..

you have a 1500 that the shifter moves to drive and vehicle doesnt or shifter doesnt move and stuck in park or shifter moves into gear and shifts but not move so which is it since you have given us three different problems in the mean time check fluid and level in tranny as well as the trans cable under vehicle usually rust out

Sounds like your transfer case in neutral. You have to engage the transfer case back into gear then shift selector to drive or reverse. When your transfer is in neutral the transmission will not operate. Good luck.

Could be a shift solenoid or several other problems. You are over-riding the valve body and solenoids when you manually shift the trans.

Sounds to me that you need your trans fluid changed and filter. When you do change it use a quart of Lucas transmission conditioner to it. Also check and see if you may have a bad univercel, It will also make it vibrate at faster speeds or your drive shaft may need to be rebalanced.

you need to readjust your cable.

the cable has prob broke and the tranny is still in gear and thats why it wont start replace the cable!!!

is it parked in a steep hill, if so,try to releave some pressure off it,and try to shift it,if not,block wheels so van wont move,inspect shift linkage,if ok,undo linkage from tranny,try shifter invan if it moves ok,if not,inspectshifter and linkange,if its ok,try moving shifter arm at tranny,be careful!if it doesnt move, youll have to take oil pan off tranny and inspect park gear lock.
