DIY: ReWire AT Shifter to Reverse & Correct the +/- pattern (on selector stick)
Following up my post in the Automatic transmission selector details? Thread with a more indepth how-to quoting Trojan_SC's posts for the portions I didn't photo-document myself.
Follow this guide to swap the position of '+' and '-' position on the gear selector stick for the automatic transmission. This helped me because our other car (a mazda) has this set up opposite (ie: properly) compared to the FRS. Here we go...
Tip: Don't bother trying to test the shifter function before reassembly until you've reconnected the shifter-surround wiring... save yourself the panic... it wont let you go into 'M' mode until you've reconnected everything. Hindsight: I had originally tried to swap only one wire (instead of pairs) because the second wire of the pairs is a common ground and actually shouldn't need to be moved.... however when I tested -- before I discovered the above tip/quirk -- it didn't work. I neglected to take a picture of my wiring at this point. So I proceeded to swap the pairs and then discovered the above tip/quirk of the arrangement. Since the only photos I took were of the swapped pairs I've kept the instructions to how I've left the wiring in my own car. |
When you swap the pairs, does the left wire stay on the left and right on the right? Or is it supposed to be a mirror swap of the pairs?
Does that make sense? |
I'm confused...the pics are a mt?

@finch1750: Apologies about the super late response.
Have you figured it out? WRT AT vs MT Picture Confusion... I explained what's going on in the first post: Quote:
So have many folks done the swap? |
Sorry for reviving this thread. I did this earlier and was successful. The left wire stays on the left and right one stays on the right. Wires 1 2 3 4 at original position. It should be 3 4 1 2.

did this several months back...feels sportier already lol
thank you sir |
Is this same for 2018 BRZ? If not, is there any other thread or link you know to help me?
I have never made a mod on a car before, and a bit scared.. I wish there is a DIY video showing all the steps in details for the dummies like me. I couldn't find any. Any help is very appreciated.. |
Hi,
I am stuck at the un-pin part as I cannot remove and don't want to force the pulling. I've check different video on how to do so but the connector is not the same as the one from the brz/86 I have lifted the top part ( A ) in the image then i ve try using a hair pin and jewelry screw drive in section (D) and (C) but no luck. Maybe someone can guide me for that part where and how to unpin it? https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw...-no?authuser=3 https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw...-no?authuser=3 https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw...-no?authuser=3 |
