  • Patent number: 10316885
    Abstract: A motor vehicle transmission cable attachment device includes a body having a slot receiving a pin in a body sliding direction transverse to a pin longitudinal axis. A member has a portion displaced at least partially into the slot when the pin is received in the slot, the portion thereafter preventing release of the pin from the slot. A lock supported on the body is moved between a lock disengaged position to a lock engaged position when the pin is received in the slot. A lock-out slide is moved from a first position wherein a lock-out slide portion is received in a lock cavity in the lock disengaged position to a second position when the pin is received in the slot. The second position has the lock-out slide portion positioned outside of the lock allowing the lock to be displaced to the lock engaged position.
