Overview – BATTERY CABLE 4652505 Series
The Hitachi BATTERY CABLE 4652505 is part of a proven family of components used across Hitachi excavator starting and charging circuits, and several interchangeable part numbers share the same fitment.
Parts Characteristics
A heavy-gauge battery cable assembly with factory-crimped terminal lugs and full insulation, carrying the starter’s several-hundred-amp cranking current and the machine’s continuous charging current. Cable gauge, lug crimp quality and insulation condition decide how much of the battery’s energy actually reaches the starter motor on a cold morning.
Applicable Models & Applications
Fitted to Hitachi excavator starting and charging circuits; related series references include YA00010363, YA00034924, YA00035050 and YA00046561. Confirm cable length, lug pattern and terminal sizes against your old cable or the parts book – lengths differ between machine configurations.
Maintenance & Replacement
Inspect battery cables at every service: look for corrosion blooming at the lugs, insulation cracked by heat or chafed where the cable passes brackets, and green powdery corrosion wicking up the copper under the insulation – all signs the cable is restriction-ready, not just tired.
Test, don’t guess: measure voltage drop across the cable during cranking. A cable that measures continuous but drops more than a few tenths of a volt under cranking load has internal corrosion or a failing crimp, and no amount of terminal cleaning will fix it.
When fitting a new cable, route it exactly along the original path with all clips and sleeves refitted, keep it clear of exhaust heat and sharp edges, and torque the terminal bolts to specification. Always disconnect the battery negative first and reconnect it last.
Apply a light coat of terminal protectant to the lugs after fitting, keep the battery box clean and dry, and carry the cable part number in the machine file – ordering by photo of a burned cable usually gets the wrong length and the wrong lug pattern.
Price Reference (USD)
The BATTERY CABLE 4652505 generally falls in the USD 40-120 bracket, with expedited freight quoted separately.
