Description
Cable with lock for left rear wing door for Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Partner I and II. Upper hinge – used.
Product Overview
This used cable-and-lock assembly with upper hinge is a direct-fit replacement for the left rear wing (barn) door on Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Partner models (generations I and II). The unit integrates the mechanical cable that links the interior/exterior handle to the door latch and the upper hinge mounting point, restoring reliable door latching and opening if the original mechanism is worn, corroded or damaged. Ideal for professional workshops and experienced DIY mechanics seeking an OEM-compatible solution under part code 8726C8.
How It Works
The cable transmits pull force from the door handle to the latch mechanism. The lock portion secures the latch in the closed position, while the upper hinge ensures proper door alignment and smooth opening/closing. Failure of any of these subcomponents results in a door that does not latch, does not open from the handle, or hangs misaligned.
