Turns out that it probably isn't actually a stretched cable, but rather a broken guide of some sort, but the fix works and so far it has been permanent for me.

Thanks Mr. Dave for the suggestion.

My question is how can I tell where to place the bicycle brake cable adjustment barrel? I see people have been placing either the front lower bracket part of it, or the rear lower bracket part of it.

Does it depend where the slack is? or does it really matter. I don't plan on taking the regulator out.

Once I install the brake cable adjustment barrel, I assume I need to adjust it where it will pull most of the slack?

I have two in my possession at the moment. I assume I will only need one.

Some people also remove the cable from the pulley, is that necessary? And if my plastic piece looks like good shape, should I even consider removing it or should I attempt to screw on the brake adjustment barrel right on the plastic piece.

Dreading taking the door apart again, especially in the cold... but it could be worst

Thanks for your time.
