    There is a cable lubricator for bike cables. Pre lubricating prior to installing the new cable would give you a lot longer life.
    I don’t have a Ferrari, but I do have a 1977 fiat spider 124.
    God bless. From USA.

    Unfortunately, the metal part of the door lock looks like in the Fiat Tempra or Lancia Kappa (Iveco also has a similar one). But the rest of the door lock is different. It may be that the metal part is shared, but the rest is dedicated to Ferrari

    Buy a cable oiler (seals between the sheath and cable then you spray in some wd40 or whatever with the plastic tube attachment) like we use on our bike cables. Adjust it and should be fine to keep using if it's not frayed.

    • @LOTPOR0402
      @LOTPOR0402 4 роки тому

      Thats what i was thinking , you can quite easily bring the old cable back to life by squirting wd40 or some solvent down it then use the cable oiler .Had this problem on a car i had .Top and bottom of it is ,is it stops the latch on the locking mech from going back ,so its always open.The cable probably not even stretched , the system needs free play in the cables anyway

  • @mbrenengen
    @mbrenengen 4 роки тому +5

    There is an adjustment on the cable (bottom end). At least in a pinch when you don't have an extra, I bet moving the adjustment nuts would buy you a lot of time (?)

    • @LOTPOR0402

      @gplusgplus2286 4 роки тому +2

      In general, be careful with lubricating these. Grease can pick up mud or even dust which means the over time lubricant becomes a thick goo that accelerates wear in the end. Sometimes no lubricant is specified.

    • @scottiencali

      Silicone spray lube..with the straw..shoot it down the cable. I do that with my vw hood latch release every few months.

      you are right Mark I should have. To be honest at £12 every 5-10 years I'm not to worried. If it was a case of having to order the complete $300 lock again ..... 100% they would be lubricated !!!

    Suggest you relube all cables like that with DuPont Krytox grease. Damned expensive, but works from 700F to -70F, never migrates or degrades. Inert to all caustic chemicals. You'll never need to reapply it, or worry about corroded cables.

  • @randomsurfer3963
    @randomsurfer3963 4 роки тому +1

    I had exactly the same issue on another car when it was freezing cold in the mornings. Since it's temperature related, if you leave the car running and have the cabin heating to the max, you might just about get it to work if the door becomes just that little bit warmer. Worth a try for those cases where you are stuck somewhere and the "neutral gear" safety feature won't let you drive off.

    The cable should be lubricated and the bare wire should have had a flexible rubber bellow covering the wire part. Then the Bowden cable would run smooth forever. You see this on almost all mountain bike brakes.

      Actually, WD40 can freeze up. Best thing to to (when not replacing the cable) is to use sewing machine oil. That really lubricates the cable and cable housing.

      Definitely try freeing it up lubricating and readjusting on those two lock nuts before going the new cable route!

      Best ones is GT85 or dry bike chain as they dont freeze.

    Really? How many Ferrari owners would be willing to do that (.05%), especially in a shopping center parking lot (.005%)?
    They would call the Ferrari dealership and have it picked up, hopefully in less then three hours (If their a good customer). ;-)
    I would hope that's, at worse a once in the cars lifetime repair?

      If you have any competence around cars this is not a difficult repair. If you are the type of car guy who has dreamed of owning a Ferrari and have worked on cars and finally bought yourself a Ferrari, this is simple. If you are a Ferrari owner who can afford $500K on a new car plus the depreciation, you are correct and probabaly your time is more valuable than paying the 2 hour labour cost to get this done. Then again the person who buys the new Ferrari may not even own it by the time the car gets old enough and this becomes a problem. I fall into the first category and fixed this myself.

      @@TairnKA having the knowledge first will help you achieve your goal. You first learn on other cars as I have. Learning ahead of time allows you to also save a lot of money if you are the average working man who just has a passion for cars rather than spending their money on other hobbies such a golf. Once you have those skills they are transferable between different cars. Each car will their own idiosyncrasies and you will troubleshoot different problems, but in the end all cars are a collection of a bunch of nuts and bolts that you loosen and tighten

      You would be very surprised how often this problem occurs. Typically the cables will last 5-10years. As you can see with the knowledge and two tools (allen key for door cars and 8mm spanner) it can be fixed for £12. Agreed its not something you are likely to do in a car park but in most cases like mine on the Stradale you get an early warning sign where it will randomly not close and you can feel the handle extend too much, it's then you put aside and hour at the weekend and £12 to fix it yourself ...... to you take it to a dealer and get charged £185+VAT and hour and probably much more than just a cable to repair.

    Use some spray grease on the cables, it prevents them from binding in their sleeves.
