I was cleaning up the pedal cluster area and I knocked off the accelerator cable socket. I pushed it back on, but heard no snap. Soon as I touched the cable again the socket came off the ball. I've only been able to press the socket onto the ball with my fingers. Is the socket supposed to have a liner inside ? Any tricks to keep this on ?

I've never had any plastic liner in that ball socket you have pictured. I have always just dabbed some lithium white grease in that socket when I changed out the cable.
