In buyer-friendly language, this is the seat lock cable, seat release cable, seat latch cable, or seat opening cable.

What This Cable Does

The cable links the seat-release mechanism to the seat latch. When the release is operated, the cable pulls the latch mechanism so the seat can be unlocked and removed. Because the cable must move smoothly through its outer sheath, corrosion, kinking, fraying, stretching or impact damage can cause poor seat-release operation.

Common Reasons for Replacement

• Seat does not release even though the lock / release control is being operated
• Cable has stretched and no longer pulls the latch sufficiently
• Inner cable is frayed, seized or broken
• Outer sheath is kinked, crushed or damaged
• Cable was damaged during seat, tail-section or body-panel repair
• Original cable is missing after dismantling
• Seat-release action has become unusually stiff or inconsistent

Important – Cable Only

HDHR4AAB4U003000GS is the seat-lock / seat-release cable. It is not the complete seat, seat latch, seat-lock cylinder, under-seat cover or mounting bracket.

Do not confuse this item with:

• Complete seat assembly
• Seat lock / latch assembly
• Seat-lock key cylinder
• Under-seat cover
• Seat mounting bracket
• Number-plate bracket
• Tail-section body panel

Why Exact Part-Number Matching Matters

• Mounting points and routing clips may be model-specific
• An incorrect cable may not fully release the seat latch
• Exact OEM-number matching helps prevent wrong-fitment orders

FAQs

1. What is HDHR4AAB4U003000GS?
It is the genuine seat lock cable / seat release cable for the Harley-Davidson X440T application shown in the January 2026 parts catalogue.

2. Which model is confirmed?
The supplied parts sheet confirms Harley-Davidson X440T – January 2026 / R4AA.

3. Is this the complete seat lock?
No. This listing is for the cable only. The latch / lock mechanism is a separate component.

4. Is a seat lock cable the same as a seat release cable?
Yes. Buyers and mechanics commonly use both terms for the cable that operates the seat latch.

5. My seat will not open. Does this cable always fix it?
Not necessarily. A seized latch, damaged lock, incorrect cable routing or another mechanical issue can cause similar symptoms. Inspect the complete release mechanism before replacing parts.

6. Can a stretched cable make the seat difficult to open?
Yes. If the cable stretches or develops excessive free play, it may not pull the latch far enough to release the seat.

7. Does this fit the earlier X440 or X440 OBDII?
This exact part is confirmed here for the X440T R4AA. Earlier models should be verified separately using the exact OEM part number.
