Honda Ridgeline Shift Cable
Honda Ridgeline Shift Cable connects the cab-mounted shifter to the transmission so that the driver can confidently and safely pick gears. Early Ridgeline trucks were powered by a stout mechanical cable (the Shift Cable) from a steering column lever through to the gearbox, which was a relatively simple system with hand movement translated into precise movement at the manual lever on the case. As the interior layouts changed, the later models with bucket seats switched to a console mounted shifter which still applied a robust Shift Cable but routed it beneath the floor rather than down the column, freeing up space near the wheel. The recent generation has the advantage of an updated Shift Cable with electronic interlock switches which hold the selector in Park until the brake pedal is pressed, adding another level of security without sacrificing the familiar feel of the cable. Routine inspection of the Shift Cable path is easy for any Honda owner and helps to prevent stretch, fray, or binding which might dull the Ridgeline responses and ultimately extends the component life that makes Honda components so long lasting and preserves the spirited character for which the Honda Ridgeline is known.

Honda Ridgeline Shift Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to replace the shift cable on Honda Ridgeline?A: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.
