Here are pictures of what I found at the cable end at the external valve 3 years ago when I took it apart to replace cables. Was rusted from moisture and stuck. 20181215_093858.jpg
And here are pictures of the new cable from 3 years ago. There does not seem to be any rubber seals at the ends.20190110_204238.jpg20190110_204238.jpg
Cable seemed to be frozen at the low point under the cab as it freed right up with the salamander heater aimed at it. I will be pulling it back apart at the valve end to lube and will try a little heat on the caps on the valve out of curiousity to see if it pops free before digging into cable.

How did your problem get resolved?
I'm sure I will be in the same place down the road.
Thanks for posting.

I used a heat gun when my joy stick froze up.
