ABSTRACT:
A shift lever construction for use in vehicles having automatic transmissions is described. This construction facilitates electrical wiring in the shift lever as well as providing a sophisticated core structure of the shift lever. The shift lever is pivotally supported by the vehicle body and has a knob for housing a push button which unlocks the lock mechanism of the shift lever. The shift lever has electrically conductive leads connected with a switch mounted in the knob. The shift lever is provided with a rod for unlocking the lock mechanism when pushed by the push button. The core is precisely molded through the use of combined mold tools which provide accurate positioning between the push button and the rod.
