• Q: How to replace the floor shift cable transmission control select on 2006 Toyota Camry?

  A: The first step in floor shift cable transmission control select replacement consists of removing the instrument panel safety pad sub-assembly with the air conditioning radiator assembly and air bag sensor assembly center. To detach the floor shift cable start by uninstalling the clip accompanied by the washer which splits the select cable top from the transaxle followed by removal of both the clip and select cable from the control cable bracket. Begin by using the lock to break the select cable-free from the shift lever retainer followed by removing the clip to detach the cable top from the assembly and removing the 2 retainer set bolts from the floor. First disconnect the retainer from the grommet and take out the select cable from the grommet before pulling the select cable through the floor hole and retainer opening. The installation requires you to put the select cable inside the floor hole then retainer followed by attaching it to the grommet while verifying all 3 grommet projections fit into the 3 holes of the retainer. Connect the select cable to the shift lever retainer ensuring the projecting part of the cable outer faces up while making sure the cable outer lock extends from point A according to the illustration. Install the two retainer set bolts with a torque of 5.0 Nm (51 kgf-cm, 44 inch lbs.). Set the select cable top to the shift lever assembly then place the clip which has its serrated point facing upward toward the insertion point. To finish the procedure first connect the select cable to the control cable bracket by using a new clip before installing the cable to the transaxle while placing both a clip and washer in position. Replace the air bag sensor center and air conditioning radiator units as well as the instrument panel safety pad sub-assembly before checking the SRS warning light.
