I put in a new f40 trans. Before i put everything in i wanted to shift through the gears after connecting the cables and shifter to it but it wont go into any gear. Its like locked. Did i maybe connect something wrong?

Do you guys happen to know how the shifter cables go? Like if youre in the car, does the black one go on the right side and the white one on the left side where it connects to the shifter?

zeeky420

I know you got it right in engine bay but will have to check my car for interior

I'm thinking black on right sitting in seat white on left closest to you

Yeah i could find pictures of the cables on the transmission but not inside the shifter assembly. I just want to figure it out before i start putting the subframe and fusebox and everything back in. The way its set up it sounds like it engages 2 4 and 6th gear but not 1 3 and 5.

If you pulled pin you should be able to watch tower and see what it's doing

Thanks guys, it was black on right white on left. It all feels better now.
