This video shows how I replaced the drum connecting cable in a Hydrostar sewer auger. I am not a professional. I could not find another video or any instructions on how to do this so I created this should it be beneficial to anyone else. Please note that there are actually two issues: one is the kinked cable that I note in the video. The second - that is not specifically called out - is that the cable had gotten turned 180° (the bracket that holds the cable to the drum). I actually think that was the bigger of the problems.

I ordered the replacement drum connecting cable from Hydrostar.
