Transmission reverse wave plate and snap ring broke. I went and replaced it but now the car doesn’t want to move. Checked all fluids and they are good now I’m just lost and have no clue what’s going on. I hope you can please help me. Thank you

Hello,

reverse wave plate? not sure what this is? Is the CV axle installed correctly? if the axle is not in all the way the car will not move. Here is a video of a clutch being done on a similar car that shows the CV axles being installed:

Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so we can see what's going on? that would be great. You can upload it here with your response.
