I'm in the process of replacing my front door actuator. Got the door panel off but I'm having a problem disconnecting the cable that goes from the door handle to the actuator. There's a ball socket that needs to come off and it's hard to get to. I've tried some pliers on it but it slips off. Any ideas please.

Thanks,

Gary

BTW...I have the manual it all it says it has to come off...doesn't tell you how.
