Hello guys, just bought myself a sl-m315 set and I’m losing my mind about how to wire this cable through, I’ve watched maybe 5-6 videos about how tune and replace the cable but none of them solve this problem. Any bike mechanics know? The derailleur is the FD-m315 and the bike is a carrera vengeance, am I missing something, or straight up stupid? Let me know

Routing looks like you got it. Should be in a housing and zip tied to the tabs underneath the frame.
You’re literally rubbing the cable against the clamp bolt in the video, I don’t understand what’s the confusion about?
It needs to go up and around the derailleur through the little black plastic channel. You can see the fins of the channel in the first couple seconds of the video from behind. It looks like you are trying to go straight to the bolt which only works for top pull (and may not work at all with this derailleur, it’s been a while).
