F150 - Shift Indicator Busted!

In my haste to remove the cab previously for the full cab swap, I damaged the shifter indicator by not disconnecting the cable. I install a replacement. I included a product link to the item I purchased below. This is an affiliate link and I will receive a small commission if you purchase the item.

I heard that.... Thanks for watching 👍😁

[@rapturebound197]

👍 another fine repair!

[@FlatThunder]

Thanks! I wish I didn't break the original, but sometimes it happens. Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

Those speed cables on those are always a pain in the butt to unhook. Hardly ever any extra cable length to pull the dash cluster out enough to be able to squeeze it hard enough to remove

[@FlatThunder]

They can be a struggle with the limited space.....I didn't show it, but it took 3 different angles on the cluster to find the best position to fit my big mitt in there. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

This truck has a C6 transmission, but this technique also works for those with an AOD transmission.

[@FlatThunder]

It is a C6! Thanks for sharing 👍😁

That is properly called a flem flam thingy majig .. and they are hard to find.. especially when you ask for them by name..

[@FlatThunder]

Haha yes! Thanks for watching! 👍😁

I’d invest in some contact cleaner WD-40 makes it now or just order aftermarket off Amazon,, but any and all point to point contact on electrical I would definitely hit it with the contact cleaner, and any and all mechanical contact id lithium grease those while apart and doth those done it’ll be as new when back together.. won’t have to be chasing down short circuit later.. you’ll be enjoying your finished project..

[@FlatThunder]

Good idea! I usually have a can of CRC branded contact cleaner on hand (literally every time I use it).....I need to investigate the electrical plug connection further. It was giving me issues at the connection point.... Thanks for watching! 👍😁

Why fix the original when the new one works?

[@FlatThunder]

While it works, it was slightly different than the original and the quality was a little suspect. I just bagged the old pieces and probably will roll with the new one unless it gives me issues. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

Next time buy a 5 speed manual😂😂😂

[@FlatThunder]

I heard that.....I prefer the heavy duty 4 speed, but this one will always be an auto..... It's nostalgic for me! Thanks for watching! 👍😁
