I've had success in freeing stuck cables with this method.Get a can of automatic trans fluid,a cheap roasting pan,take the cable off,then dunk it in the pan with the fluid,just enough to cover the cable.You may have to twist-tie the cable to keep in it the oil.Then go work on something else for a few days.When you are happy with the cables,clean the outside of them.Works great,plus you don't have to work hard
