Shift Indicator cable
Can I replace the shift indicator cable? Mine wasn't quite right so I took the cover off the column to adjust it. After a quick adjustment it seemed to work better, but was not working 100%. It looks like the sheathing on the cable broke, and someone tried to repair it with electrical tape. I put it all back together and tested it and it seemed to work better, but not perfect. Then on a short trip to the farm supply I shifted into D and I heard a loud crack, now the indicator doesn't move.
I can head to a junkyard if I have to.....

They had 9 yesterday, listed on their website, PartsVoice.com & rearcounter.com
So, either people bought them all, or they hadn't updated their inventory on these 3 sites.
Green Sales usually updates their inventory every day.
