    I have exactly the same issue. I was towing my travel trailer, pulled into a rest area. Came back to my truck and it would not start at all. I eventually found out that the exhaust had burned through the "so called" heat shroud around the cable exposing the inner wire cable. So when you tried to engage a gear it couldn't select because it came out of the outer cable shroud. As of 30mins ago I just ordered a new shift cable.
    Thank you for doing your "how to video", it's helped me a lot 💯👍.

    If you unplug the o2 sensor and push the female end of that harness off of the metal bracket that holds the shift cable underneath the truck and remove that bracket its two 10mm bolts then that whole bracket comes with and it is way easier dealing with that stubborn clip when the cable is out of the truck. Especially if you live down gravel roads and deal with salt and grime from the winter i find this to be a much easier way.

    Great video. If you can't get the the tab to lift with your finger there is a through hole that a punch will push the tab through and it releases easily . I spent $100 for the cable at auto zone and did it easily .

    I just put a new one on my 2015, now today same thing happened again I think it was because I might not have routed the cable the correct way but still, the old one the cable was bound up on the inside of the protective sheath but this time the cable just completely pulled out of it like the steering column piston side just unraveled

    Great job - Mine came off the cable guide underneath the truck and was laying on the exhaust. It melted the casing and stretched the cable - looks like the same happened to you!

      The truck wouldn’t go into park. So I left it in neutral, blocked the tires, crawled under the truck and saw my shift cable frayed like a broken rope.
