Truck lid cable problem

[Capt1]

My 99 Valkyrie Interstate truck lid cable keeps coming off.  I have put it on twice.  It's off now. How do I keep it from coming off.

I sold my interstate, so I can't look at it. If memory serves me, there's a clip the cable hooks in, take a pair of pliers and squeeze it tighter. If it's the screw that's pulling out, put the next size up screw in place.
