  Q: How to replace the shift cable on Cadillac SRX?

  A: The first step to replace the Shift Cable requires setting the park brake and chocking the wheels. The transmission shift cable terminal must first be detached from the transmission manual shift lever pin so you can slide the retainer backward to free the cable from its bracket. The front floor console extension needs removal before disconnection of the transmission shift cable retainers from the support bracket. The floor panel grommet and cable assembly should come out allowing the transmission shift cable retainer to advance forward before extracting the cable from the transmission control base. Disconnect the transmission shift cable terminal from the shift lever pin then eliminate the cable from the vehicle. The terminal end of the new transmission shift cable needs to connect to the shift lever pin during installation. After inserting the cable into the transmission control base users should slide the retainer towards the rear until it locks the cable into position and verify that the grommet shows the paint dot at the top. The floor panel receives installation of the grommet combined with cable assembly followed by retainer attachment to the support bracket then the front floor console extension can be reinstalled. The transmission shift cable terminal needs connection to the transmission manual shift lever pin before installation into the bracket. Afterward, move the retainer forward to secure the cable while making necessary length adjustments.
