Re: Ground locations?

Had the same thing happen to me but at the other end.

I was sitting at the bank drive through with the motor running. Bank can be slow at times and it took a while. Got done finally and went to put it in gear and the shifter felt like mush. Wouldn't hardly do anything. I got it home though and the cable looked similar to yours but it was melted on the end with the grommet on it. Turns out I had a slight exhaust leak before the 02 on that side and the PCM was throwing gas to it at idle and getting that side of the exhaust really hot. I found a used OE cable on ebay (30.00 TMD)and wrapped it with heat shield tape. So far so good. Of course I fixed the exhaust leak too. So check your fuel trim on that side and make sure they aren't on the high side on that side. I used that sticky back heat tape to wrap the cable with. Good luck!

Another thing, try to find a OE cable if you can. The aftermarket ones are junk.
