What are the symptoms? Is it not going up? Not going down? Or nothing at all?

Same issue. Broken spectra line cable. Just replaced with Hobie spectra both up and down lines. I may be a bit retarded but it wasn't a snap job. Getting the lines around the pulley properly took several attempts. I pried out the little rubber sleeves in the plastic tubes and could run the line freely to tie into the Hobie existing line. Took a while to adjust but works fine now. This was on a 2012 Hobie and they made some changes on later models. Good luck.

Any slack in the line?  Could be the clip that holds the tension bungee to the line is undone.

I replaced several times repairing/replacing lines on my old Oasis using the attached manuals.
If you want to save time, you might want to buy Hobie Mirage Rudder Up/Down Line Kit Universal.

Replacing a line takes 30-45 minutes.
