F Cable – GM (85673985)

The f cable here is the GM part, numbered 85673985. It is catalogued under Cables & Linkage > Cables.

• Where a cable operates a latch, the latch itself is often the real fault, so check that it moves freely before blaming the cable.
• Linkage rods with threaded ends are adjusted for length, so thread engagement at each end matters as much as the overall dimension.
• The number stamped on the old part is the only reliable identifier, since two parts can look identical and differ by a millimetre or by rotation direction.

The photographs on a listing show the actual stock item, so compare the mounting points and the connector or fitting rather than the overall shape. Genuine parts are made to the drawing the vehicle was built from, so dimensions and materials match the part being removed rather than being close to it.

Worth checking against the original before fitting. If you cannot read the number, we can match it from the VIN. In stock and sent from the US in one to two business days, free delivery over $59.
