| The top section of the shifter has come loose from the rubber material inside it. The rubber bonds the upper and lower halves of the shifter together as well as dampens vibrations and heat. Once the rubber breaks loose it allows the top portion of the shifter to spin. You need to be able to grab the upper half of the shifter that the shift knob screws onto and hold it. May have to take a bunch of stuff apart to give yourself access to that area. Might have to take the whole shifter out of the car with the console still attached as well. Once apart, you can drill and insert a pin all the way across. This will lock the upper and lower halves of the shifter together and keep it from turning. I have lots of shifter cores that turn like this. I never used them to make my short shifters as I didnt want customers having this same issues. I'm looking at using some now using the pin method. I have done one this way and it has held up fine so far.
