time the brakes were used until they locked.
What is wrong when a car put from park to drive jerks?
That might be the sign of a transmission problem. My car used to jerk when I put it in reverse. But if you wait a couple seconds until it is completely in gear, I bet it won't jerk. Having it checked out with a mechanic maybe in your next oil change might be a good idea. Tip for checking your transmission: When you are driving 60mph, put your car in neutral - if your car rolls smoothly in neutral, there is no problem. If it shakes or does something weird, you wanna have it checked out. Reminder: Putting the car from FORWARD gear (not reverse) to Neutral while in motion in either automatic or manual gearbox will not damage the transmission.
When selecting the appropriate gear for intended direction of travel automatic transmission equipped vehicles should be placed in while manual transmission equipped vehicles should be placed in?
For automatic transmission vehicles, the appropriate gear should be selected based on the intended direction of travel, typically using "Drive" for forward movement and "Reverse" for backward movement. In contrast, manual transmission vehicles should be placed in the appropriate gear corresponding to the direction of travel, such as first gear for starting forward motion and reverse gear for moving backward. Always ensure the vehicle is at a complete stop before shifting between forward and reverse in both types of transmissions.
Where is the neutral safety switch in a 1999 Subaru Legacy?
The neutral switch on a manual transmission is on the top rear of the transmission housing.
No reverse gear on manual transmission s-10?
An s-10 transmission with no reverse most likely has an internal problem. The shifter fork or a gear issue can cause no transmission reverse.
Why doesn't the reverse work on a festiva 5 speed manual transmission?
In a Festiva 5-speed manual transmission, the reverse gear is designed differently than forward gears. Typically, reverse uses a separate gearset that engages in a different manner, often requiring a shift lever to be pulled or pushed in a specific way to prevent accidental engagement. If the reverse gear is not functioning, it could be due to worn linkage, damaged gears, or issues within the transmission itself, preventing it from engaging properly. Additionally, some manual transmissions incorporate a lockout mechanism to avoid shifting into reverse at inappropriate speeds.
