For 1990-2009 cars

1. Using an adjustable wrench on the manual shaft detent lever (710), turn the shaft clockwise until it stops.
2. Turn the shaft counterclockwise one position to the neutral location. To verify turning the shaft in the correct direction, on the manual shaft detent lever (710) the reverse position is larger and more resistance can be felt.
3. Inspect the condition of the connector pins on the wiring harness assembly (33) for foreign material, bent pins, or broken pins.
4. Ensure the TCM seal (72) is installed.
5. Turn the slot in the TCM to align the two marks. Do not turn more than 60 degrees.
6. Install the TCM (75) over the manual shaft detent lever (710) and into the wire connector.

Caution: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

7. Install the three bolts (76). Tighten the TCM bolts to 25 N·m (18 lb ft).
