I am hoping somebody might have had this problem and found an easy fix for it.

I installed an automatic trans in my car, replacing the broke one that was in it. I started it up last night, and drove it around the block. It shifted good, and cycled through all the gears. I went out to the garage today and tried to pull the car out in the driveway. NO MOVEMENT. When I put the car from Park to Drive no shifting. I can hear clicking noise from the side of the trans(right around the valve body), but it doesn't engage.

When I put the car in neutral the car does move, so the mechanical side is working... but drive and reverse don't go anywhere. I tried unplugging all the connectors and plugging them back in hoping it was just a plug that came undone, but no luck. If anyone has any helpfull advise that would be great.
 
i recently had the same problem, check the pins on the auto tranny, make sure none are bent. Also u might want to check ure filter see that its ok.
Hope that helps
 
filter is good, just had it installed at the trans shop. I checked the pins and they are good. Just curious the trans takes 7.1 quarts for a 95 GS-T automatic, does this include the tranny cooler and lines? I drained the entire system so it should take more than seven quarts right?
