Thank you for the thorough video. Happy to report that I was able to find the hole by using a flashlight as recommended here. Wife is very pleased to be riding her bike again!
Thank you for your video. I replaced rear shifter and brake cable this morning, saved my time sending my bike to shop and of course save money.
All these awesome, high quality tutorials! This is why I love park tools and always try to buy their brand when it's available.
This video was incredibly helpful to fix my bike, after the cable snapped in the shifter! Thanks so much ParkTool!
Excellent video. Includes replacing many different grifter designs.
Excellent video. Impressed that all varieties of Shimano drop bar levers are covered.
Thank you Park Tool! I had a broken cable inside the lever, it was a bit tricky to take out. All good now, cheers!

Good idea.
Weirdly my SRAM Apex shifter seems to be different to the one in this video, is there more than one layout for the component?

LOL, anyone with an eye for statistics and pondering market share might notice in the "how many people have watched this part" when you mouse over the video, Shimano replacement is at least 5x that of SRAM replacement. Of course it might just mean the Shimano cables need replaced far more often (which might be a thing?!)

I think we were (mostly) all trying to replace our shift cables rather than fight over SRAM or Shimano 😂

Not a conclusion you can draw. Imagine the population of Shimano is bigger than SRAM... Then it still doesn't tell you anything. You have to look at proportions and be aware of your sub-population (what if SRAM people don't watch KZread...) you get the gist.
