Default 84 vette TV Cable help

I have an 84 and the TV cable is broken under the car. Three things I need to know are, what does it do? Where can you get them? and can I just fix the existing one. If anyone has any pictures of what the connector up by the throttle body look like that would be great. Thanks

it controls your shift pressure, and without it than trans will burn up. they are usually not repairable.they are not very expensive.

Does this part look right for a manual 4+3?

Ha, neither do I, but thats why I started this thread. I just want to get this thing up and running. If anyone knows where to get one it would be great. I dont know if the auto one will work. If anyone has tried it I would appreciate it. I also cant get the car up too high so as far as a change out it isnt as easy as if I had a lift. Thanks all.
