Title: Keys Lost... Column Shifter
Post by: cougarXLS on August 06, 2008, 05:46:49 PM
Hi all,
 
We are trying to move one last car that won't run...
 
What's the best way to bypass the lockout on the column shifter so you don't need the key to put the car in neutral?

disconnect one of the linkages under the car, and move the lever on the side of the trans to neutral.

Thanks 32VFoxBird
 
I was hoping to see if there was a way to disconnect the lockout right on the column, but no biggie, I ended up doing exactly what you'd suggested.
 
Then we find the keys :hick:
LOL
