Re: Push Button probs

[Schuyler <schuyler62@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think the cable may need to be readjusted. the best way to do this  
is to remove the trans pan. I know it's kind of a pain but you will  
be able
to see exactly which way the cable needs to go to line up the  
mechanism. removing the pan takes away any guess work. and you will
be able to see how it works.
hope this helps
