I have to jump in here. It's NOT a kickdown cable. It controls kickdown, sure, but also controls upshift points, and the clamping force in the tranny clutches. Misadjustment can burn up the box by allowing the clutches to slip. There's a very specific length adjustment in the manual, and I gues you can vary slightly from that without too much concern, but I'd avoid any large digression.
Not responsible for advice not taken...

I agree with Frankie that it is the kick down cable. I had to replace mine for a similar reason.

Does anyone now the actual adjusting procedures for the transmission cable? My A/T temp light is on all the time, even at cold startup, and I noticed that my Tranny cable at the throttle body was pulled out with throttle closed. I'm going to lube it meanwhile, and see if it retracts like it should. Thanks.

My A/T temp light is on all the time, even at cold startup, ... If your A/T temp light is always on it means that the sensor has failed and needs to be replaced.
