SOURCE: Code Reader reads Shifter Solenoid Stuck or Off

The Shift solenoids are located in the transmission oil pan. I would recommend replacing both shift solenoids while you're in there. Also replace the filter and pan gasket. The shift solenoids are located towards the rear of the valvebody and will be identical to each other. They are held in place by a retaining clip which is easily removed with a small screwdriver or similar tool. Care must be taken as parts may fly out of the bore when the solenoids are removed. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: Shifter loose-Not the infamous bushing maybe broken cable

I have been suffering from the infamous deteriorated bushing for about 18 months now. Until now, have fixed it with tape. But I want to sell it now and need something more permanent. Anyway, I went to a junkyard today and managed to pull off the entire shift cable in about 1 hour. I'm a novice as well. A few clips at the transmission, pulling the bushing off at the gear shift. Hardest part was getting it through the firewall without totally destroying the rubber. If you have questions, e-mail me at [email protected]

My 2005 Jeep Liberty gear shift move back and forward it won't catch what can I do to fix this

hat the issue is with the gear shifter mechanism or the linkages that connect the shifter to the transmission. Here are some steps you can try:
  1. Check the shifter cable: Make sure that the shifter cable is connected properly and that there are no kinks or frays in the cable.
  2. Inspect the linkage: Take a look at the linkages that connect the shifter to the transmission and make sure they are properly attached and not damaged.
  3. Lubricate the mechanism: Apply some lubricant to the shifter mechanism to see if this helps.
If these steps do not solve the issue, it may be best to have a professional mechanic diagnose and repair the problem.
The issue you are facing with your 2005 Jeep Liberty is likely due to a problem with the shifter cable or the gear selector mechanism. It's recommended that you have a qualified mechanic diagnose and repair the problem as it may require disassembling the shifter and selector mechanism. If the problem is a broken shifter cable, it will need to be replaced. If it is a problem with the selector mechanism, it may need to be cleaned, lubricated, or repaired.

Ford focus 2000 gear shifter went loose with bad odor. Still shifts into reverse. Manual. Help

It sounds like there may be an issue with the gear shifter mechanism in your 2000 Ford Focus. The loose shifter and bad odor could indicate that something has broken or worn out inside the mechanism, and it might not be fully disengaging the gears. The fact that it still shifts into reverse suggests that the problem is not with the transmission itself but with the gear shifter assembly.
To fix the issue, the gear shifter mechanism will likely need to be disassembled and inspected for wear or damage. Any broken or worn parts will need to be replaced. It could be caused by the bushings or the gear shift cable that connects the gear shift lever to the transmission. These parts could be dried out, loose or broke. It is also possible that the linkage inside the gear shifter assembly is corroded, or there's internal issue with the shifter mechanism.
Given that it is a manual transmission , it is important that the vehicle is properly repaired as soon as possible to avoid further damage to the transmission or other components. It is best to take it to a professional mechanic to have it inspected and repaired.

2016 ford f150 gear shift stuck in reverse is there a simple fix to the problem

Your problem could be in one of three problems. The shifter its self, the shifter cable, or the transmission. First disconnect the shifter cable from the shifter. It is easily done under the dash. If that frees the shifter, then the next step is to disconnect the cable from the transmission. If the cable then moves freely, then the problem is in the transmission. Fixing the problem depends on what the problem is. There could be a problem with the bushings in the shifter or a broken shifter shaft/restriction. The column is easily lowered to inspect the shaft. If the cable is stuck, it should be replaced. Internal transmission problems requires a mechanic.

1988 Dodge Ram 50 Automatic shifts into park reverse and neutral. But physically won't go into drive gears.

Disconnect shift cable from transmission linkage and try to manually put transmission in drive gear ( make sure wheels chocked/park brake on ). If transmission goes into drive gear, suspect a shift cable or shifter assembly problem. If you can't manually shift into drive gear by hand with cable disconnected, suspect internal transmission/shift linkage issue

My 1997 Chevy Cavalier automatic transmission is stuck in neutral and the shifter just glides from park, won't engage in any gears.

If the shift handle moves extremely freely (more than normal), changes are that the shift cable has become disconnected from the shift lever. This would explain the indicator not moving out of neutral.
You will need to access the shift lever by removing the console cover. Once you access the shifter check the cable connection to the level. If the cable is broken, it will need replacement. If the cable clip has broken or fallen off, it will need to be reattached.

2000 sable- can't shift out of park. shifter glides and needle on dash moves there's no gears shifting. is the transmission blown?

Not likely a blown transmission. More of a shifter cable issue. There is an adjustment nut on the ****** end. It could be loose or missing. If the nut is fine you have a broken cable.

Car was put in park and would not shift into any other gear, the shifter just slides very loosely into the other gears. It's as if there is no resistence to the shifter when you are trying to shift. I...

sounds more like a gear selector cable.
kick down cable would normally be connected to the throttle somewhere and would not affect the shift lever

Gear shift will not move out of park

Try checking your Transmission Range Sensor (this is also called the NSS or Neutral Safety Switch). If you haven't had any problems with the transmission before, this would be a good place to look. You can also check for a broken shifter cable. Does the gear indicator move but the transmission not shift? If the lever moves but it doesn't shift the transmission, you're probably looking at a broken shifter cable.
