The Gear Shift Knob fell apart (plastic and spring broke). It had long been cut from overdrive button and functions to shift gears. (Car is automatic). I ordered an exact same part #6843471 and have not been able to fit it on so that it presses the pin when lever is pulled back. Any solutions? I figured since I wasn't connected to overdrive with the other knob (really same exact piece of plastic) it wouldn't be a problem, but something is obviously not working. Thanks for tips.

Pull it back off. With a paper towel put a light coat of oil on the shaft. Reinstall the knob. Smack the top to set it all the way down. Clean up any excess oil.
