Please see my photo. I started leaking what I assume to be hydraulic fluid from the proof cable? (I'm a newbie) Is this what I'm hoping, in that I can just order and install a new cable? Anyone have experience with this? Thanks!

If you check on a new cable also check and see if there is a seal that goes in that leaking end or is part of the cable assembly.

Ok thanks, I ended up ordering a new cable and a new seal as you describe. We'll see if that does the job. Thanks!
