How do you replace the transmission shfter cable on a 1989 Legend 37. I have an Edson pinnacle, the cable is jammed and needs to be replaced. I have removed the cable from the transmission but can't pull it through the binnacle.

Once the compass is removed, and the cable is disconnected from the lever section, look down in the tubular mid section of the pedistal .. There probably is a clamp that holds the throttle and shift cables against the side of the tube to keep them from fouling the chain.. There is a screw on the outside that loosens the clamp which then allows the cable to slide through. Do not remove the screw.. loosening it is sufficient.. If ya take the screw out, the clamp will fall down the tube and be a real bugger to re-install.. Good Luck !

and attach a line

Before you pull the cable out attach a line to the old cable. Then after pulling the old cable out you may use it to install the new one.
