Of concern first is getting to the trans end of the shift cable.. This is
done by removing the protection bar under the oil pan, 7 bolts i do
believe.. THEN there is access to the dust/dirt protection cover, a thin
steel shield that covers
the area where the shift cable attaches to the transmission control
lever.. Once you can SEE the end of the shift cable that attaches to the
transmission it can easily be removed from the trans ctl lever by removing
a cotter pin .. Other end of shift cable is simple enough to remove,
without instructions here, after the shift console cover is removed
between the 2 front seats.. NOW, before doing ANY of the above you need to
read PART 1 of this fix.. It will help in verifying that your shift cable
IS WITH LITTLE DOUBT the cause for not being able to get trans out of
park.. MY 2 month ordeal with this problem was caused by not having the
info written above.. Hind sight is ALWAYS clearer once job is done.. I
have the genuine accord shop manual for this car but what i've noted above
is NOT presented anywhere in the manual in this detail.. I hope this saves
SOMEONE a little time in diagnosing a seized up shift cable... Part 1 will
pretty much verify whether you need to get
under the car or not..
