The Toyota actuators are part of the lock assembly, so they don't use the cable for the unlocking, just for flipping the manual lever back and forth.

It's the steel wire that broke on the cable with the white connector.

Understood. They are really not meant for yanking on (other than by hand with the little lever).

Did the cable break right by one of the aftermarket actuators metal stops?

Try flipping the lock lever by hand and comparing how far the stops move back and forth versus when you lock/unlock with power.
