What is stuck?

the linkage or the cable from the shifter to the trans.?

block the tires so the car can not roll away...
open the hood and remove the cable from the shifter on the transmission.
see if you can manualy move the shifter on the trans.
if that moves... you may need to replace the cable (shift linkage)

Pop the little 1/2 inch plastic cover piece next to the shifter off and press the little button.

Toyota Tercel stuck in gear

Its a gear shift issue.


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 ****.

I have a 94 Tercel - 4 speed on floor. I cannot put it into 4th gear without it popping out. I was told it needed a new shift cable. This car apparently has 2 cables. One for 1st and 2nd and one for 3rd...

Any car I ever had which had manual shift and was popping out of gear meant that it was time for another transmission. A junkyard can tell you what years and models of toyota transmissions will fit.
Yes they usually have two shifter cables, pull the console and look under your shifter.

Automatic trans stuck in low

first a black thick cable connects between acclerator control and the straight to the gearbox.[yoou can find it easily].just put less force and pull towards you[just a inch,holding top end in your hand] and release back to normal.if you cant then you have to clean the cable.secondly,clean the filter in the automatic gearbox...it can be doneby petrol and dry with blower.
