Most of the time what happens is the steering cable seizes inside the tilt tube on the outboard motor (where the cable goes through the outboard motor. So most of the time you have to ruin the steering cable to remove it from the tilt tube also on some boats the motor has to be removed to get the new cable in and out. The snapping sound that you heard is the nylon gear that is inside the helm/gear box. I know down at Marine Products 949 west 1700 south, We stock a lot of cables and cable kits.
