So the original came out fine. But the new one is stuck somewhere, I looked at tunnel pics and there isn't a break in the tube, or is there?
I pulled the rear tunnel access panel and pull the shifter out of the way but I don't really see anything The worst part is I cannot even pull the new one back out, it is stuck somewhere and I don't want to yank or push too hard to F things more. I thought this was a easy project but dammmmm |

so I am able to pull the new one out with some slight force, the old can go back in and out no problem, the new one seems to hang up at the 2 feet mark,
i feel like i need a solid wire or something to make way, i tried rotating the cable and jiggling it to try to overcome the jam but no go .......... |

You may have a piece of the plastic sheath in the tube. You may need to flatten the end of the wire to ream out any foreign material. |
