I have noticed that it was becoming very hard to have my indicator show that I was in park. Either it will go into park and show reverse or not go into park at all. Now I've noticed the gear shifter will move rather freely without changing into any gears. If I put the shifter all the way down and back up it will catch sometimes but will not go into park. I tried to adjust the cable but it does not change anything. Could the electronic part of the adjuster on the cable be stripped or something? Thanks!

Have somebody work the shifter back and forth while you inspect the linkage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. bigmike6117 User Sep 5, 2011, 2:13 PM Post #3 of 3 (1647 views) Re: '02 Dakota shifting issues Sign In Well I took it to a shop yesterday and they told me that the cable is actually fraying pretty bad. I looked once I got it home and didn't see any fraying because the line is covered in a sleeve. I'm not doubting him because what he is saying makes sense I guess I just wish I could see what he saw.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
