This transmission shifted smooth and strong through all gears until today when it stopped all of ... Any idea on where we should start tackling this issue? .... Also, make sure that the pressure tester is not leaking or you will run the tranny dry(use ...

Gear shifter goes from park to drive with no effect. Won't ...

not enough trans fluid...... if it slips after a trans flush reuse the old fluid its got the old clutch dust in it and the clutches will grab better....

im assuming this is an automatic transmission? it sounds like the cable or the linkage to the transmission gave out. your gonna have to get under the hood or under the car to see. it may be a easy fix-good luck!

Change the trans solenoid pack inside the transmission pan

One part--- contains 3 pressure solenoids & all 4 shift solenoids

that is your ttc solenoid . it is your torque converter lock up solenoid. it is located in the transmission ,and to get the it you have re move the side pan on the transmission on the drivers side

For car not changing gears and not shifting out of park mode ,it can be shifter assembly issue, or it can also be transmission issue. Get the shifter assembly inspected with ignition OFF.

These will help.

Thanks.

It sounds to me like the transmission is starting to fail. As the clutches inside the transmission wear the clutch pack gains additional clearance. Your pressures in the transmission will be higher with cold oil so it has a tendency to build a bit of extra pressure, but it's also slower in flowing through the transmission. This results in a harder hitting first gear. As the transmission warms up, it will reduce the viscosity of the oil and work fine. Cold weather kills automatic transmissions. Let it warm up before driving it or it won't last long. It will require an overhaul soon.

Assuming the pickup is an automatic, check the transmission fluid. The #1 cause for transmission slippage is lack of Automatic Transmission Fluid.

If the pickup is a standard shift, the pin that connects the shift to the transmission has likely broken. You would still be able to shift from the inside but the gears won't engage. A bad clutch is also a possibility but you would have noticed a burning smell prior to the clutch giving out.

Do the old additive method before you give up....................add one and a half cans of `Sea Foam TRANSMISSION TREATMENT' to it and follow directions. Sometimes that can of stuff is AMAZING! don-ohio

there inside the tranny you have to remove the pan to see them but thats not going to be your problem go buy a can of TRANSX first!! and try that if that helps then you need to plan on rebuilding your tranny or replacing it
