Vehicle Is Disabled

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Check fluid level and condition.
  2. Check for broken or disconnected gearshift or throttle linkage.
  3. Check for cracked, leaking cooler lines, or loose or missing pressure-port plugs.
  4. Raise and support vehicle on safety stands, start engine, shift transmission into gear, and note following:
    1. If propeller shaft turns but wheels do not, problem is with differential or axle shafts.
    2. If propeller shaft does not turn and transmission is noisy, stop engine. Remove oil pan, and check for debris. If pan is clear, remove transmission and check for damaged drive plate, converter, oil pump, or input shaft.
    3. If propeller shaft does not turn and transmission is not noisy, perform hydraulic-pressure test to determine if problem is hydraulic or mechanical.
