Shift Lever Disassembly/Reassembly
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Honda Fit, 2012 Honda Fit, 2011 Honda Fit, 2010 Honda Fit, and 2009 Honda Fit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Apply silicone grease to movable joints of the shift lock mechanism, the shift lever, and the lock pin rod. Keep the connector terminals free of silicone grease.
NOTE:
- Make sure not to get any silicone grease on the terminal part of the connectors and switches, especially if you have silicone grease on your hands and gloves.
- Do not wipe off the grease that is applied to the portion of the shift lever marked with an asterisk (*) when you disassemble or assemble it because a special grease is used.
