#23 of 44 99 mazda 626 auto trans. trouble by 5ddjjh Sep 20, 2008 (6:26 am)
it was suggested that i check for ablown fuse in my 99 mazda 626 w/ auto trans. the car suddenly quit shifting into gear and a check of the fluid reveals it is up to level and not burned. when you start the engine, the fluid level drops, indicating that the pump is functioning. My questions are 1. if there is a blown fuse, where is it located? 2. if not a blown fuse, where would the module be located that affects shifting?

I have a 2000 mazda 626 that starts just fine but when put into any gear (even neutral) will not move at all, wont roll, wont go anywhere. Any ideas what it might be? Thanks!

Replying to: mkmvette (Sep 24, 2008 5:37 am) Marsha,              My daughter has a 99 626 automatic and it suddenly quit moving when you shift it into any posistion. In this case, it turned out to be simple. The transmission shift cable came loose at the transmission. It appeared to have lost some sort of retainer that attaches the cable to the shift lever on the transmission. It was a cheap and easy fix. Good luck                                     David Replies to this message: mkmvette (Sep 24, 2008 7:16 am) boat8 (Oct 24, 2008 9:43 am) 5ddjjh (Oct 24, 2008 10:26 am)

Replying to: boat8 (Oct 24, 2008 9:43 am) Let me make sure that I understand. You have a Mazda 626 with the problem of the transmission not shifting into gear? And is due to the shift cable coming off at the transmission shift lever, found under the hood located on the left side near the fire wall? If so, the problem is the same as I encountered. Initially to make mine work, I took ahold of the end of the shift cable and spun it 180 degrees, which caused it to lay tightly against the shift lever on the transmission. At that point there was nothing holding it securely other than the force of being rotated. I then took it to my local Transmission shop and he figured out some sort of retainer(that he made up himself) and unrotated my cable and reattached it to the transmission shift lever, all for no cost. Even if you needed to pay to have this done, any local, decent repair shop should be able to make a repair for a minimal amount, say 40.00 or less. I have said a lot, and hope somehow this helps.

#32 of 44 Re: trans range switch [bkristeller] by alanbiogen Nov 12, 2008 (5:06 pm)
Replying to: bkristeller (May 08, 2008 9:15 am) I have a 2000 626 4 cyl auto transmission as well. I am having the exact same problem. I replaced the transmission, the O2 sensors, the Max Air Flow sensor, installed a TransGo shift kit, installed a Hayden heavy duty transmission cooler, replaced the speed sensor, had the computer flashed to update the code, replaced both CV joint transaxles and it still has the same problem as the one you are describing. I just ordered a used PCM (computer) and a throttle position sensor.   Other than a manual lever position sensor (transmisson gear sensor) I don't know what else there is to do.   What is a transmission range switch?   Did you ever solve your problem? If so, how?   I am desperate. Please email me at alan at alancox dot name.   Thanks.
