The ATP Automatic Transmission Shifter Cable (P/N Y-791) is a transhift cable that connects the shifter/selector lever to the transmission linkage, translating your gear selection into mechanical movement at the transmission. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2003 Ford F-150, 1998-1999 Ford F-250, 2000-2002 Ford Expedition, 2000-2003 Lincoln Navigator, and 2002 Lincoln Blackwood (All engines). Over time an original cable can bind, break, or turn sluggish; if a worn cable is the cause of vague, sticky, or misaligned shifting, this replaces it.
Installation note: a broken or missing ground strap can cause a new cable to fail, so inspect it during the job (Pioneer offers a ground strap under number CA-756). Manufacturer part number Y-791.
