AnswerDisconnect the TRS wiring connector. The solenoid wiring connector can remain attached to the case.
Disconnect the shift cable from the shift lever (at the transaxle).
Move the shift lever clockwise as far as it will go. This should be one position past the L position. Then remove the shift lever.
