• Q: How to replace the automatic transmission shift cable on 2004 Chevrolet SSR?

  A: The first step to replace the automatic transmission Shift Cable requires parking the vehicle then raising it before continuing. Before proceeding with the transmission shift lever ball stud, detach the end of the Shift Cable then take the retainer off the Shift Cable. After releasing the Shift Cable from its bracket you can pull the cable free from its retainer mechanism on the floor panel. Pass the cable grommet through the flooring before placing the vehicle back onto the ground. Detach the console followed by removing the cable end from the floor control ball stud before extracting the Shift Cable from the floor shift control assembly. The installation requires untying both the tape and grommet on the Shift Cable on the floor panel and removing the Shift Cable from the vehicle. When installing the cable workers should first push it down through the floor panel before installing the grommet followed by connecting the Shift Cable to the floor shift control assembly. Reinstall the console after connecting the Shift Cable end to the floor control ball stud. Hook the cable into the retainer position on the floor panel before you fasten the Shift Cable to its matching bracket. Afterward, mount the shift retainer to the cable. Connect the Shift Cable end to the transmission shift lever ball stud and then perform cable adjustment before lowering the vehicle then performing proper operation checks.
