Re: How to install a transmission shift cable in a 2000...

1
Take the rubber boot off the gear shift inside the vehicle and lift it up, exposing the area where the gear shift and the transmission connect.
-
2
Look for the shift cable and the shifting arm. A single bolt and nut connect the shift cable and shift arm.
-
3
Twist the nut connecting the
gear shift and the transmission. Use a socket wrench and remove the gear
shift. Use an open-end wrench to loosen the nut holding the shift cable
and the shift arm together.

Slide off the sleeve on the
shift cable and loosen the shift cable at the other end with an open-end
wrench. Both ends of the shifting cable attach to the shifting arm in
different locations.

5
Hitch the new shift cable to the
2 anchor points on the shift arm using the same bolts and nuts.
Reconnect the gear shift to the transmission and push the rubber boot
back into place around the gear shift inside the car.

Test the functionality of the shifting cable by moving the gear shift in and out of gear.
