Side cable housing should lift up and flip over to give you access to the housing screws underneath. |

Step 3: Wrap the cable right back around and hold in place (its harder than it sounds!) |

Rethreading the cable gear step 1: Thread the cable through the gear, this part is very fiddly. Make sure you have half the cable coming out each side. |

This bottom gear is where the cable attaches to, please note very carefully the position of the gear as you remove it, or use here for a reference. |

Underneath the gear housing, inside the body cavity, showing where the bottom cable feeds through, note it also has a spring that it must run through. |

The gear housing lifted out of the body cavity, DO NOT PULL IT RIGHT OUT! Leave the wires attached. You will need to undo the three screws during the operation. |
