Hi there, sounds like the useless plastic casing of the cable has snapped like mine did. If you ping the seat cover off (two elastic loops under the seat located on hooks) and find where the cable goes through a white plastic part, this can shear off where it is supposed to sit in the black cannister shape thing just above it. Have a look on the drivers side at how it should look, then compare it. Chances are the white thing has failed. Not fixed mine yet as araldite didnt do the job but a little bit of fabrication should do the trick! Best of luck
