Shift Cable: Adjustments




Range Selector Lever Cable Adjustment

Note: Adjust the automatic transmission range selector cable while the transmission and the gear selector are in the Park position only. Failure to do so may cause mis-adjustment.

1. Set the park brake and chock the wheels.
2. Verify the transmission range select lever is in the park position.
3. Verify the transmission manual shift lever is in the park position.




4. If installing a new cable, skip this step and go to the next step. Pull the retaining collar (1) forward, then release the range select cable adjuster clip (2) by pushing up on the adjuster clip from the underside. Depress the adjuster clip (2) locking the adjuster clip completely.
5. Ensure that the cable adjuster is secured.
6. Check the transmission range select lever in all gear selections for proper operation.
