Transmission will not engage before it happened it ran and shifted like a dream

Hello,

This sounds like the gear range sensor has gone out. But to be sure here is the wiring diagrams and the sensor location so you can do some testing we should runt he codes as well:

Also check fuses # 14, 19, 42. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken

Thank you. I will scan the codes on Monday or Tuesday when I am off work and let you know. I will check those other things. I really appreciate it Ken. I know before it happened it would go into drive from reverse hard.

Yep lets run the codes see what comes up, please let me know.

Hi Ken, all fuses checked good. There is no check engine light so no trouble codes stored or pending.

Let's check the fluid level and condition, also can you tell me if the reverse lights work? A bad gear range sensor can cause this problem. Here is the location as you can check it out.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find.

Ken, the fluid level is good and the reverse lights do work.

You can try the gear position sensor but it sounds like the transmission let go. You might need a rebuilt unit. Here is a video that shows a front wheel drive transmission removal:

It is a standard transmission but many of the steps are the same.
