    91 Accord Transmission Problem

    Okay, so a friend of mine has a 91 Accord with an auto tranny, it is stuck in reverse. Whether the shifter is in park, neutral, drive whatever, the car still goes in reverse. Does anyone know what might be causing this? I was thinking maybe TCU, but I wanted to get some advise before blindly going at this problem.

    Thanks

    Check the shift cables and all electrical stuff regarding the A/T.

        I'd suspect that the control cable came disconnected. If park behaves like reverse, but electrically the car thinks everything is OK (only starts in "park" and the indicator shows the shift lever position), that is a mechanical problem, not the TCU.

        I forget, but I think you can see the cable push the lever on the outside of the transmission from underneath it. Inside, you can disassemble the shift lever to access that cable linkage. The Haynes manual gives directions.

          I agree. Put the car on stands, and remove the torque converter cover (3 10mm bolts) and you should see where the cable hooks up. If neccessary, you may need to remove the cable holder behind the converter cover (3 or 4 12mm bolts). Get someone to shift the lever while you check. The cable is hooked up to a shaft so when the cable moves, the shaft should be moving as well. If the cable moves but the shaft isn't, the pin/bolt probably got sheered.
