Seriously, truck runs fantastic, all forward gears & overdrive fantastic, 5.9 engine is great.

No reverse gear.

"feels" like it wants to (you know what I mean) just can't get it to go anywhere in reverse gear. Where should I start to look? Truck is in A1 shape, low miles, don't want to junk it, but can't spend 3k on a trans either.


Please, please, help, or point me in the right direction....Found this, but would any throw a fault to the obd computer?

NO REVERSE (D RANGES OK)
1. Gearshift Linkage/Cable Mis-adjusted/Damaged. 1. Repair or replace linkage parts as needed.
2. Park Sprag Sticking. 2. Replace overdrive annulus gear.
3. Rear Band Mis-adjusted/Worn. 3. Adjust band; replace.
4. Valve Body Malfunction. 4. Remove and service valve body. Replace valve body if any valves or valve bores are worn or damaged.
5. Rear Servo Malfunction. 5. Remove and disassemble transmission. Replace worn/damaged servo parts as necessary.
6. Direct Clutch in Overdrive Worn. 6. Disassemble overdrive. Replace worn or damaged parts.
7. Front Clutch Burnt. 7. Remove and disassemble transmission. Replace worn, damaged clutch parts as required.

 

Welcome to DF
Drop the transmission pan and inspect the rear band,for either a broken strut or piston.

 

I have the same problem with my 99 durango...happened in 4wd and then 4wd would not disengage. How would you tell were to look for damage? Any help would be great. Thanks

 

Dont put it in reverse would be the cheapest solution.

 

LOL

Well I guess you would be correct with that statement!
