    Re: Cables backwards?

    Move the shifter side to side in neutral, the arm that moves at that time is for the cross-over cable. The cross-over cable points to the frt of the car at the trans. Has the ball socket on it. From there you can figure out the other cable. Hope this help.

    Re: Cables backwards?

    its just that the way i see it is if he thinks he put them in backwards why not take them out and put them in backwards to check? like theres only 4 ways they go in

    its like asking if my distributor is backwards and asking what to do about it

    Re: Cables backwards?

    ok lookie here sami did you get it fixed?

    try this disconnect both cables from the trans hook them both up to the shifter the cable on the drivers side of the shifter is the nuetral left and right the one on the passenger side is the in and out of gear selector the cable with the adjuster on it goes on the drivers side of the shifter

    now then
    with the cables disconected from the trans move the thing that they connect onto around there will be and in out that feels spring loaded like it bounces back and forth and probably using a twisting motion you can feel it click in and out of gear if this dont move you might be FFN

    then either bungie the sifter in the center (nuetral) either left or right and note which cable moves or have someone wiggle it and note which cable moves thats the cable that connects to the stud on the trans thing that activates the spring loaded motion then the other cable connects to the stud that has the click and stay motion then you are pretty much done assuming the cable is adjusted right

    there SHOULD be a trans writeup in the KC about adjusting the cable but im not gunna go into that

    i wish you luck and damn i must be related to emryl cuz i just knocked it up another nawtch

    Glad to see the there wasn't any real issues, as pertaining to earlier posts.
    Thank you for idea. I'll give it a shot.
    And btw, its "Kickin' it up a notch" is what Emeril says.
    Edit: I looked through the KC. I seen an article about the swap to a A555. But I didn't do the swap and am unsure as too exactly what parts he used for the whole thing.

    Update
    After several more attempts of BS. With the car refusing to give in and just be fixed...
    A Miracle!!! Stupid car finally gave in. Jumping the battery tomorrow and testing it out. See if I need to adjust the cables anymore.
    WOO! IMMD

    Talking Re: Cables backwards?

    I wasn't missing parts. The parts I had gotten (after several months of waiting, and searching for the right ones mind you) two months of Michigan weather to deal with, and several attempts at putting the cables in, and one way not working, another way, etc... For some reason, only making me believe the parts I had were wrong... Magicly worked today... I don't know why.

    It was like a child throwing a fit, and only now decided to cooperate... It was like... "Are you kidding me... Just that easy? ... SERIOUSLY!?!? ... *laugh* augh, you d*** car!" lol

    For what ever reason... Several months of frusteration ended today. Atleast momentarily. Since I'll be making sure it works tomorrow. Though it felt like all the gears shifted right. Though I had to make an adjustment in the cable for 5th. But w/e.
