Less than ten minutes ago i tried to put me 1992 N/T plymouth laser in to reverse and all that would happen was a slight increase in the RPM’s.

i tried to put it in neutral and it went forward so did everything else except park(which worked fine) and reverse(which didnt do anything). I know this might already be posted but i was wondering if there was any _specific_ thing that might be wrong.

may i also add that in park my RPM’s wont go above 2k. Please i really need help as soon as possible.Thank you.

linkage may be f’d up or loose. Pull the center console around the shifter. Check to see that the cables/linkages are securely attached. Very good chance a clip came off.

Could be a clip holding the linkage to the tranny as well. I’m assuming this is an auto. Could be something with the shift lock thingamajigger too.

take off the top. There is a heavy cable coming into the shifter from the front of the car. The cable is in a sheath/tube. The end of the tube is secured(with a clip) to bracket that is bolted to the chassis/floor of the car. Sometimes those clips come loose. The cable should be free to move but sheath should be firmly secured.
