Ford Transmission :: 1994 - Barely Engage - Grinding Noise In Park And Neutral?

I have a 1994 F-150 extended cab electronically activated 4x4, with the 302 V8 and an e4od transmission.

When the truck is running and it is in park or neutral it makes a grinding/whining noise and when it is in gear it doesn't engage, or occasionally will barely engage, but only enough to move it a little ways.

I've read a couple of post that suggested bad connections to the transmission could cause the transfer case to be in neutral which could cause a similar problem to this. I checked all the connection the best I could and the only thing I found that gave me any concern was one of the wires connected to the transfer case shift motor had some of the insulation melted or rubbed of and the wire was a bit corroded.

Is there any chance that this could be causing my overall problem with the truck not driving? Or what might be going on with it? Or any way I might be able to fix it without having to hand over a significant chunk of change for the full rebuild.

Ford Transmission :: 4r100 - Rattle Noise In Park And Neutral

I've got a 2001 E350 van with the 5.4 triton and 4R100 transmission in it. Has about 130,000 miles on it. I was doing some work under it a couple of days ago and noticed a rattling noise coming from the front of the bell housing. I can't hear it sitting in the vehicle or standing next to it but it's pretty scary sounding with my face under the inspection cover.

Shifting is smooth no noticeable problems there. Tranny fluid looks good, not burnt. After further investigation the noise is only present in park or neutral. In drive it goes away. In park it takes a few minutes of warm up for it to begin starting as a light tap tap, eventually working its way up to a clatter once warm. I know the 99 4r100 had some TC issues that sounded like this. It sounds like it's in front of the TC so I'm thinking the flex plate maybe?

Elantra HD (2006-10) :: When Put In Park Car Kept Rolling Like In Neutral And Started Making A Loud Grinding Noise

I have a 2007 Elantra with 138,000 miles. I never had any slipping or jerking or reverse issues in the past. I got into the car put it in reverse just fine then put it in drive and nothing happened, I put it in park and the car kept rolling like in neutral and started making a loud grinding noise. When I put the transmission in any other gear the noise stops but will not move and acts as if in neutral.

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: 2009 - Gear Grinding In Neutral And Park

My 2009 Sonata, 2. 4 L engine, base model with automatic transmission started up and ran OK, but 20 minutes later when I parked the car and shifted towards Park the gears grinded in neutral, stopped grinding in Reverse, and then grinded again when I made it to Park, and I quickly turned off the engine.

When I restarted, it grinded in Park, OK past Reverse, Grinded in Neutral, and then OK in Drive. How serious this is, or if there is anything I can check out on my own?

Ford Transmission :: 2007 E350 - Shudder When Accelerating In OD - Whine In Park / Neutral

Looking for your collective expertise

2007 E350 with 5.4L and 4R70W trans. 107K miles and the fluid has probably never been changed ( my mistake - thought it was 100K interval - finding out from my reading that is def not true ). Anyway, following is recent development (last couple days):

Symptom #1: In Park/Neutral there is a whine. As soon as you put it in P or N, the whine 'spins up', stabilizes, and does increase with engine RPM.
Symptom #2: Hesitation (albeit minor) when starting from stop in D and R, with _very_ minor shudder. Sometimes feels like it's struggling a bit to move its own weight just until it's rolling.
Symptom #3: Shudder when accelerating in OD. No shudder when I turn off OD. It does not stop when applying brakes (a test suggested elsewhere). Also, the shudder does not happen when applying gas while braked in D at standstill. Only at highway speeds (enough to be in OD).

This all started at the end of a trip (90 miles or so in 85-90 degrees) when I was pulling a utility trailer (maybe 2000 lbs loaded). Not sure if related, but traction control warning went off a couple times. I think I have a axle seal leak that may be triggering that.

Otherwise shifts fine (no change in shift behavior or smoothness). Things seem to be worse when it has heated up. Should I start with a fluid change? Wasn't sure because there are comments out there saying don't do it or the tranny will just fail faster (I am skeptical).

Accent MC (2006-11) :: Transmission Whine In Park / Neutral And Drive

My 2011 Hatchback automatic has developed a whine in park, neutral and drive. ATF fluid level ok and changed by dealer every 25,000 miles. Seems to be coming from under the car. Could it be the transmission oil pump? If so, does it mean removing transmission to replace? I don't think it's the fuel pump. 62,000 miles.

Ford Wiring/Electrical :: Analog MLPS Neutral Safety Switch Shows Continuity In Neutral But Not In Park

I have a '94 E4OD trans in my '53 F100. It uses an analog MLPS for the gear selection indicator, Neutral Safety Switch, and Backup light.

My MLPS Neutral Safety Switch shows continuity in Neutral, but not in Park, I need to be able to energize the starter solenoid in both Park & Neutral.

Shouldn't the MLPS show continuity in both Park & Neutral?

Mercury - Grandmarquis :: 2002 - Wipers Park In Extreme Up Position

My wipers lately park in the extreme "up" (all the way left) position. The only way to get them to park in the normal "down" position is to use an intermittent wiper setting, wait for the pause between strokes, and then turn it off. It's a 2002 model.

Ford Transmission :: Grinding Noise Coming From The Transmission

I swapped a t5 transmission from a s-10 into my 52 ford f3. I am trying to rundown a grinding noise coming from the transmission. I replaced the throw out bearing and the input shaft bearing on the transmission. With the transmission partially apart I couldn't find any obvious problems. The noise is only present when the clutch is depressed either in gear out out of gear.

Left in neutral there isn't any noise. I initially thought the throw out bearing was the culprit and replaced both that and the input shaft bearing. What could be wearing out? The transmission shifts perfectly but there is a binding noise when the clutch is released in first and sometimes second gear. another binding noise is present when making a hard left turn while starting out. I am at a loss here....

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2003 F250 Lariat 7.3L - Grinding Noise When In Park

The problem I am having is that there is a grinding noise when in park. If i shift into gear then it is fine but shifting back to park very big grinding noise. At the same time I have the Speedometer and fan for the heat not working as well as the heater for the seats.

This problem is so bad I am afraid to drive and get stuck somewhere. I have checked the starter and it is tight ad secure. all fluids are fine. Not sure what this would be? This is the single vehicle i have for work and family.

Ford Transmission :: 1987 F250 - Rattling Noise When In Neutral And Stops When Put The Clutch In

I just recently picked up a 87 F250 with a 6.9 and a ZF5 trans. The PO replaced the clutch, and mentioned that he replaced the clutch fork too

Since I bought the truck, I've had some nasty rattling noises. It rattles when in neutral, and stops when I put the clutch in. The noise also comes back on occasion when decelerating at highway speeds, in 2nd as soon as I stop accelerating, and at low speeds in 3rd.

What is causing this?

Ford Transmission :: Grinding Noise Then Shift Into Gear?

I have a f1ta 5 speed trans on my 4.9 and when i press the clutch in and shift into 1st gear it makes a grinding noise then goes into gear after a little patience. but if i press the clutch and wait a few seconds, then shift into 1st its fine and goes right in.... maybe syncronizers not meshing or they're worn? or could it possibly be a low fluid prob? idk, it just started happening.
