Question 1

How to replace the Automatic Transmission Shifter lever on Cadillac DeVille?

Accepted Answer

The first step to replace an automatic transmission shift lever requires sir system deactivation. Use sliding motion to move the shift lever seal upward through the shift lever. And if needed, remove each steering column trim covering. Separate the shift lever connector working at the column base before you take off the shift lever screw from the shift lever assembly. First pull out the shift lever along with its seal from the linear shift assembly but make sure you extract the shift lever seal by pushing it down towards the narrow segment of the shift lever. Put the shift lever seal on the minimal end of the shift lever before joining the shift lever assembly to the linear shift assembly. The installation of shift lever screw into the shift lever assembly requires a tightening force of 1.5 nm (13 in. Lbs.). Move the shift lever seal down the shift lever assembly until it matches the position of the steering column trim covers. The sir system should be activated only after reattaching steering column trim covers.

How to replace the Automatic Transmission Shifter on Cadillac Eldorado?

Accepted Answer

Start the replacement of the shift control by removing the console trim plate followed by unsnapping the shift cable terminal from the shifter pin. The automatic transmission shift lock actuator solenoid wire harness connector needs to be disconnected before you take out the shifter assembly by removing its fasteners. Set the shifter assembly into the console then fasten the shift pieces while torquing them to 9 Nm (79 inch lbs.). Install the console trim plate once you have connected the automatic transmission shift lock solenoid wire harness connector to the shifter control and properly placed the shift cable onto the shifter control.

Question 3

How to service and repair the Automatic Transmission Shifter on Cadillac Seville?

Accepted Answer

The first step in shifter A/T repair and service should start with gathering the specific tool J 43146 Tamper Proof Bit (J 43146). Proceed with the removal of console trim plates beginning with the one on the console and the one on the left side. Use the J 43146 tamper proof bit to remove the anti-theft plate along with the tamper proof fastener from the shifter when the vehicle carries RPO Code (T1A). The beginning of the shifter A/T service and repair process involves unfastening the shift cable terminal from the shifter pin and taking out the shift cable bolt with its wire from the shifter followed by unlinking the BTSI wire harness connector from the BTSI solenoid. The locking tab on the cable park lock needs to be released before lifting the cable away from the slot in the shifter and removing it from the park lock cam of the shifter. Remove the shifter fasteners by disconnecting the wire harness connector for the backlight function. The shifter assembly will become accessible after separating the console side panels. The installation process requires you to spread the console side panels again before installing the shifter assembly while securing each shifter fastener at 9 Nm (79 inch lbs.). The shifter backlight wire harness connector should be connected and then the park lock cable must be inserted into the park lock cam located on the shifter before sliding the park lock cable into the shifter while ensuring the cable locking tab stays fully engaged. Join the BTSI solenoid wire harness connector then snap the shift cable terminal on the shifter pin before fastening the shift cable to the shifter while tightening the fastener to 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.). The shift cable adjustment requires putting the shifter into the N position followed by unfastening and then re-tightening the adjuster nut to 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.). Users with T1A RPO Code need to install the anti-theft plate and tamper proof fastener on the shifter through the usage of J 43146 tamper proof bit. Finish by adding the console trim plate from the left side together with the other console plate.
