Honda 54315-SJC-A81 Control Wire

For Honda cars from 2006 onward, before starting, apply the parking brake, block the back wheels, take off the negative battery cable, and put it aside. Put the car's steering column covers aside and position the gearshift knob to sit in Neutral. Loosen the locking nut at the cable adjuster, turn the grommet counterclockwise by 1/4 turn, push the grommet and cable off the bracket. Start by taking out the the air intake duct, air filter housing, then remove the battery and its tray. Release the shift cable from the transaxle by removing two bracket nuts and then extracting the end from the lever by taking out a spring clip, washer, and control pin. Pull the shift cable through the firewall by undoing the guide bracket nuts, detaching the rubber grommet, and removing the nuts. Reinstalling the cable comes back full circle - all you need to do is adjust it when you put it back where it goes to the lever on the transmission. To adjust the cable correctly, first set your shift lever to Neutral. Take off the locknut, detach the cable end from its mounting bracket, then do the same for the other end. Turn the shaft forward until it gets completely engaged. Then, back off the handle twice to finish setting it up in Neutral. Insert a 15/64 inch pin into the bracket base hole, place the shift lever in position, and guide the pin through the shift lever's hole to keep it from moving. Put the cable end of the shift cable into its bracket slot. Join the other end to the bolt that holds the shift lever. Make sure the square piece of the cable fits against the metal casting on the bolt. After putting on the locknut, pull out the pin, switch on the engine, and use the shift lever in all gears. Fix the Transmission Range switch if the engine won't start or behaves incorrectly by checking the adjustment.
