Help your automatic transmission get the downshift signal it needs when you press the throttle toward the floor with the Pioneer Automatic Transmission Detent Cable CA-1950. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1972-1976 Buick LeSabre, 1972-1975 Chevrolet Impala, 1973-1976 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme and 1972-1976 Pontiac LeMans.

The detent cable links the throttle linkage to the transmission's detent (downshift) mechanism, so pedal position can call for a forced downshift. Pioneer builds its cables as a high-quality replacement alternative:

  • Built to OE specs: made to original-equipment specifications.
  • Steel inner cable: a durable steel core carries throttle movement to the transmission.
  • Polymer outer housing: helps shield the inner cable from corrosion and abrasion.

Signs this part may need replacing: no forced downshift when the pedal is floored, or a frayed, kinked, binding or broken cable. Shift complaints can have other causes, so diagnose the transmission before replacing parts.
