    7:00 -7:15 was all I needed to see then I opened my van by hand. Then fixed it. My actual cable came off the lock.
    From that 7-7:15 screenshot I was able to put the cable back on.
    Thanks😊

    Man your preaching to the choir. What a piece of crap ford did when they used the nylon ends on these cables mines a 2001 and I've replaced all the ones on both side and rear doors. I'm surprised the two passenger doors haven't gone yet. But now I probably jinxed it, haha. The outter side just went again yesterday. What a pain in the butt. I actually had to take the outter handle off. So had to drill out the rivets, and put small bolt's on it. Cause I didn't have a rivet gun that'll hold 1/4 inch rivets. Now I do. Anyway, there goes tomorrow. Take care.

      What took so long? If it was taking the panel off I understand. Think about the mechanic that gets paid by the rate manual. It only pays 50 minutes.

    Manufacturers from the auto industry all the way through, well, you name a manufacturing business and what you will see is that the word "quality" is no longer the backbone of ANY manufacturing company, most ESPECIALLY, the automotive industry. They long ago adopted what is called "Planned Obsolescence". They purposefully design their products to wear out at a specific point so that you, as a CONSUMER, are forced to repair your vehicle (or product) or to cause you to go out and buy the same item again.

      Do you think Ford had the metal replacement ends already designed when they manufactured these cables? I'll bet they did. So now it's either buy all new cables. At an exorbitant price. Or buy the tips. Not sure how long the tips have been around. But i remember when my first one went out, they were more expensive. My vans a 2001. Bought it in 2002. Guess I can't complain too much. So far everything I've had to fix, I've done myself. Still runs strong with the titton V8. And 20 years old. Just stupid stuff like this, that's aggravating. Good luck, Ford owners.
