Transaxle Range Selector Lever Cable Installation (New Only)
CAUTION: The automatic transaxle range selector lever cable is made out of two cable sections. After initial connection, never separate the two metal couplings from one another. Integrity of the connection of the two metal couplings will be lost if separation of the two metal couplings occurs. When servicing the transaxle, remove the cable at the automatic transaxle range selector lever and automatic transaxle range selector lever cable bracket. If either section of the cable needs to be replaced, replace both cable sections. Loss of connection integrity of the two metal couplings can cause loss of transaxle shift control which could result in personal injury.
INSTALL OR CONNECT
1. Set parking brake and block wheels.
2. Place transaxle and shift control in "Neutral" position.
3. Before connecting the two cable sections, connect each cable section to:
- The automatic transaxle range selector lever and shift cable bracket.
- The column or console shift control and retainer or wiring harness clip.
4. Insert the metal end fitting of the shift control cable into transaxle cable end and push together using the molded end fittings until the metal post snaps into place.
5. Depress the adjuster clip once. This will mobilize the adjuster housing toward the transaxle end fitting.
6. Line up the end fittings so they slide together and you will feel the parts cam together and lock.
7. Depress the adjuster clip completely. This will lock the cable into its adjusted service position.
8. Pull conduit in opposite direction to assure full system adjustment of shift cable.
9. Shift cable retainer and wiring harness clip or strap.
Important: Horseshoe clip with tab will be flush when fully engaged.
