Cable Adjustment Procedure
Caution: Refer to Automatic Transmission Range Selector Cable Caution in the Preface section.
Notice: Adjust the automatic transaxle range selector cable while
the transaxle and while the gear selector are in the Neutral position only.
Failure to do so may cause mis-adjustment.
- Set the parking brake.
- Block the wheels.
- Disconnect the shift cables at both ends with the system in Neutral.
Notice: Do NOT attempt to separate the metal couplings. Replace both cable pieces
if the metal couplings are separated. Both of the cable section
will be damaged if the two metal couplings are disconnected.
- Push up to the adjustment position to release the adjuster until the
cable housings separate.
- Depress the adjuster clip
once. This mobilizes the adjuster housing toward the transaxle end fitting.
- Line up the end fittings so they slide together until you feel
the parts cam together and lock.
- Depress the adjuster clip
completely. This locks the cable into its adjusted service position.
- Pull the conduit in the opposite direction to assure full system
adjustment of the shift cable.
Important: The horseshoe clip with the tab is flush when fully engaged.
- Ensure the conduit is fully engaged.
- The horseshoe clip with the tab is not flush when not fully engaged.
- Install the shift cable retainer and the wiring harness clip or
wiring harness strap.
