tranny shift cable

Posted By: camaro91 On: 04-30-2008 @ 15:48:06         Reply | Edit
well as some of you saw, i fubarbed up my door. well i went to replace the shift cable and its all hooked up and i noticed when i put it in park, the tranny knows park but the pawl doesn't set. and i also noticed that the shifter itself wont set in all the gear markings on the trim. when the tranny is in OD the shifter can move freely between OD and N. just wonderin how to fix the actual shifter so it says the right gear and how to fix the tranny so it will set in park?

the shifter should freely shift between neutral and over drive. just like if you put it in first, it will freely shift from first to neutral but will not shift back down without pushing the button.

The shift arm on the side of the trans has some adjustment room
Just dont forget to tighten the nut back up

I assume this coming loose caused your problem
