98 legacy GT 5sMT won't shift into 2nd gear!!


Recommended Posts

Shifter has been working great until today. I went through a laser wash and had the underside of my vehicle sprayed. Half way through the wash my check engine light came on so I headed straight home. I reversed into my garage then had to leave shortly after. As I was accelerating down the street I went to shift into second only to be rejected. No grinding or any noise, just not wanting to seat in position. All other gears work fine. I went back home check my MTF and it was normal color, smell, and at full line. Completely lost!!

Well, something is obviously causing a jam and not allowing the shifter/linkage pulling the shift rod to pull the fork/shift sleeve into/over the syncro and onto the input shaft gear.

 

You're probably going to have to pull the trans if it doesn't work itself out over time. It could be a couple of things. Don't try and force it in too much as you'll cause more damage.
