What, is wrong with my suv. It is a automatic. My gear shifter on the steering wheel seems as if it is broke. It moves across the gears but wont go into reverse,drive,neutral,?

it probably did the gear selector has a cable attached to it that runs down to transmission --the cable can become disconnected [plastic clips]due to age wear or damaged by debris look under vehicle and check cable and connector also check the connection at the column

I need a manual for a 1999 mercedes benz clk430

If by won't change gears you mean that the shifter will not come out of park. The manual will not help you in that situation. The shifter assembly will have to be replaced especially if a liquid was spilled directly on it. There is a shifter override feature on the shifter if you remove the shifter wood trim that sits around the shifter. There is a black lever on that can be pushed down while pulling the shifter knob out of park.

2000 ford mercury 3.0, shifter wont move. had a fender bender, put it into park and it wouldn't come back out.


For car not changing gears it can be shifter assembly issue, or it can also be transmission issue. Get the shifter assembly inspected with ignition OFF.

For more troubleshooting, I suggest you to get the Following help link checked, its complete step by step procedure to inspect gear shift issues: -----

Will not shift out of park

can you move the shifter and it wont go into gear or will the shifter not move at all?? if shifter wont move, there is an electrical solinoid that will not allow the shifter to release when the car is off, that could be faulty, i think it also has a safety mechanism that wont allow it to shift if your foot is not on the brake? if the shifter moves through prn321 but the trans wont come out of park, you have broken the shifter cableand or damaged the shifter mechanism in the trans. hope i have been of some assistance

Gear shifter was working, now wont come out of park into gear.

check and make sure the brake lights work, if they don't the park interlock safety will keep u from moving shifter.

My grand prix wont go into gear

set your parking brake, insert your key into the shift interlock, located next to your shifter, push all the way in, move your gear shifter to neutral, remove key, start car, release parking brake, drive away, have it serviced ASAP

GEO TRACKER AUTO shifter does not release from park

I found this online. Check to see if you have back brake lights. If not the fuse for them also triggers the gear release.
