What to Do When the Gear Cannot Be Disengaged?
1 Answers
The inability to disengage the gear is mostly due to problems with the transmission or clutch. This issue is quite complex and must be addressed at a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop, where experts can diagnose and repair it. Common causes include the following: 1. Loose or missing screws: At the rear of the transmission, there is a shift lever adjustment screw that connects the transmission shift lever to the internal gear-shifting mechanism via two rods, facilitating the adjustment of the shift lever position. If this screw becomes loose or falls out, the shift handle inside the car may move but fail to transmit the action to the transmission, making it impossible to disengage the gear. 2. Excessive meshing force between gears: If the clutch pressure plate is damaged and cannot disengage, the engine continues to supply power to the wheels, causing the gears to tightly mesh and transmit power. Due to the high meshing force, it becomes difficult to disengage the gear. 3. Broken shift lever cable: If the shift lever cable is broken, the response from the shift lever cannot be transmitted to the transmission actuator. The transmission mainly refers to the car's gearbox, which includes manual and automatic types. A manual transmission primarily consists of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque variation through different gear combinations. An automatic transmission (AT) is composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, a hydraulic torque variation system, and a hydraulic control system, achieving speed and torque variation through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations.
