Gearbox cable sends directions from the gear lever to the Gearbox and, in our case, it is called Remote Gear Shift System, where the Selector or Shifter is separated from the gearbox; The Gearbox Cable sends directions and allows connection from the Gear Lever to the Gearbox.
These cables, unlike conventional ones like clutch cables, brake, accelerator, etc. are cables with a more complete technology, called Push-Pull, which makes the cable not stretch and lose strength in the transmission.
There are single and double cables; those with two cables consist of a Select cable and a Shift cable. The Select cable is the one that activates the gearbox and the Shift is the one that inserts the gear.
Gearbox Cable usually breaks due to wear, very rough use or projection defect in the original equipment design (OE).
There are two types of Gearboxes: Mechanical and Hydraulic. The difference between them is that in the Hydraulic Transmission there are no cables and that the Mechanical one is simpler, easier to replace and is less susceptible to breakdowns. And in case of breakdown, it is cheaper to repair them.
