For 2007 and earlier models, begin by moving the shift knob lower bezel down and removing the screw at the front of the shift knob, then lift upward to remove the knob, with installation being the reverse of removal. For models from 2008 to 2012, first remove the upper bezel around the shifter, disconnect the TCS electrical connector if equipped, slide the shift knob lower cover down to access and remove the two screws, and then pull out the knob while detaching the TCS harness, with installation reversing the removal steps. For 2013 and later models, remove the upper shift lever bezel, pull up the shift knob boot to disconnect the electrical connector, remove the two screws, and pull the knob off the shaft, with installation reversing the removal process. To access the shift lever assembly, disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal and wait two minutes, then remove the floor console and center trim covers as needed, use a trim tool to pry the cable end from the ballstud, release the tabs on the shift cable to detach it from the console, disconnect the electrical connector and wire harness clips, remove the carpet retainers, and take out the four shifter base bolts to remove the shift lever assembly, with installation being the reverse of removal. Check the shift cable adjustment and ensure the vehicle starts in Park and Neutral, with back-up lights illuminating in Reverse. For the column shifter, remove the upper and lower steering column covers, disconnect the shift lever connector and harness clip, remove the shift lever screw, and take out the shift lever while being careful with the harness, with installation reversing the removal steps. After removing the shift lever, detach the shift interlock cable and shift cable from the assembly, remove the mounting bolts, and take out the shift lever assembly, with installation being the reverse of removal. Again, check the shift cable adjustment to ensure the vehicle starts only in Park and Neutral, and that back-up lights activate in Reverse. For the paddle shifter, disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal and wait two minutes, remove the airbag module from the steering wheel, take out the steering wheel switch trim panel screws, disconnect the electrical connectors from the switch trim panel, remove the trim panel, disconnect the electrical connectors from the paddle shifter, and remove the two mounting screws to take out the paddle shifter, with installation being the reverse of removal.
