Transmission problem
1992 Mercury Sable Front Wheel Drive Automatic 180000 miles

I was driving my car to work and it was having some trouble accelortating. Then when I tried to go after stopping at a light it just reved. I turned it off and then back on and it drove for just a little bit before only reving again. I have done some research and it sounds like something just came disconnected. Any ideas what?? and if I could fix it myself? and where the problem is?

Hi eshankli,

Thank you for the donation.

Symptoms indicate the transmission has malfunctioned and is not engaging.

Check the transmission fluid level and top up if necessary.

Get a scan done to retrieve for trouble codes and let me know the EXACT trouble code if any found.
