This document is a screenshot of a page from a Ford Technical Service Publications electronic service manual (file SPH75009.GUI) showing part of a shift control cable removal procedure for a vehicle with a transaxle. Six numbered steps are visible: removing the console and shifter assembly, pulling back the carpeting, removing the cable bracket-to-dash panel retaining screw, disengaging the rubber grommet from the floorpan by pushing it toward the passenger compartment, removing the retaining nut and control cable assembly from the transaxle lever, and removing the cable retaining clip from the cable bracket on the transaxle. A line-art illustration (figure D5892-B) shows the cable installation at the dash panel with labeled components: bracket retaining screws N610936-S2 (2 required), cable retaining bracket 7K403, shift control cable assembly 7E395, and the dash panel. The page gives readers the disassembly sequence and the Ford base part numbers for the shift cable and its retaining hardware. It was uploaded as page one of a two-part set ("sho cable.jpg" and "sho cable2.jpg") associated with a 1993 Ford Taurus SHO shift cable replacement.
