Dorman - OE Solutions Door Latch Cable P/N:912-742
Keep the pull of your door handle connected to the latch with the Dorman door latch cable, part number 912-601, a front left door latch release cable for the 2003-2009 Kia Spectra and 2007-2009 Kia Spectra5. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
A door latch release cable carries the motion of the door's release handle to the latch mechanism so the latch can let go and the door can open. If a stretched, frayed or broken cable is why your front left door won't open from the handle, this cable replaces it.
Signs this cable may need replacing include a door that won't unlatch when the handle is pulled, a handle that feels slack or has no resistance, or a latch that releases only some of the time. A worn handle or a faulty latch can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing parts. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for full fitment details.
