Default Shifter problems POP-OUTS

I recently researched shifter problems. The results were that no matter what type of vehicle you may own in terms of UTV's there appears to be problems shifting from neutral to low or high or reverse. Sometimes it is only the indicator lights that don't work and at other times it is difficult to enter a gear or that you get the pop-out issue. The pop-out issue seems to be the most frustrating. Pop-outs in L (low) in 4X4 mode under heavy low appear to be most prelevent, there were lots of pop-out in high gear especially going up inclines of different degrees. I have spent some time adjusting mine, trying to balance between getting the L,H,P,N,R to sit so they don't pop-out under heavy load (in my case plowing snow) and having the indicator lights on. I would suggest we could all benefit if we combine our experience here and get some feedback with pictures on how to battle this problem and maybe even get some feedback to manufacturers on how to improve this shifting issue.

mine was doing the same thing and sometimes you had to play with the shifter to get the nuetral light to come on .
check the connector pipe to make sure it's not bent(straighten if necessary)and then adjust untill you hear it sfiting in all the gears ,adjustment must start in neutral and need not be running. all it took, after i figured out which way to turn the connector,was a half turn
