simplicity pro p1524e. dflector cable seemed frozen, but now is somehow jammed. i want to remove to replace. can't figure out how to detach plastic housing from bracket, please see pic http://imgur.com/BPO2cqQ.jpg it's the end to the right , the black housing somehow is attached to the metal bracket on the machine. does this just pull out?

You have to either pinch the two tabs by the end with the x-hook connector, or remove a cotterpin, or something that is holding the round connector at the control panel by your waist when you are standing behind it.  Additional photos at both of those locations could help.

There may be suggestions on Youtube.

thank you. i got it out yesterday, there were 2 tabs to squeeze like you said! all fixed.

Sorry - meant Z-hook end, but you figured it out anyways.
