This part is an OEM from Craftsman for use with Craftsman Lawn Mowers. The engine zone control cable stops the engine when you let go of the handle. The most common reason for replacing the control cable is if it is broken, causing the brake to not release even when the lever is pressed. This part is sold individually. The tool that you will need to replace the engine zone control cable is pliers.

Very Efficient
eRP has this figured-out, from beginning to end. I found what I needed quickly and precisely and the buying went very smoothly. Then the part arrived on time and in new condition. I am thankful that eRP isn’t like so many others that, intentionally or otherwise, create obstacles to the fun of shopping and fixing things. Thank you, Team eRP.
