I have a 2007 Ford Five hundred that when I shift when it's off it moves. But when I turn the car on & shift it won't move

It's a TBS transmission. It's not making any noise either. I was told it could be computer on the transmission?

You seem to be saying that the car moves when the engine is off - - - - but won't move with the engine running?

If that's the case, sounds like you will need to have it towed to a repair facility.

BTW: what's a "TBS transmission"… Mine has a CVT - am not familiar with the TBS.

Do you put your foot on the brake after starting the engine? Try it, then try shifting. Sounds more like a safety interlock to me…

  • What type of transmission fluid does a 2007 Ford Five Hundred Sel take? My car needs more transmission fluid but i don't know which one and my mechanic told me it needs a specific type of fluid. And i don't have the owner s manual.
  • My Ford Transit headlights turn on in off position and turn off in the on position? I'm a new driver, just passed my test. My van has some issue with the lights: namely, the lights turn off in the on position when the dash lights come on, and turn on when they are supposed to be off. This means that I'm driving at night without dash lights as I need to have the lights switched off in order for my headlights to be on. Might this be an electrical issue? Would anybody be able to give me advice and possibly know how much this costs to repair?
