Hi I cannot push the front mech cable out of the Shimano Deore shifter. I have removed the cover screw but the cable won't push out. Rear mech cable came out fine. The Deores are 2014 vintage if that makes any difference. I am not ready for 1 x just yet. Thanks.

Shifted to the lowest/first position on the shifter?

If you have a double chain set and the shifter has the little switch to change it between double and triple ?

Then that toggle needs to be set to triple to let you remove the cable

Enjoy the sunshine. It's one of those many fun little things Shimano don't seem to anonce
