Door Latch Cable

A door latch cable is a mechanical cable inside a vehicle’s door that connects the interior or exterior door handle to the door latch mechanism. When you pull the handle, the cable transmits force to the latch, allowing the door to open.

Door Latch Cable Failure Symptoms
  • Door Won’t Open from Inside or Outside: Pulling the handle does not release the latch.
  • Intermittent Operation: The door opens sometimes and fails other times due to fraying or partial cable breakage.
  • Loose or Floppy Door Handle: The handle moves but doesn’t engage the latch properly.

About Genuine BMW

The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine BMW” brand. When ordering a Genuine BMW part you are guaranteed to get the same part that you would pick up from your local dealerships part department. Genuine BMW parts have been built to BMW’s stringent standards and are the same quality of the original parts used to build your Ultimate Driving Machine.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your BMW are not necessarily manufactured by BMW. No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a BMW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.

Questions & Answers

Ask a question
Question Posted by Michael
Is this cable for the interior door handle or the exterior?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
This Bowden cable is for the interior door handle, connecting the inside handle to the door latch/lock mechanism. It is not the exterior door handle cable.
