Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion
Could be the cables need to be adjusted if they unknowingly changed length when you put them back in.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

hi all my shortshift kit is installed and the reverse doesnt seem to enter in position. anyone know why or anything to look at? thanks rennlist

POST 2Original post

Did you mark the cables with a black marker before you removed them from the unit? Could be the cables need to be adjusted if they unknowingly changed length when you put them back in. Might want to check that.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

yes i did, that's the thing i dont understand, i marked them and put them back in, but it just doesnt want to go far left to engage reverse...

POST 4Original post

You may want to make a cable adjustment then to see if that corrects your issue with reverse.

+1.... just be methodical when you adjust them and testing each gear before buttoning up.

POST 6Original post

What kind of SSK? If it's the 997 type that comes with the whole shifter tower, marking the cable is not the best way. It should come with a plastic centering piece that locks the shifter so the cables just connect wherever they fall into. If it's the B&M type, then marking the cables should work.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
