To remove the shift cable, first disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery and place the shifter in First gear. Next, remove the front and rear console pad assemblies, the shift plate assembly, and the console support assembly. Then, take out the four bolts securing the Electronic Control Module (ECM) to the rear bulkhead of the passenger compartment and set the ECM aside. Disconnect the ECM wire harness connector routed across the console, ensuring to disconnect the connector that lays on top of the console assembly. Remove the four bolts from the ECM's plastic mounting bracket and detach the bracket. Disconnect the cable from the shifter pin by removing the clip, and then remove the large C-clip from the cable bracket behind the shifter, lifting the large plastic cable ferrule out of the bracket. In the engine compartment, disconnect the cable from the transaxle shift linkage by removing the nuts and washers from the slotted linkage levers and the bolt from the support bracket. Remove the shift cable bracket bolt, split the bracket halves, and take out the cable. In the passenger compartment, pry the rubber grommet from its hole in the bulkhead between the seats and pull the shift cable forward through the bulkhead. For installation, thread the new shift cable through the hole in the bulkhead from the passenger compartment side, ensuring the rubber grommet is properly seated with the wider flange facing forward. Position the new cable in the yoke of the shift cable bracket, install the other bracket half, and secure it with the bracket bolt. Connect the cable to the transaxle shift linkage without adjusting it at this time. In the passenger compartment, install the large plastic ferrule into the bracket behind the shifter assembly and lock it in place with the large C-clip. Install the cable onto the shifter pin and secure it with the clip. Reinstall the plastic support bracket for the ECM and tighten the four bolts securely. Plug the large electrical connector routed across the console into the ECM, place the ECM in position in its support bracket, and tighten the four mounting bolts securely. Finally, reinstall the console support assembly, front and rear console pads, radio, heater/air conditioner assemblies, and trim plate, adjust and tighten the shift cable, and reconnect the cable to the negative terminal of the battery.

With no load applied, snap the cable connector lock button down, place the shift lever in the Park position, and turn the ignition key to the Lock position.
