    Transmission stuck in drive no matter where the shift lever is positioned

    Well no luck. I did find I reinstalled the tube by the filter in the wrong location, but re-torqued all the bolts to 65in/lb and made sure all the solenoid connectors were seated firmly but it still is just stuck in a forward gear (seems like L2). I verified that the shifter does in fact...

    Transmission stuck in drive no matter where the shift lever is positioned

    Thanks fellas. Will be taking my time and double check everything. I did let the pan drain overnight so hopefully that minimizes some of the fluid left in the pan. I'll get wet anyway, but I'm ok with that. Will definitely do a complete flush right when I'm done.

    Transmission stuck in drive no matter where the shift lever is positioned

    I just found this writeup on TacomaWorld and it is fantastic. TransGo Valve Body Shift Kit Install Writeup with Pictures Believe I reinstalled the B-0 springs and drain check valve correctly, so likely just the shifter linkage didn't get seated properly. I'm hopeful that's what I find this...

    Transmission stuck in drive no matter where the shift lever is positioned

    Hi flintknapper - yeah the differing length bolts had me initially hesitating, but after finding the proper section of the FSM and the specific bolts to remove, I dove in. Interestingly, I'm 95% certain this is not the first time the valve body has been removed as the FSM shows 2 bolt lengths...

    Transmission stuck in drive no matter where the shift lever is positioned

    Great question, and I should have included that. So, to start it's my wife's DD, so I don't drive it often and she's not attuned to small drivability changes/differences. She told me about the CEL before leaving for work, so didn't drive it once it appeared. I ran a scan and it only reported...

    Transmission stuck in drive no matter where the shift lever is positioned

    Nice homemade one - I like it. I have a few different things laying around that I used, but reverted to a longer pry bar in the end as it just wouldn't budge. Bent the lip of the pan a little but it straightened out fine with a little work around the bench vise (just for straight line...

    Transmission stuck in drive no matter where the shift lever is positioned

    Thanks 2001LC. I did part of that myself last night to confirm the mechanical shift arm still moved as it is supposed to, but I didn't watch for the neutral lock off switch. Thank you for the suggestion. I will try that, then if all is working, will pull the pan again. At least, after taking...

    Transmission stuck in drive no matter where the shift lever is positioned

    Ok so my first post here is a doosey. Long time shade tree mechanic with several engine rebuilds (stripped to the block, rebuilt) under my belt so I am brave enough to probably get into trouble sometimes. Have a new to me 2000 LC100 with the A340F family transmission. Was throwing code P1760...
