My Honda Accord 2003 I4 Won't Engage Reverse by TemmyDayo50(m): 6:18am On Nov 18, 2021
Top of the morning to us all...
Please kindly profer a possible solution to this...

I use an Honda accord 2003 Ex 4 plugs.. I had a major work done on the car engine recently which prompted the mechanic to remove my engine from the car.. On mounting the engine back, we noticed the gear won't engage to reverse once you start the car but once we shift it to Drive and then back to reverse, it will now then engage reverse. Also, the Drive only Engages the first gear without shifting to other gears...so presently, it only moves on gear 1 without changing to 2 let alone get to 4. I tried shifting it manually from D1 to D2 but still, it won't change from gear 1. The problem just started when we mounted the engine back... There was nothing wrong with the gear prior that and it was shifting smooth.. So I guess it may be a wrong connection from the mechanic but we checked and yet, we haven't seen anything that's out of place in the components around the gear...

Please help in proffering possible solution. It's really affecting my business at the moment as I can't use the car...

Scan the car and share code

Hope the mechanic protected the opening of the transmission/gear box from contamination when engine was dropped?

Hello..

Bro I don't trust all this mech oo..

First, was the gear also brought down??

If yes, either ways, was it covered properly to avoid particular or dust from entering the gear..

Now check for this sensor, it's the gear seloniod, let an Honda gear specialist check thoroughly and clean it.

Also, pls get a gear specialist instantly, don't trust that mech o.

And also, check the connection properly, especially that if the gear sensors..

Change transmission fluid. Use only Honda DW1.
