My 2002 CambriCorsa convertible drives fine till the gearbox indication comes on then if you put it in neutral you cannot reverse or go into drive gears. Unplug the battery for 20 seconds then its fine. Then the gearbox indication comes back on and repeat the process. Pump sounds good and clutch was replaced at 15,000 car has 35,000 - In thinking clutch fluid is causing it. It happens on the highway or in regular traffic. Whats everyones thoughts?

It's not clutch fluid..The battery disconnect is your clue on that..The TCU or transmission ECU needs to be scanned for faults...Jason

Thanks Jason - I had it in the shop at Maserati in St Louis, MO and they found no issues and said it was a loose connection on the battery and fixed it. I drove it home and did the same exact thing. I guess I need to run it back. They said there were no faults. Im guessing they erased them and never came back for them. They test drove it three times with no issues. This was my only guess.

I would take it back to them and leave it for a bit and let it act up on them..J

I had that, it was a failing brake switch, wouldn't go into gear until battery was unplugged and reconnected. The brake lights still worked though.... It's a 4 pin setup and two pins go to the F1 system but like Jason said, let the dealership figure it out. A brake switch from Ferrari will fit around $35 also so it may be a cheap fix....

Man that would be Christmas! Thanks Euro! Thsnks for the FYI

That would set a fault...So I love the idea, but you'll often go down the wrong path if you don't read the faults first...What fixed one car isn't gonna necessarily fix yours so keep that in mind..Jason

 

[MaseratiTrendt]

Yep - I will deff have them dig into it first. Thanks Jason!

Agreed, mine didn't throw an f1 light but I did find it when scanning on my launch x431.... Dealer should be able to resolve as you said. Thanks Jason

If your car is throwing a fault on the dash, there is a 100% chance that there is a code to pull from the TCU.

If the shop is telling you it is a loose wire, ask them what the code is that they read from the TCU otherwise it sounds to me like they're just guessing.

I agree - I did schedule a return visit next week to scan to see what codes its thrown. Thank You
