Shift lever apparatus and control method thereof
A shift lever apparatus is provided and includes an operating part having fastening pins extracted therefrom and inserted thereinto, based on a signal input. A select lever part is coupled to a shift lever that rotates based on a shift pattern to rotate along with the shift lever. Additionally, the shift lever corresponds to a position of a shift stage based on the shift pattern and includes a plurality of insertion apertures into which the fastening pins are inserted. The fastening pins selectively permit or limit the rotation of the shift lever based on whether the fastening pins are inserted into the plurality of insertion apertures.

MANUAL SHIFTER REVERSE LOCKOUT MECHANISM WITH VIBRATION ISOLATION SYSTEM
A vibration isolation system reduces rattling in a reverse lockout mechanism for a manual shifter. A shaft retained in a shifter housing has an upper end for a shift knob and an enlarged barrel section proximate the housing. A lockout skirt slides on the shaft between upper and lower positions. The lockout skirt has a shoulder extending radially outward, and the housing includes a stop block such that the shaft is prevented from pivoting to a reverse gear position when the lockout skirt is in the lower position and is free to move to the reverse gear position when the lockout skirt is in the upper position. A spring retained on the shaft biases the lockout skirt toward the lower position. A plurality of lubricated O-rings are disposed on the shaft to define sliding interfaces between the lockout skirt and the shaft and between the lockout skirt and the barrel.
