982 - 4.0 Liter Manual Transmission Cable UNCLAMPS At Transmission Housing Bracket: Condition

The customer complains the reverse, 1st, 3rd, or 5th gears do not engage; or the vehicle will not change gears despite a change in the position of the shift lever.

The workshop determines the shift cable's integrated clamp comes loose from its mounting bracket on the transmission's driver side. When this occurs, the cable is loose and shifting is not possible.
