I just did a swap with the same engine as my old one, on a honda civic 1997 ex

I got the head and everything together, runs perfect....i push in the break put it in reverse.....nothing. go to drive, same thing. this is an auto, not a manual. What could i have done wrong?

is everything hooked up? there is a cable i believe the runs form your shifter to your tranny, is it hooked up? second could be a sensor this is unhooked or not wokring. someone else might know better then me. just some ideas

I've done that swap a few times. Make sure the shifter cable is properly reinstalled back into its location in the tranny.

yea, the shift cable, i never disconnected it from the tranny and im usin the same old one, i just disconnected it from the shifter that is ran into the car.

what if i never took it out of the tranny, i unbolted it from the underside where it runs into the inside of the car to the shifter,
