I was trying to see if any of you have a diagram of the 2006 HHR floor gear shifter. My daughter spilled a Mountain Dew down in it and now it does not like to shift out of park. It may take one try and it may take 20. Any help I can get that would be great.

 

Preliminary Procedures
•Remove the front floor console. Refer to Front Floor Console Replacement
•Disconnect the shift cable from the shift control. Refer to Floor Shift Control Cable Replacement .

1 Instrument Panel Center Support Bracket

Refer to Instrument Panel Center Support Bracket Replacement .

Tip
Disconnect the shift lock solenoid electrical connector.

2 Shift Control Nut (Qty: 4)

Tighten
10 N·m (89 lb in)

3 Shift Control Bolt (Qty: 4)

4 Shift Control

 

I will let you know if it works.

 

Wd-40 works wonders and you wont have to take it apart

 

WD-40 won't dissolve sugar. Use distilled water, and lots of it. Then after it dries, spray the lube.

 

We took the gear shift assembly out and cleaned it and so far so good. Thanks again for the diagram. I am sure you saved us alot of money showing us how to do it ourselves.
