The Stick shift in my Automatic '91 Toyota Tercel moves freely (with no resistance) but does not engage the transmission. I'm thinking that maybe there is a broken cable or linkage going from the shifter to the transmission.
The engine runs fine but am unable to get the car out of neutral.
The
shifter needs to be inspected. The shifter assembly is got misaligned, it has
to be open and realign.
There
are many other possibilities. But if it was working right up till now and
suddenly this occurred then its shifter
assembly alignment issue.
Also
i suggest you to refer these gear shift issues, which are mostly noticed. These
are direct links with appropriate solutions to
the specific problems of gear ****.

Thank you, but the tercel is an automatic and has no clutch pedal.
Have somebody in the car apply the brakes and shift it while you look. You should be able to see if the linkage is moving the arm or not.
