Shift Cable Adjuster Locking Clip

Hybrid Vehicle Notice
Remove the generator control module cover to gain access to the transmission shifter cable. Refer to Generator Control Module Cover Replacement in SI.

1. Open the hood and locate the transmission shift cable.
2. Determine if the transmission shift cable locking tabs are fractured and separated.




- If the transmission shift cable locking tabs (1) are fractured and separated (A), remove the transmission shift cable and replace it with a new one. Refer to Floor Shift Control Cable Replacement or Range Selector Lever Cable Replacement in SI. No further action is required after replacing the transmission shift cable. DO NOT install a transmission shift cable kit.
- If the transmission shift cable locking tabs (2) are NOT fractured and separated (B), install the transmission shift cable kit. Proceed to Step 3.

3. Install the clam shell (1) (2) over the shifter cable locking tabs.
4. Install the service clamp over the clam shell (3). Position the clamp fastener head away from the inlet coolant hose (4). Tighten the clamp to 4 Nm(35 lb-in).
5. Ensure that there is 15 mm (19/32 in) of clearance between the inlet coolant hose (4) and the clam shell (3). On hybrid equipped vehicles, it may be necessary to reposition the inlet coolant hose (4) to achieve the required 15 mm (19/32 in) of clearance. To reposition the inlet coolant hose (4) on hybrid equipped vehicles, locate the heater cooler pump (5) and perform Steps 5.1-5.4.

Caution
Do not kink or damage the inlet coolant hose (4) when repositioning the hose to obtain the 15 mm (19/32 in) clearance. To avoid damaging the hose clamp, use J-38185 or equivalent hose clamp pliers to loosen the hose clamp.

1. Using J-38185 or equivalent hose clamp pliers, loosen the inlet coolant hose (4) connected to the heater cooler pump (5). Note the location of the clamp on the inlet coolant hose (4).
2. Rotate the inlet coolant hose (4) clockwise until 15 mm (19/32 in) of clearance between the inlet coolant hose (4) and clam shell (3) is achieved.
3. Ensure that the inlet coolant hose clamp is secure on the inlet coolant hose (4) in the production location.
4. Install the generator control module cover. Refer to Generator Control Module Cover Replacement in SI.

6. Close the hood.
