1988 automatic transmission gears will not engage appears pinkish red in transmission and a buddy know where to go from here.? Will not engage reverse drive on any other gear. Happened: accelerated onto the freeway then all of a sudden felt like car went into neutral. But the case. The gears will not engage for reverse or drive. Advise?

Check you tranmission linkage cable its on the front of your transmission and is held on with one bolt check it out could have backed off some or could be your torque converter and check the fuse in the cabin driver side if it blows it wont let it switch ill check and let u know which on it is cause mine blowed and about replaced the tranny cause of a damn fuse...hope this helps

Any noise before the neutral like charcteristics? Sounds like some splines stripped or a shaft sheared.....Maybe you got low on fliud and it failed since you said it was pink that sounds like air in the fluid.....Drop the pan and look!

make sure you didnt snap an axle. and make sure the fluid is full
