Thank you! Just successfully finished the job, and it works! BTW, thank you for showing us the actual failed section of cable! Super helpful to see. In my case, my 2001 Tahoe would not go into Park. Everything else worked, R,N,D,L2,L1, 4Hi, 4Lo. Turned out the shift cable just before the bellows and the trans selector lever had failed. There was a black plastic encasement cylinder piece that keeps the cable on the straight and narrow, and instead of being maybe 6 inches long, that junky plastic cylinder had broken off and the remaining stub was 2 inches long. The broken piece was about a foot away from the selector lever, just before the bellows. I thought I could just replace that half of the cable, but NOOOO.... the cable connectors were different on the original cable than on the replacement cable I got. So I had to replace both halves.
The heavy wire cable loom shown at 8:29 was not removable from my truck (unless I would have removed the steering column). I ended up mangling it up far beyond it's intended shape to get it out, then used this video as a guide for how to route the cable through it, and then unmangling it as best I could in the truck to to get it re-installed. It works. Thank you for the help.
I did my Dad's 2002 GMC 1500 yesterday and it wouldn't have gone nearly as well if it weren't for the video's I watched here on RUclips. Thank you Broncocarl92 for posting this awesome video.
Thanks for filming, good stuff! I have just bought an 02 yukon that has an extra shift cable standoff,(it looks like a thick coat hanger with some wild bends), that is right by the steering knuckle u joint that wasn't attached to anything on the bottom made the cable rub on the brake plunger rod going into the master cylinder I've looked all over to find a picture of how it goes,but no joy.
I'm pulling mine out now. I have everything loose but the spring support that wraps around the cable under the steering column. I was having trouble figuring out the bolt size, but you said 10mm so I will try that next. I was trying 1/2 in, 13 mm, and 7/16 but no dice. The old cable is worn and frayed just above the boot where it goes through the floor. I will keep on keepin' on. Thanks for the 10mm information. 🙂
Thanks for showing the rerouting of the trans cable. The last personal that replaced it put it in the wrong position hence so did we and the output shaft of the transfer case chewed it up. Now I have to replace it again.😒😒
Glad I’m not the only one who struggled with pulling the cable from behind the steering wheel. I forgot to remove the cable support bracket so the new one is free floating above the steering column....ooopps.
When I replaced my shift cable I rerouted the cable a different way under the dash. I made sure that it would not interfere with any moving parts. It was a lot easier that way. The one under the truck was easy lol. Mine cost me $85
The metal rod that you find behind the brake pedal an swirls is factory made. It's holds it in place as well as keeps it from twisting or binding, which cause it to break or kink in end if not used..
How do you adjust the length where the two cables meet? My 2001 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD will NOT go into park all the time and I cannot remove the key. I have to shift it in and out several times before I can take the key out. I have yet to find a video that shows this. Thanks.
From what I understand there is no "adjustment" at the center point, the springs that are there are to allow you to connect the two halves and then once released the cable is adjusted. If you are having problems I would say your cable is failing and needs to be replaced.
Broncocarl92 Thanks. I will try it tomorrow when the temperature is supposed to climb over 30° and the wind dies down. If that doesn't fix it, Can I assume that the cable might need replacement?
It is adjustable. Where the two cables meet. You pull back the white cover, lift up on that clip then you can adjust the cable length in or out, once set, you lo kit in place with the clip then put white cover back in place.
What happens if the cable isn't bad but this is still happening? I have a very loose gear selector like in your video, after checking the cable it's fine. My truck is stuck in drive. I can't start it.
My chevy 1500 04 is just running through all the gears like it loose its not grabbing any gears could it be just the shiter came loose and that would be my only problem ? Pls help
Really cause i can move the gears by hand if im down their the bracket in middle where its fits tight is loose like it has no staple holding it in their the wire is just hanging out so i think thats the problem i just cant fit it back in it needs a staple or something to hold it in place
I have a 2003 chevy 2500 2wd 6.0l with 127k and it had a rough idle and was slipping in first and would stall sometimes. I fixed the idle by cleaning out my throttle body and maf sensor. Than took it on a test drive, now i have no slipping in first. But i lost reverse and it drives in nuetral. I have done nothing to transmission only fixed the idle. I have zero codes popping up, and im at a complete loss of what could have happened. Any ideas would be appreciated
@@Broncocarl92Not currently, just a check engine one that pops no codes. I do have a foxwell nt6244 that should be here on the 23rd that is supposed to be a all systems reader. It starts in park and neutral and reverse lights come on when in reverse but it does reverse it almost want to go forward but doesnt. Although nuetral is like drive and it almost even wants to lung in park but doesn't. After i fixed the idle though it doesnt slip in forward gears anymore.
Amazing video thank you, but the shifter still does same thing like in your video, the wires that connect together, arent connecting right for some reason and i cant push down ther clip all the way
When I removed the 10mm bolt from what looks like a pig's tail I put a slot in the tip so once I started it back I could use a screwdriver from the front so much easier
If you have part number as few are different they cost 38 thru 50 on Amazon I paid $39 total for mine they cost $185 at most auto parts stores. And yes they made by same company so save money
Ray Laux LMAO.. That wiring actually goes through the door opening to the battery! I refused to reconnect it after I got the trans back in the truck. Also offered to make it right.. he didn't want to spend the money. Thanks for watching and the comment.
Everybody is ruining the bracket on the steering column if you take the Vault out if in route to cable through their easier without breaking it cable back into the bracket properly it is a little difficult main thing is don't use a Pioneer products cable ATP and Pioneer are the same company the cables are sloppy you will have at least a half a year of slop in the cable if you use their product by an ACDelco or you'll be sorry

EXCELLENT Work My Friend !!, you just saved me alot of $$, because my family wants me to get a new truck but I like my old one just fine !
Great video Carl . Also I like how you took your time to show us exactly how to route the trans cable, thank you for showing us step by step slowly.
Except how to get that darn wire back in . Lol that's what I gotta do.
Thank you for the video. I have to do this job today and now I know how to do it

Not sure.. perhaps you could cruise local pick and pull and maybe find one similar?

THANK YOU CARL. NOW I WILL BE ABLE TO DRIVE. ...WHEN THE SNOW IS GONE. LOL. GREAT SHOW BUD
What size cable do i need for a 99 1500 silverado
Your a patient man
How do you get the metal wire out of the steering column
Thanks for the video man, helped me out big time

You skip the hard part wich is that support cable in the steering mount

Mark Dodge Do you have a scan tool that would tell you what gear the transmission is in?

@@Broncocarl92 so my new scan tool came in. And it reading that i am in first gear in every gear. From park to reverse and nuetral and all drive gears
Great video Carl, Lee-Fla
Muy bueno video Gracias Amigo ....!!!!
can you hand shift the truck?
How did you get that wired metal wire out?
Cool channel, man.
Thanks a lot I'm digging yours too!
@@Broncocarl92 how much cost to do the whole job?
Amazing video thank you, but the shifter still does same thing like in your video, the wires that connect together, arent connecting right for some reason and i cant push down ther clip all the way
Was it really difficult to change? And would it be the same for a 2011 Chevy Silverado?
That was interesting! Nice job Carl!
Rick Anderson TY
I don’t know if you can call that aftermarket wiring. Looks more like a Jerry rig for something.
When I removed the 10mm bolt from what looks like a pig's tail I put a slot in the tip so once I started it back I could use a screwdriver from the front so much easier
Good one - but I had to fight it more than you... PITA. Anyway, thanks - big help.
good job that helps me
Thanks for the video, very helpful.
Great Video Carl. Very informative. How did you learn to rebuild transmissions? Are you ASE certified?
If you have part number as few are different they cost 38 thru 50 on Amazon I paid $39 total for mine they cost $185 at most auto parts stores. And yes they made by same company so save money
Thank you
Changed mine today. This stupid peice of bent up wire did not go back in.
Got to admire the BS wiring coming from the fuse pnl assess area.
Ray Laux LMAO.. That wiring actually goes through the door opening to the battery! I refused to reconnect it after I got the trans back in the truck. Also offered to make it right.. he didn't want to spend the money. Thanks for watching and the comment.
Fuck ya Carl fuck yea coming to you from the French alps
taking the clip apart is the hardest part & u didn't cover it
3:30. Yup it's definitely a Chevy. 🤣
Everybody is ruining the bracket on the steering column if you take the Vault out if in route to cable through their easier without breaking it cable back into the bracket properly it is a little difficult main thing is don't use a Pioneer products cable ATP and Pioneer are the same company the cables are sloppy you will have at least a half a year of slop in the cable if you use their product by an ACDelco or you'll be sorry
The cable clearly has been twisted to hell for that to happen
100 percent correct. That's why people who aren't mechanically inclined shouldn't try to be a mechanic. That truck was a mess.
@@Broncocarl92 Yeah I bet it was man, I watched your video because I'm about to do my own 04 silverado
Yeah mine definitely wasnt that easy😂
You missed reattaching the e-clip
Where?
it's called a poodle clip
speaker wire? whats going on here? scares me.
not my doing.
