  Q: How to replace the Automatic Transmission Shifter on Cadillac Seville?

  A: The first step for shift control replacement involves removing console trim plates followed by detaching the Shift Cable from the shifter pin with its terminal snapped off. Proceed by taking out the Shift Cable bolt and cable from the shifter then disconnect the automatic transmission shift lock actuator wire harness connector from the solenoid before you remove the locking tab from the park lock cable so it can be lifted out of the shifter slot. To extract the shifter assembly begin by removing the console trim plate and unsnapping the Shift Cable terminal from the shifter pin before removing the Shift Cable bolt and disconnecting the automatic transmission shift lock actuator wire harness connector from the solenoid while lifting out the park lock cable from its slot on the shifter. Unhook the park lock cable from the park lock cam followed by removing shifter fasteners to spread the console side panels apart for shifter assembly removal. The installation process requires users to spread console side panels while installing the shifter assembly but they need to follow fastener notice in service precautions. Screw shifter fasteners to 9 nm (79 inch lbs.) while inserting the park lock cable into the park lock cam before sliding it into the shifter as the cable locking tab should be fully engaged. The automatic transmission shift lock actuator wire harness connector needs attachment followed by terminal snapping onto the shifter pin and cable fastening to shifter assembly at 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). The Shift Cable should be adjusted while the shifter sits in n (neutral) by first loosening and then tightening the shifter adjuster nut to 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). The last step is to install the console trim plate.
