I just found out that my parking brake cable on the drivers side is zip tided on the control arm and not connected in the drum!How do I go about to connect it to the ( Parking brake actuator (part of 2A225) ??? The workshop manual doesn't show how?? just the part?? It's # 6 on the description.

Update: Got it connected and working.Make sure afterwards you adjust shoes because that was the cause of the cable disconnecting from the actuator.
 
Here are some pictures( Not my Pictures but this what I found after I fixed mine ) that might help someone some day.Also now when put in "Drive" the Parking Brake Automatic releases.
