1015 throttle cable replacement
 

I've got a bit of a puzzle. HOW do I remove the throttle cable assembly from the console?? I've removed all the screws that I can find but for the life of me, I can't get the assembly to come out of the dash. It appears to have 'ears' at the top and bottom that holds the assembly in place. I've tried to carefully pry the assembly loose but I've got it to the point I was scared to pry any further in case it broke.

Model 138200100
Serial 136137
Date code D138B (might be G)

That's meaning a '8' year if I understand correctly, either 88 or 98...
If anyone can advise on removing the throttle assembly, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks

Does the parts and service manuals available at the top of the page offer you any joy?

Unless I'm very off base with my searches, no, the manuals don't help. It appears like it should be straight forward, pull the screw on the front of the console, out of the top front of the assembly and pull it out. Except it won't come out and I really don't want to break it ....

It appears to me that the "ears" you a referring to is a tab to snap the assembly in place.
You would have to push the tab inward towards the assembly body, possibly with small screwdriver or putty knife, while pulling the assembly upward out of the hole.

YES! That's what I was looking for! Evidently, I haven't been pushing hard enough on it even though I thought I was.

Thank you for the tip!
