Yes there’s a spring in the lower assembly. When you hook up the cable there should be no slop; set the lever so as to release the cable tension and tighten the cable. The goal being to have it tight enough that it will “engage” neutral when the lever is set. Hopefully your cable is not frayed at the end.
