Need break down of an automatic in terms of the shifter. Ok...so far Ive got the shifter and ****. (mentally not physically) **** being attached to the shifter stick, and the shifter being mounted on the floor board of the car. From the shifter theres a cable...the cable goes to a bracket, then to the lever (might be the other way around) which controls what gear the tranny is in. From what Im told, there is a bracket mounted on the trans. pan...Im not sure I understand that because I cant get a visual. Theres also a lever that I cant picture where it goes. Then theres another cable called the park lock cable, which I have no clue whatsoever how that works nor how its all mounted. Does anyone have any pics, layouts from a manual, or any kind of visual breakdown? Nuetral safety switch was also brought to my attention, how about does that work and how is it wired/mounted? Its all the small little gadgets and mechanisms that I dont understand. Can someone please breakdown how everything works, how its wired or mounted, and what all parts make up the shifting in an automatic? Thanks

Im going with a 200-4R, so Im not going to need any of that. What I was wanting to know is what parts make up the shifting in an automatic. In other words, from the time you press the button on the shifter **** till it changes the gear inside the tranny. What are all the parts the play a role in doing so. Thanks
