Since I have had my 96 LXs shift assembly on the side of the trans apart, it has not been right.
It wont go fully into park, it wont go into 1st, I have to rock the shifter back and forth to actually select the desired gear, but the car believes that what I select is correct.
If I put the car in park, itll start. But youll hear the transmission grinding against the parking paw since its not fully selected.
If I put the car in neutral, itll start. But the wheels will turn forwards or backwards. Depends on where I shifted from.
I have no idea what ive done wrong. Ive tried adjusting the cable half a dozen times and nothing has fixed the issue.
Any tips, past experiences, or procedures on how to properly align everything would be awesome.
