To change the shift cable on a 1998 Chevy Cavalier, first, disconnect the negative battery terminal to ensure safety. Next, remove the center console and any necessary trim to access the shift cable. Disconnect the old cable from the transmission and the shifter, then install the new cable by reversing the disassembly process, making sure it is properly connected at both ends. Finally, reassemble the console, reconnect the battery, and test the shifter for proper operation.
