Hi and welcome to FixYa!

Is this a manual or an automatic transmission? If it's a manual transmission, turn off the engine and put it in neutral.then start the car again and observe if it will stuck. If it does then the problem will surely be on the clutch itself. You will need to replace the clutch lining, pressure plate and release bearing to resolve the issue.

If it's an automatic transmission. I strongly suggest that you turn off the car, remove the positive battery connector and let it sit for at least 5mins. then reconnect it. This will reset the car's computer and can get your transmission back to it's normal operation.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

I have a G30 chevy van, out of the blue it decided not to shift out of 1st gear, trans fluid is clean and full, what could be the problem ?

There could be a number of possible reasons why your G30 Chevy van is not shifting out of 1st gear. Some potential causes could include:
  1. Faulty shift solenoids: The shift solenoids are responsible for controlling the flow of transmission fluid through the valve body, which in turn affects the shifting of gears. If the solenoids are not functioning properly, it can cause the transmission to get stuck in 1st gear.
  2. Low transmission fluid pressure: If the fluid pressure in the transmission is too low, it can prevent the gears from shifting properly.
  3. Faulty transmission control module: The transmission control module (TCM) is responsible for controlling the shifting of gears in an automatic transmission. If the TCM is faulty or has malfunctioned, it can cause the transmission to get stuck in 1st gear.
  4. Internal transmission issues: There could be internal issues within the transmission itself that are preventing it from shifting out of 1st gear. This could include worn gears or clutches, or other mechanical issues.
It is recommended to take your van to a qualified mechanic or transmission specialist to diagnose the issue and perform any necessary repairs.

My h100 hyundai bakkie is stuck in reverse gear how do I get it out

There are a few steps you can try to get your Hyundai H100 out of reverse gear:
  1. Shift the transmission into neutral: Try shifting the transmission into neutral by moving the gearshift lever to the neutral position. If the lever is stuck or difficult to move, you may need to apply more force or use a tool to lever it out of place.
  2. Check the linkage: The linkage between the gearshift lever and the transmission can sometimes become disconnected or damaged, causing the transmission to get stuck in one gear. If the linkage is the problem, you may need to have it repaired or replaced.
  3. Check the transmission: If the transmission is the problem, you may need to have it serviced or replaced. This is a more serious issue and should be addressed by a mechanic.
  4. Check the brake system: If the brake system is not functioning properly, it may be preventing the transmission from coming out of reverse gear. Check the brake fluid level and inspect the brake system for any leaks or other issues.
If you are unable to get your Hyundai H100 out of reverse gear using these steps, it is recommended to have it inspected by a mechanic. They will be able to diagnose the problem and recommend the appropriate repairs.

What will make my 05 Dodge Magnum shift the first to second then go into third and it hit reverse

There could be several reasons why your 2005 Dodge Magnum is experiencing problems with shifting from second to third gear and then suddenly hitting reverse, including:
  1. Transmission Fluid Level: Low transmission fluid level can cause erratic shifting, slipping, or stalling in your vehicle. Make sure to check your transmission fluid level and add if necessary.
  2. Shift Solenoid: A faulty shift solenoid can cause problems with shifting in your transmission. The solenoids control the flow of transmission fluid through the valve body, which controls the shifting of gears. If the shift solenoid is failing or has failed, it can cause the transmission to slip, shift erratically, or get stuck in a gear.
  3. Transmission Pump: The transmission pump is responsible for pumping transmission fluid through the transmission and to the torque converter. If the pump is failing, it may not be able to pump fluid properly, leading to problems with shifting and slippage.
  4. Valve Body: The valve body controls the flow of transmission fluid through the transmission and directs the shifting of gears. If the valve body is failing, it can cause the transmission to shift erratically or get stuck in a gear.
  5. Transmission Control Module (TCM): The TCM is responsible for controlling the transmission's shifting and overall performance. If the TCM is failing, it can cause the transmission to shift erratically or get stuck in a gear.
It's best to have a qualified mechanic diagnose and repair the issue as they will have the necessary tools and expertise to properly diagnose and fix the issue.

Shifter is in neutral. Why is manual transmission stuck in 3rd gear?

Internal transmission breakage has stuck the thing in 3rd gear. Stalls when putting in other gears because transmission is then being put into 2 gears at once. Better look into getting another transmission of having the current unit overhauled and repaired.

Transmission not shifting stuck in drive could it be broken cable ?

Hi.

If the transmission is stuck in first gear then it is in limp mode. That means that a transmission problem has been detected. If it is stuck in a different gear, then the transmission fault is directly causing the gear getting stuck. The first action would be doing a full code scanning at the car dealer.

Refill the transmission fluid. Check the shifter linkage cable even if I do not think there is a problem in there. Check the throttle position sensor and the speed sensor. The first in located on top of throttle body, the second is in the transmission. Check wiring from Transmission control module to the solenoid pack mounted in the transmission. Access valve body and check solenoids in transmission. Before doing anything else, have a code scanning done and see if the result is pointing at the problem.

See this short article about the problem.

Regards.

Ginko.
