Thanks for this video. I just fixed my own truck and saved whatever the shop would have charged me PLUS $150+ for the tow.
Temporarily, I just have a wire running through the hole I drilled. Tomorrow I'll get the washer and cotter pin.
People like this that take the time to make these videos are heroes
Dorman part number 14055 the part is $8, Amazon $10, Autozone and $12 Orielys. It’s plastic bushing that’s it..
Same thing happened to mine today. I called the local dealer and they said this happens a lot with the Nissan Titans. They then told me that they do not sell the clip separate that I have to buy a whole new cable and I could use just the clip off of the new cable. Guys, the cable was $90...
so I hit TH-cam as I always do to find out my options. This is the type of fix I am going to do and was thinking on doing this anyway. Either this video way or maybe go to advance or auto zone and get the universal door window clip pack for $15..
I just wanted to stress how much those greedy dealerships rip everyone off! Haha
It wouldn’t have been so bad if the guy at the dealership hadn’t have said they keep a lot of those in stock because they sell a lot of them for that reason and kind of laughed under his breath about it.
Of course I gave him my two cents worth and told him there was no way I am paying $90 when all I needed was a clip and since they are the certified dealer it’s a shame they can’t stand behind their products and if it is defective give the customers a decent price.
Holy smokes! $90 bucks! That kind of stuff makes me question my brand loyalty? Just imagine what they would have charged to install that cable/clip? It gives us customers a great distaste for ever dealing with a dealer. Also, it is coming up on 2 years and my homemade fab job is still working.
Excellent video. Thanks for posting. Same thing happened to me today while I was out running errands. I used the emergency brake and shifted into drive manually to get home. Someone posted below about drilling through the shifter pin bracket. That's what I did. Drilled a small hole on each side of where the cable lands. I then used your idea of the #12 bare and ran over the cable and twisted together. The eye cannot come off the pin and the wire doesn't move so shouldn't wear. Price=free.
Thank you so much! I was stuck out doing errands and was able to follow your video and get the truck back home! You saved me! Thank you!!
Holy shit. Same thing happened to my ‘06 Titan today. Life saver. Thanks for posting the video!
Nice, top result easy to find, correct info, jives with parts advertisement for that eyelet/bush at end of cable. Symptoms fit. Will check. Thanks.
This is a great video really helped me
Nice work...as usual. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. I hope it will help someone save some $$.
Thank you! Just happened picking kids up from school.
Life saver, many thanks!
You just saved my ass thank you
JB QUIK USE TAPE ON ONE SIDE AFTER IT DRIES DRILL A 3/8 HOLE, DRILL A 1/16 IN THE STEM TO PUT IN A WASHER AND A PIN EITHER A WIRE OR COTTER PIN
use a GMC bushing for $8 at auto zone and shave it to fit or go to dealer and pay $300, and yes a 10mm you can also use a piece of rubber from a tire sidewall force fit it then drill a 3/8 hole
Master...!!!
Dorman Shift Cable Bushing part #14055
You are a wonderful human being and I hope the rest of your days are blessed. You just saved hours of my life. Want to double confirm for everyone else reading this part number fits (the small clear plastic bushing is the perfect size). You saved me my weekend.
Your god sent
That was better than factory. Maybe the plastic bushing just wore out or disappeared earlier. Clever fix I probably would have zip tied it awhile until doing what you did. Thanks.
One good jerry rig deserves another. HA
I didn't think about using a zip tie, thanks for your input.
Nice fix..
Thanks.
Thanks
My 06 armada looks nothing like that, I'm having the same problem but cant seem to find that arm
Your Armada has the shifter in the middle console... the same thing happens to those cables but it's a different procedure to get to it... the vehicle in this video has the shifter on the steering column... WWW.BUSHINGFIX.COM has the part you need.. I have a TITAN and a QX56 and both of them has this issue.. easy fix.... HOPE THIS HELPS..
Wonder if there was a ball on the end of that cable eye?
I probably should get a service manual for the truck... one day, lol.
way to save some money, i have to work on my shifter also.
That is the name of the game to save those dollars for other things!
The same problem happens to me and the part price is 90 and they sold the hole cable they don’t sale just the bushing and they charge 500 dollars just for the repair that plus the part fuck that this video save me like 600 dollars. Thanks
It amazes me that the stupid engineers who deigned this couldn't think of a better way to rig this piece...I just fixed mine today on my old 2008 nissan titan!
A Dollar Part a a Dealer??? 60 years ago, nuts and washers may have been a dollar. :-)
I bought a relay that goes in the IPDM and only paid @ $7 bucks for it from the Nissan dealer parts dept. You never know nowadays about the price.
