Unless you have Greg's problem, where the inside end of the shift lever (at 
the AT) is broken, the adjustment is simple.

First make sure that all the parts at both ends of the cable are secure, 
especially the anchor points for the Bowden cable.

Put the lever in P and loosen the cable clamp at the rear, then push that 
lever as far as it will go to the rear. Tighten the clamp while in this position.
