1990 dodge roadtrek

is the gear lever working as usual- does it seem to move a linkage...do you hear stuff moving when you move the lever?
( I once had my linkage get funky on a long drive across the desert...and found out when i stopped for gas...luckily able to fix with a found bent nail)

what happens when it doesn;t move- just revving?

fluid level?

mike

linkage seems ok, fluid ok, pink & sweet smelling...no sounds from trans, motor revs.....maybe electrical?

Mary, is this the original 1990 transmission?

1990 is probably mechanical linkage not electrical. A visit to a transmission shop is in order.

Just started van and it went into gear, hope it continues to work right.

be more specific

do you get R, N D ,2,1 ?

if you put in D and rev..does the motor rev freely like no load or does it strain...in R?

if the fluid level correct

are you parked on level ground

the more detailed you can be- it helps to rule out possible causes

you can't assume this will fix itself...cause when it fails it won;t fail in front of a tranny shop

Get it checked out by mechanics. Go directly to the shop. Do not keep gambling. Do not pass go or collect $200.

Yeah, you definitely do not want it to quit on the freeway.
