  Q: How to Maintain and Fix a Clutch Cable on Dodge Neon?

  A:

  Before working on the clutch cable, disconnect both the Battery Cables, remove the battery clamp and then take out the battery. After that, remove the Battery Tray from the mount bracket and the bellhousing cover. Take the clutch cable out of the transaxle housing and release lever and next take it out of the clutch pedal spacer. Avoid touching the clutch cable assembly, so you don't disturb the adjuster mechanism, making it harder to put back. Steer the cable through the bore in the pedal assembly and then unhook it from the vehicle. Before installation, insert the part of the cable that goes in the clutch pedal and link it to the spacer installed under the clutch pedal. Pull the release lever end of the cable until it is taut, then push the clutch cable housing toward the dash; this should move between 30 and 50 mm with pressing pressure under 25 lbs. Should the object remain still, this could mean the installation is off or it's broken, so investigate those causes first. Connect the end of the cable to the clutch release lever which is part of the transaxle housing. After that, put back the cap for the bellhousing, the battery tray, the battery and the hold-down clamp and finally reattach both battery cables. Always check that the clutch cable is in correct working order.
