I saw this happen to a prop cable. Came right out while the pilot was cycling
the prop before takeoff. It was a vernier cable, and
the pilots flying that plane had a habit of screwing it in before landing, rather
than pushing it in. They'd screw it all the way
in and then some, kinking the cable.
On the AA-1 series, the recurring AD can be eliminated by replacing the cable with
a vernier control. Oh, well ...

David:
Screwing the cable in, or Pushing the cable in makes no difference. If
anything, pushing it in would put more flexing force than screwing it in.
The 'CABLE' does not turn when being screwed in, it is only shaft portion
right behind the the knob that turns; Full In is Full In. No matter how it
is achieved. There is also a 'slippage' to the screwing action, so you
could twist all day long without ever increasing any force on the cable.
Why did the cable break? Only the cable knows for sure.
