Honda 54315-SLN-A82 Control Wire

Place the shifter in Park and detach the shift cable from the shifter assembly. Remove any exhaust or heat shields to allow access to the shift cable from under the vehicle. Working from under the vehicle, remove the two nuts and shift cable bracket, dislodging the grommet from the floor pan, then pull the shift cable out. Remove the shift cable cover mounting bolts from the side of the transaxle and the two shift cable bracket bolts. Bend the lock washer tabs away from the cable-to-selector lever bolt and remove the bolt, ensuring the lock washer is not lost. Detach the cable from the selector lever and remove the cable from the vehicle, including the bracket. Installation is the reverse of removal, bending the lock washer tabs up against the bolt after installation and adjusting the cable. Place the shift lever in the "N" position and remove the center console if not already done. Remove the nut and shift cable from the shifter assembly pivot, twisting the cable fitting so the tab is at the top before pulling the cable from the shifter bracket. Turn the ignition on and move the shift cable until Neutral "N" is displayed on the instrument cluster. With the shifter lever in "N", insert a 1/4-inch (6 mm) drill bit into the alignment holes to set the correct Neutral position. Install the shift cable into the bracket and onto the shifter assembly pivot, ensuring the pivot is squared up with the shift cable hole, then install and securely tighten the nut. Remove the drill bit and verify that the correct gear position is displayed, matching the shift lever, and that the engine can be started in Park and Neutral only.
