This Genuine OEM auto part is a battery starter cable specifically designed for 2004-2008 Ford F-150 models. The part is identified by two numbers: “4L3Z-14300-AAA” and “WC-95782.” The battery starter cable plays a crucial role in connecting the vehicle’s battery to the starter motor, facilitating the initial electrical surge required to crank the engine. Should the original cable become damaged or worn out, replacing it with this genuine part ensures the uninterrupted flow of electrical power to the starter motor, enabling consistent engine starts for the specified Ford F-150 models between 2004 and 2008.
This is a brand new genuine part in OEM manufacturer’s packaging. It is not an aftermarket part, but the same exact piece you would purchase from a new car dealership.
