Hi All,
Here are the details/history... Vehicle is an 97 Camry (a541e) check engine light came on with code P0753 (Shift Solenoid A Electrical) I just changed the shift solenoid yesterday now can't reverse only forward with code P0753 & P0758.
This is my dad car he passed away six years ago I try to hold on to the car as long as I can just to remember of him.

What could possible wrong ? any help is greatly appreciated,

 

Appears to be a problem with a solenoid.

See private message.

 

Just a quick question the original solenoids does not have the ground wire (blk) the news does have a ground wire required to attach to the valve body.
Are they interchangeable ?
This is the original look likes.

Don't know.

Appears to be a different solenoid design. The ROSTRA part does come up when researching the Toyota part number substitutes. However on VERY RARE occasion RO has listed the wrong part.

Did the solenoids fully seat into the valve body?

Checked on the car last night and here what happens.

Fluid level = Normal

Reverse = Moved forward a little bit then stop.

Drive = Not moving.

2 = Moving forward

L = Not moving



This happens without stepping on gas pedal.

 

Other then the trouble code did the trans have Forward and or Reverse prior to changing solenoids.

Have you done the suggestion below:

Yes the trans have forward and reverse prior changing the solenoid, no I have not the time I planning to do it in the weekend, someone told me could be the NSS (Neutral Safety Switch) could be bad but I don't see how.

 

The P/N switch blocks out the starter circuit. The switch also illuminates the selected gear icon on the dash. If the engine is starting and the indicator shows the correct gear, the switch is working OK.
