Default Traction Control

My traction system has like a 6" plastic piece coming out of traction sensor that the cable runs from the sensor to the engine. That cable came out with the plastic peice and now I have no gas pedal. I was reading about how to replace the cable with a new cable bypassing that traction system. Hope that made sense
Lookin for some advice

I have the same white sleeve as I remember was loose but will have to look at it in the morning as I had it all apart before . The cable end engages inside the bell crank and can be tricky .

I just notice I did not reveal what I need. I was asking if anyone knew how to bypass the the traction and what I needed to do the job

When removing the black plastic cover by popping the 2 upper tabs up you will see the 2 cable ends in the bellcrank that join the 2 cables inside the sleeves . Don't take it apart for it is tricky to get back together as I was cleaning mine . Is it possible to take the " A " cable inside the sleeve exiting the firewall / brake assembly casting and use the " B " sleeve that has the throttle adjustment barrel close to the butterfly . Reswedging the cable end is a question . How to find one outside the aircraft hanger ? Final assembly will be longer then needed . Did the white sleeve positioner break on cable " B " ?

Yes the white piece broke off and the cable came out of the unit. The cable from the actuater is not attached to the any longer

May have to visit salvage yard for the cable " A " end into the throttle pedal is buried and can't even put a finger on the cable end . Might be able to put a sleeve on the white plastic on cable " B " with a fiberglass type repair using JB Weld long curing in the red package not the yellow . Some sort of material would have to be found to give it some backbone . Good stuff that can be filed and sanded after cure , even into shapes like the clip groves into the actuator .

With the JB Weld if you remove the molding before it goes to full cure I have easier luck with it's release and sanding like in the clip end of the white barrel .
