Transmission replacement / 97 Honda accord
|
|
|
I have a 97 Honda accord w/ 300k mile. 2.2 /4 cylinder engine. I am a Saturday mechanic with limited means to do stuff.
I got a used transmission from the junkyard (pullapart Nashville) from a 95 accord. Should be the same, the part looks good. Put it in the car, I followed the Haynes manual as best I could and in the reverse order of removal. did not use a torque wrench but am a good guesser, Everything went back in pretty well, except for breaking the plastic parts that connect to sensors. The problem seems mechanical and don't think the sensors are at fault.
I put other parts back in place, Ie... Starter, hoses, battery, specific bolts that keep pressure in the transmission, exhaust manifold, axels , control arms, ext. ( I did skip the cross-member support but as it is just there as a guard I don't know what it matters).
-Start the engine, get the fluid to correct level. Temperature up. When I put it in gear I got nothing till D4 which makes a light grind, no attempt to move or clunk to indicate it engaged. Park also is a grind.
That's where it sits. Thank you for helpful comments. Kyle

As long as the shift linkage is connected and adjusted properly and you have enough fluid in it, the transmission has an internal problem. Do you have warranty on it?

Are the drive axles fully seated in the transmission?
