Replace a stretched, frayed or binding detent cable with the Pioneer Automotive Industries Automatic Transmission Detent Cable, part number CA-2066. It is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1992 Chevrolet Astro, 1992 Chevrolet S10 Blazer and 1992 GMC Jimmy. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine-level details.
The detent cable links the throttle to the automatic transmission's detent (kickdown) mechanism. It passes throttle movement to the transmission, which uses it for downshift and shift timing. Pioneer builds its cables as a quality replacement alternative, made to OE specs.
- Steel inner cable: a durable steel core carries the pull from the throttle linkage to the transmission.
- Polymer outer housing: shields the inner cable from corrosion and abrasion.
- Built to OE specs: manufactured to original-equipment specifications.
- Hardware where applicable: Pioneer cables often include common brackets, grommets and ends when the application calls for them.
Signs a detent cable may need replacing include delayed or harsh shifts, no kickdown under hard acceleration, and a kinked, frayed or sticking cable. Other transmission faults can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing the cable. Follow the vehicle service information for installation and adjustment.
