I just remembered my sister's Toyota Matrix gearbox failed in a similar manner last year and the gear was replaced.

Your mechanic might be right, geovidal.

Strange. No forward, no reverse? Just like that.

Check sump. Is the input shaft spinning?

Yes o, just like that. Shaft not spinning.

The input shaft I am referring to is the one that enters the gearbox. You won't know unless you put a scanner. Is your sump dented?

Raise the front tyres and see if they spin in D.

Dear op, did you scan this car... (transmission codes) at all?...I think you should do that before concluding on replacing your gearbox.
Re: Corolla 04 Gear Issue by NobleEngineer(m): 11:24pm On Mar 06, 2018
most of the mechanics in ilorin are very incompetent. Especially when you have a highly technical issue with your car, you feel like giving up. My car still rattles on acceleration till today (no CEL or error codes thrown) no mechanic in town could fix it. last last i was told "na so Toyota engine dey do" lwkmd.
OP lets collabo and tow our vehicles to Gazzuz's workshop in lagos.

Geovidal let me teach you a quick way to know your gear is good.

Go to workshop, start car, put it in drive, depress accelerator, if the speedometer moves gear is fine,
call police grin

this is wrong for a 2004 corrola.

There is no vSS on the gearbox for output speed to the cluster.

The 2002-2003 has a VSS on the gearbox.

The test above will not move the needle because the wheel speed sensors transfer information Via abs unit to the cluster.

Tow your car home we will continue diagnosis from there.

This is getting complicated, I have towed the car to my house. I just want to solve the problem once and for all cos it has hindered me from doing so many things. My work place is outskirts of Ilorin 2hrs drive to and fro.

Re: Corolla 04 Gear Issue by obekediamondfuto(m): 6:05pm On Mar 10, 2018
sounds electrical, all 2 of those codes are solenoid related, what are the odds that two different solenoids fail the same time?
last code is a tranny related limp mode code, so yep sounds electrical and not mechanical

since ur kazeem cannot understand what is happening, he wants the shortest and fastest way out .... replacing transmission - cos a replacement has a better chance of having working solenoids, a rebuild might work.... but he failed to acknowledge ecm and wiring!

Gazuzz has got ur back tho, seems highly electrical and not mechanical

what I'd do.... I'll check trans dipstick and level, jack front end of vehicle, start the car, put it in gear and try clearing the codes..... a Bluetooth scanner would be very efficient here as u would be able to see if the CV joints and wheel move WHEN/IF the codes are cleared...
Re: Corolla 04 Gear Issue by ruby360: 11:12pm On Mar 10, 2018
Your Gear cable simply unhooked maybe because the way you use it.


The need to dissemble the plastic covers and attach it back. if you listen to that stupid mechanic then you are a mugu.

seems the socket just came off.
Geodeval go and push down all the sockets in this area down your self, it is under the battery area. Push harness down firmly, also check if rodents( rats) have been nibbling on your wires in same area.

Geovidal, you can call this guy in Ilorin:

Imperial Auto Clinic
0706 771 8297.

Never met him, but I was told he is foreign trained. Hopefully, he may be able to help since he is local. He used to operate a workshop inside Lubcon station beside stadium a few years ago, but I think he has moved.
