• Q: How to Service and Repair a Shift Cable on 2007 Mercury Mariner?

  A: Start the gearshift cable service and repair process by taking out the restraints control module (RCM) together with the floor console. Detach the gearshift cables from the transmission through a method which involves lifting them from their bracket and disconnection from the transaxle gearshift control assembly. The gearshift cable servicing process begins by taking off the two gearshift cable clips followed by disconnecting the two gearshift cables from the gearshift lever to remove the cables together with their two grommet nuts. The grommet arrow needs to point toward the down position when you insert the gearshift cables into the dash panel area. After connecting the select cable with the gearshift cable you must install the two gearshift cable grommet nuts while tightening them to 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.). Check that each clip fully fits the groove area within the cable adapter and only then start the installation process. The transaxle gearshift control assembly reception requires connecting gearshift cables followed by cable adjustment and performing the floor console and RCM reinstallation.
