How do you change the shift cable on Subaru Forester?

To change the shift cable on a Subaru Forester, first, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported. Disconnect the negative battery terminal and remove the center console to access the shift mechanism. Detach the old shift cable from the transmission and the shifter assembly, then install the new cable in reverse order, ensuring it is properly adjusted. Finally, reassemble the console, reconnect the battery, and test the shifting function.
