It IS the adjustment. Can't be anything else. Go back and do a full up adjustment using the service manual. If that fails, make sure the ball and ramp are seated correctly from when you installed the new cable.

Rarely do we say "period or comma or God forbid, exclamation point!"

Now tilde gets used often...

OP~ pull your case off again and use 3 dabs of grease to keep the ***** in their respective slots.
