It is difficult to shift in and out of park on my 1992 Honda Accord. What could be wrong?

You have to have your foot on the brake to get out of park in most cars that are still on the road. I don't know why it's difficult to get it into park, but you could try doing it both ways, with and without your foot on the brake, and perhaps try shifting to neutral and then directly to park.

Automatic transmission will not move out of park:Could be 1 Transmission control unit is bad (most common) 2 Brake pedal release not working

I just took my Honda Accord shifter apart, and in doing so, I removed a clip holding the shifting cable in place, I then lifted the cable so the shifter was no longer connected. Upon removal, I found the shifter worked great. I put the cable back in place and took the car to a transmission shop and they put the car on a lift to gain access to remove the cover where the cable connects to the transmission. The cable was disconnected at this point, and we tried the shifter again and it was hard to shift, so the cable is binding and needs to be replaced.
