So, you're telling me there is no way to replace just the wire in this thing??

That looks like the same cable as used for carb heat on the O-360 aircraft.  I sent my carb heat cable (just the knob and piano wire, I didn’t remove the cable sheath) to Dan at LASAR and he repaired it by welding (silver soldering?) a new piano wire onto the shaft on the knob end.  Be careful to not loose the lock-ball  when you pull the knob out of the housing.

That is just like mine and no, I am not telling you that you can’t replace the wire. I don’t know if you can replace the wire. 
what is wrong with yours? Has the wire broken?

Mine is disconnected but still installed in the panel, since I have a turbo and 201 cowling. If anyone needs it, I can remove it and send it for a reasonable price.
