When replacing a control assembly (Figure 1) on a 1989 Galant, make sure the mode control cable in the new assembly has a brown sheath. If it does not, replace the mode control cable with a brown one. The easiest way to determine which cable is the mode control cable is to turn the mode control knob back and forth and observe which cable moves (Figure 2).


CABLE REPLACEMENT

Follow the cable replacement instructions in the 1989-1991 Galant Service Manual beginning on Page 55-25.
