I you get the TC up so you can have good access you could find a way to unload it and free up the cable.  I bet if you loosen the mount  you will be able to free the cable.

Good Luck and keep us posted.

The manual for my 2015 Wagon has this caution on page 243....

"Do not raise the spare wheel carrier
without the wheel attached. Damage can
occur to the winch mechanism if lowered
without a wheel attached."

I might still have a spare reel if I can find it.  My van didnt have a spare tire when I got it and I needed the removable part on the end of the cable that the spare bolts to.  I wont be home until mothers day weekend.

 

PM me if you are interested, I will give it away for shipping costs if I can find it.
