My Ferrari F430 was just about the sell and I wanted to take my buddy Andy for a ride in it before it went. Unfortunately the F430 decided to break. When Andy went to open the door, the pull cable seized up and the door latch would no longer function.
So we ended up having to pull off the door panel and replacing the cable. Luckily I had a door pull cable that I had previously bought because this is a very common problem on the F430.
We were able to replace the cable and get the door fixed in about 1 hour so it’s not a terribly difficult job.

Nice!! Great job!!
It's like, oh cool he can work on his Ferrari. Later on it's like it's like OH he HAS to work on his Ferrari… Sorry, I mean GETS to work on it. Probably still cheaper than owning a nice boat. lol
Yes! Im gonna watch this later. I haven’t had time still to mess with driver side..
U break u buy
In this episode Todd Packer from The Office repairs a Ferrari door latch.
Italian cars: nice to see, nice to drive not so nice to own.
You've had this car for how long, and only NOW the infamous door issue comes up? That's funny. 🙂
Your buddy's right….do a few door panels and you can do ALL door panels. I bet most techs, nowadays, would scratch their heads at a simple "crank" style window (classic muscle car?) with no attaching screw ("What the hell is THAT?"). Human progress is GREAT! Great vid.
Why hasn't Ferrari been able to engineer a reliable door closing/opening and locking/unlocking mechanism?
Thanks for the video my 360 did the same thing nice it helped
Common trouble in 360s also, I wonder if the "exact" same problem or different culprit in the 360?
Some of the best content on YouTube, sir! Any way you could cover how to replace a completely rusted out floorpan?
Under the 'you break it / you fix it' theorem, it's a good thing your mechanically inclined friend broke it. Imagine trying to guide the Loeper through this procedure??
Good job Andy! Is Andy a professional auto mechanic?
Lucky new owner on that F430
The doors opening or closing on my Porsche are the last things I have to worry about. Just don't let the battery die.
Hey Andy! Come on down on vacation and we’ll put you to work fixing Ferraris!!
Whats up Dan, wanna race?
