There is not a lot you can do as far as taking them apart to access the inner surfaces. Scroll up and check out the last paragraph in post #2 in this same thread for a method I have had reasonable success with on dirty or maybe slightly rusted vent control cables. This has also worked on some stuck Overdrive lockout cables. On the OD cables there is the additional issue of a steel shaft sliding inside a steel tube or sleeve at the transmission end.

If the cables have been around enough water to have completely rusted the inner wire and outer housing wire coil surfaces together then there is not much that will be successful other than replacing the cables.
