Citroen relay rear handbrake cable

[cornishrelay]

I have a 2019 Citroen Relay H3/L4 and need to replace the rear hand brake cables.

Has anyone done this? I can't see how on earth you are meant to remove the circlip holding the cable in place behind the dust shield.

Surely you don't have to remove the hub and dust shield??

There is a rather longwinded video here which may help, the rear cables start at around 16 mins in. viewtopic.php?p=601679#p601679

Thanks for the reply but that link takes me to a post about disconnecting the battery

Sadly he only shows the easy bit! Doesn't actually show how he removed the old cable from the hub.

OK right, but if he had to remove the hub etc I'm sure he would have shown it. I'll see if I can find a better option.

The cable appears to be held in with a circlip but it is absolutely impossible to get a tool in there and even if I could get the clip off I don't think it would be possible to fit a new circlip.

Can you take a picture or 2 of the issue?

I'd love to but in the same way you can't get a tool in there it would be impossible to get an accurate photo, however I will try tomorrow.
