Had a senior get stuck at underground parking lot entrance due to this exact reason. Thanks for the vid for quick fix. These types videos mean a lot to folks that can google it up for quick for vs full tow cost. Appreciate it.
Thank you so much for this video. Totally worked 2005 Trailblazer in our case the shifter was locked. We left the car overnight in a mall parking lot. I watched your video at 1:30am. Next morning went to autozone paid $15.25 and drove home 5 minutes later. Thank you for sharing awesomeness.
Just got a call from my son in Phoenix (2017 trailblazer) , I'm in the UP of Michigan trying to explain this to him LOL , Love the video , hope this is his problem , thanks for the clear concise description on your video .
Man I appreciate any one who takes time to show someone how to do something on TH-cam but one minute you said, let’s get under it and next thing I know you were there. I have no idea how you got there so “I’m under it” right now trying to figure out where exactly I should be.
Sorry. Always a balance on video between accurate and detailed video, and making people sick with motion on camera. That movement was a bit much so I cut it out. It’s on the drivers side of the transmission and you should see the cable come and hook up.
Yes. I got the plastic part at Orillies. $18 bucks out the door. Well my 62yr old self got some cardboard, chalked the wheels, and for the first time in my life slid under a car. Lol. It took me about a hour because I had to cut wire off from a previous repair. I finally snapped it together in my hands to figure it out. Then a few more trys later and it snapped on! All one handed. Now daughter has a car again. Bless you
Not really. I did raise it up a little bit because, well, I'm a big guy and had a hard time fitting comfortably under there, and do so with a camera. But just replacing it quick, probably don't need to.

That's what I hope to do. Thanks for watching and for the kind words!

Wow, that's awesome. Well, I mean not awesome that it broke down, of course, but awesome you were able to fix it. So glad it helped!
Great video my brother. I was stuck in Wendy's parking lot. Ran up the road(literally) to Advanced auto and fixed it. Easy peasy. Thanks
Nice work!

Great video!! Thank you!!
(Fixed it with a cpl of zip ties 😁 because everything was closed on Easter Monday)
Zip ties, self-tappers, and JB Weld. Three most important tools for the backyard mechanic. Nice job "making it work"!
You are an absolute life saver. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks saved me big bucks
Im about to do it wish me luck
@@Passthevap how did it go? I have to do mine too.
Perfect! It's exactly what was wrong! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
That was the easiest repair job I'd ever done! 😅
Hope the garage I had my truck towed to knows about this 🤔
Mine will go into gear but it won't move.is there away that can be fixed without buying a new transmission
Are you sure it's going into gear? How do you know for sure? If it is, though, then yeah...sounds like at least a rebuild. Ugh..sorry.
Brother, what is the piece of this called? I can only see the name partly,
Shift what??
Shift Linkage Bushing. Link is in the description for it.
@@rhynosgarage ahh okay thanks
My shifter is in neutral I found it detached but can't connect it stuck
Thank you.
You're so welcome. Hope it was helpful.

What if my car goes into drive but not reverse? Same thing!?
Unfortunately no.
My car still shifts but wont go into gear.
Might be the transmission itself. ugh..good luck.
Did you have to Jack up the car to get to that piece?
Not really. I did raise it up a little bit because, well, I'm a big guy and had a hard time fitting comfortably under there, and do so with a camera. But just replacing it quick, probably don't need to.
What if it's stuck in reverse and I need it to be in park to crank it? Can it be pushed back into park by hand?
