What happens when you click into forward gear?
The only way I can explain it is I click the gear manually using the lower shaft in the lower unit and it goes into forward (prop goes forward), it goes into neutral (prop spins free), but when it clicks into what should be reverse the prop still spins in the forward motion.
Can a 115 Merc shift to neutral or reverse?
Weird it rod shifts to neutral, then will shift in to reverse but the prop spins forward with the shift rod manually engaged in reverse. years ago when I had a 115 merc. had lower unit off I had same problem.
What to do when your car is stuck in forward gear?
May be as simple as a missing washer on the shift cable linkage, that happened to me once. Disconnect the shift cable at the motor and then try F/N/R while idling.Shift the motors linkage not the control box.That will tell you if its control box or adjustment related. Your shift rod connection (s) came apart when the engine was in forward gear.
Why is my Mercury outboard stuck in forward gear?
At that time the shift rod on this model was not made of stainless steel, and over time this rod got tweeked on both engines. This resulted in each outboard being stuck in forward. I do not know what year your outboard is or if this is a problem with Mercury outboards.
Why is my transmission not shifting to fourth gear?
Similarly, if the direct clutch were to fail, the transmission would lose both reverse gear and overrun braking in 2 position (manual second gear). If the transmission will not shift to fourth gear, the control switch, overdrive solenoid or related wiring may also be the problem cause.
Do you need a pressure gauge to test a transmission?
Unless a malfunction is obvious, such as no drive in D range first gear, do not disassemble the transmission. Perform the hydraulic and air pressure tests to help determine the probable cause. OK So now comes the fun part. You will need a pair of pressure gauges.
What should the reverse line pressure be on a 47RE?
Reverse will be over 250psi usually. – WOT Is defined as the TV lever being moved fully rearward into the open position. You should see a smooth increase of line pressure to the maximum. This test checks pump output, pressure regulation, and condition of the rear clutch and servo circuit.
What causes a car to not move forward or reverse?
What is the one part in the transaxle that can break and eliminate both forward and reverse movement, but doesn’t reduce the transmission fluid pressure below rated pressure, doesn’t make noise when it breaks, isn’t affected by the differential lock pedal, and isn’t caused by the transmission cutout solenoid?
