Thank you soo much. I have a 2013 that Fiat here in NZ my issue of not selecting neutral when I stop. I asked for Fiat here for a accelerator unit cost over $700 NZ or almost 350 pound. I found one at a wreckers for equiv 100 pound from a 65000km car. Worked perfectly!!!! Thanks again. great work.
Hi , I believe so yes, as there was someone else who had the reverse issue and they changed the pedal and it fixed it for them, it’s definitely worth trying this 👍🏽
@@Stevie_G8 for sure saved me some time. And if you think about the behavior that kinda' makes sense. The car "sees" that the acceleration pedal is not in idle position (which prevents gearbox from going to N) Also the engine rpm is not high enough to be noticed. In my case I had to press and release quickly the throttle pedal few times. Issue is gone now. Maybe some dust or dirt got inside the mechanical part. If this issue comes back, then I'll probably buy a new pedal. Cheers!
Thx informative. I haven’t had this problem but I had a one Time issue that my 500 didn’t want to turn over. It’s an automatic transmission and the tow truck driver put my car in neutral and it started up!!??! It’s never happened since. Had it checked out and no error codes were present? I’ll keep ur video in mind Incase it happens again. Thx
Hi Eliz, Thanks for your comment, It sounds like you just had a little computer glitch, the dualogic usually puts itself back into neutral when starting, sounds like this didn’t happen for you so it wouldn’t start but when put back there manually it lined everything back up again which is fantastic news :)
do i have the same problem? I have an Abarth semi-automatic. Lately the car automatically shifts to neutral while driving and I get the message (have your transmission checked). and sometimes it doesn't want to shift and sometimes it drives excellent. All oil has been replaced and there are no reports of malfunctions.
@@sefakilic8663 I’m not sure but the pedal does effect the transmission, I think there are other people with the same problem as you , look and see if there is a solution if not You could always try this and see what happens
Hi. I have a Lancia Musa 2006 1.3 diesel automatic. Sometimes gives me an error gearbox failed for 2 sec and then disappear. This message always comes when is 2d gear. It pops up for 3-4 sec and then disappear. Car change gears normal. Only when message pops up won't go from 2nd to 3nd. Only for this 2 sec. The obd error is P1742. After some days watching the problem i see that message pops up when car is in 2nd gear and wont go to 3d until message disappear. Then it works fine. Same when car is in 2nd and going to 1st. Can you help please May yoy please ask this guy from Italy?. Thanks inadvance.
@@trifaloialone9452 does it give you the same errors when the ignition is on but the car is not running when you go through the gears? My issue would only happen when car was running as in motor was on and I went through the gears not when ignition was on but car not running, this was a way to see if it was the pedal as the fly by wire works with revs, I would test that first then see if the pedal is the same set up as my fiat, I’m not sure but it could be the same scenario as mine
@@trifaloialone9452 if it’s the same style gearbox as what Fiat 500 was then you might have to check the hydraulics to those gears as you might have a perished O ring or a leak in the pipes to that gear, it’s kind of a process of elimination,
I have a 2012 cluster is showing 1 , with visit dealership message and won’t move to anything else , stick moves but nothing changes , and car won’t start , any suggestion?
Without seeing what your shifter or looking at the issue it seems like I think more the plastic grommet from the top of the gearbox that joins to the cable has broken or come off, it’s another common fault,
I’m not sure if it is the same but it’s worth a try, I think there are other videos with the car going in neutral, might be a good idea to have a look at them, all the best
@@DericbI have the same problem! I’ll be driving and the transmission fluid light comes on (even though the level is where is should be) and the car goes into neutral and doesn’t drive or let me change into any gear….

@@faheemjacobs2123 it’s a fly by wire, its computer driven so as your foot goes down at certain revs it changes the gears the pedal determines those revs, if the adjustment point of the pedal is out of position then the revs is out of the neutral range so it won’t go into neutral, this can even effect going in reverse. Too many computers in modern cars these days.
I have problems with my fiat ducato diesel 3.0 2016 couldn’t get out of first gear open driver door also no priming pressure pump sound check all fuse and connect all perfect only have 1 fault code is P181079 on transmissions fault 😭
I would try adjusting the pedal, obviously I wouldn’t know which direction to adjust but if it won’t start then you have nothing to lose to go one way or the other, please let me know how you go when you try it 👍🏽
@@wilco1v I changed my accelerator pedal and it solved it but as you can see in my video there is slotted screws on the box of the pedal, other people here have adjusted the box position with the slotted screw and it has fixed it for them,
If stuck in first gear and won’t go in any other gear then that could be the plastic grommet on the top of the gearbox which is another common fault on these, depending on your model
@@JH-zt5ni and doesn’t that adjust the revs in which tells the computer to change? Oh also have you looked at changing the brake sensor on the footwell of the passenger side? (This is on a RHS car) I heard that can also make this happen.
Hey there, I have a Lancia ypsilon 1.3 multijet. It wan’t go in any gear anymore, it stays in Neutral. I changed the hydrolic robot, now i have fault p0715 and p1810. Could this also be the problem with the pedal?
That’s fantastic news, Thank you for not only testing my theory but letting me know it does work, I bought one from the wrecking yard (breakers yard) this was obviously prior to seeing the slotted adjustment holes. Thanks again buddy for letting me know 👍🏽
Thanks Mate, I have same problem. I pull out the pedal and do the adjustment in the screw and it works. I have fiat 500C.
Fantastic mate, I’m glad I could help in a way that you didn’t have to spend any money 👍🏽did you adjust by going clockwise or anticlockwise?

My car will start and is In neutral but when I select gear 1 auto it says unavailable and have to keep restarting car ? Any ideas
Yes I think this is the pedal issue
One can see that the screws up.left and down.right are moved a bit out of their original position. That makes the difference.
Correct Willem the smallest amount can make a big difference 👍🏽
mine is go to neutral when driving , I need to stop the car and restart and its fine, could be the same problem?

Same problem here, seems when the car is not in working temperature and goes to 5th gear, it will slip into neutral

IF HAVE PROBLEM MOVE TO R
CHANGE PADL FIX IT ?
Yes it should, but you may be able to just adjust it instead of change it
Why not test the theory, all it takes is moving the cable back and forth between the new and old accelerator
I didn’t want to unfix something I’ve already fix, if someone still has their one broken then they have nothing to lose trying it
Hi Anthony, just to let you know that someone has tested my theory and it does work, I hope this does help you
Thanks

@@anticuzzsaw can you please give some info on how to adjust it? I'm having the same problem with not able going into neutral... thanks alot
Bad automatic transmission, is a cheap system, not to trust
I’m not saying it’s a good or bad transmission but this is a way of fixing it if you have one
Actually it is a "robot" hydro/electric shifting system leased from Ford.
And it is mounted on top of the standard Fiat gearbox.
