Description
Cable with lock for the right rear wing door for Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Partner I and II. Upper hinge – used.
Product Description
This used cable-operated lock assembly is designed for the right rear wing (swing) door on Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Partner models (generations I and II). The unit includes the upper hinge area connection and the locking mechanism that secures the door in the closed position. Ideal for professional workshops and competent DIY mechanics looking to restore reliable door locking after wear, collision damage or corrosion.
Key Benefits
- Direct replacement for damaged or worn right rear wing door lock assemblies (Part Number: 8726C9).
- Restores secure door latching and correct locking operation.
- Saves time on repairs by replacing the complete cable/lock assembly rather than diagnosing multiple small components.
- Suitable for mechanics and experienced DIYers familiar with door trim removal and latch mechanisms.
Function And Application
The assembly transmits motion from the door latch/actuator to the locking mechanism via a cable and locking unit. When the door is closed or actuated by central locking, the cable and lock ensure the wing door remains latched and sealed. This part is fitted to the upper hinge/lock area of the right rear wing door and is commonly used on Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Partner models of the I and II series.
Replacement Guidance
Typical replacement procedure (general guidance):
- Open the door and remove the interior trim panel to access the latch area and cable routing.
- Disconnect any electrical connectors to the lock actuator (if fitted) and release retaining clips for the cable.
- Unbolt the latch/lock mechanism from the door and remove the old cable assembly from its mounting points and hinge connection.
- Install the new cable/lock assembly in reverse order: secure the cable ends, fasten the latch, reconnect connectors and check cable routing for smooth movement without kinks.
- Test manual and central locking operation several times and adjust latch alignment if necessary. Refit the interior trim and check for water tightness and correct door closing.

Installation Recommendations
- Perform the replacement on a level surface and ensure the door is supported to avoid damage to hinges or surrounding trim.
- Inspect surrounding components (hinges, striker plate, door seals) and replace or lubricate as needed to prevent premature wear of the new assembly.
- Check cable routing so it is free from sharp edges and does not bind when the door is opened and closed.
- If the latch has an electrical actuator, verify the connector pins are clean and protected from moisture.
- After installation, perform several open/close and lock/unlock cycles to confirm reliable operation.
Most Common Failure Causes
- Corrosion and water ingress leading to seized mechanisms or rusted cable ends.
- Cable wear or fraying from age, repeated use or poor routing.
- Broken plastic clips or mounts that secure the cable, allowing misalignment or interference.
- Impact or body damage to the door or hinge area that deforms the latch/striker geometry.
- Dirt and lack of lubrication causing increased friction and eventual failure of moving parts.
Who Should Fit This Part
Recommended for professional automotive technicians and experienced DIY mechanics. Basic mechanical skills and familiarity with door trim removal, latch mechanisms and cable routing are required for a proper installation.
Why Choose This Part
If your right rear wing door is not latching correctly, is difficult to lock, or the cable shows visible wear, replacing the complete cable and lock assembly with this part number 8726C9 restores safe and reliable operation. The unit addresses common failure points in older Berlingo and Partner vans where exposure to the elements and heavy use accelerate wear.
