What is wrong when the clutch won't go into gear?

A clutch does not go into gear. A clutch engages, Normally if a clutch fails to engage it is because it is worn. with a worn out clutch you are able to start the car in gear without your foot on the clutch and the car wont move. Normally before this happens you will notice what is known as a slipping clutch. A slipping clutch means that the engine is turning faster than it should to keep the car moving while in gear. once this starts to happen it does not take long for the whole show to come to a stand still.

Why wont your car shift into gear when the car is on?

You probably have clutch issues. With the engine, and the E brake off, puthe car in 1st gear. Have some one rock it, or try to push it. While they are doing this, push the clutch to the floor. Doing this should istantly free the car up, to roll. If not, try adjusting the clutch. This is all assuming that the car will go into gear, when the motor is off. If not, then you probably have tranny issues to vast to list here.

Either the linkage between the pedal and the throw-out bearing is damaged or the clutch fiber disc is worn and needs replaced. The worn clutch is most likely. Consult a mechanic, this is not a shadetree operation. The clutch allows the spinning crankshaft of the engine to be "interrupted" before it get to the transmission. Your engine and transmission are both turning when the car is running and in neutral, the clutch basically stops the the transmission from receiving power and this allows you to choose a gear, letting out the clutch allows power back to the trans, and this allows the power to get to the wheels through the chosen gear.
