Transmission linkage not working

Good afternoon.

It sounds like the cable from the shifter has failed. It may be broken inside the casing.

10. Remove the automatic trans-axle range selector cable through the hole in the cowl.

Replaced bushings both ends now working fine in that area. Now have new problem. When trying to crank with ignition switch will not turn over. Jump starter, will crank but idles fast and transmission does not shift until very high engine rpm.

It sounds like you need to adjust the neutral safety switch which is right under where the cable mounts on the transmission.

Tools Required
- J 41545 Park/Neutral Switch Alignment Tool

If a new PNP switch has been rotated and the pin is broken or if you are installing an old PNP switch, adjust the PNP switch.
1. Place the shift selector shaft into Neutral.
2. Use the J 41545 in order to align the slots of the PNP switch to the Neutral position.
3. Align the flats of the shift shaft to the flats in the PNP switch.
4. Install the PNP switch to the transaxle.

Important: If the PNP switch bolt holes do not align with the threaded holes in the transaxle, verify that the shaft is in the Neutral position.

5. Assemble the PNP switch bolts loosely.
