FAQs
Is this an official Husqvarna part?
Yes, this is an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part produced by Husqvarna.
Can I use this on a non-Flymo mower?
No, this part is engineered specifically for Flymo XL500 and XL550 models and may not function correctly on other equipment.
What tools do I need for installation?
Generally, you will need a set of pliers and standard screwdrivers to remove the mounting clips or housing screws.
Should I oil the cable before installing?
It is generally not necessary, as the inner cable is often pre-lubricated. Using non-approved lubricants may collect dust and cause sticking.
Why does my choke cable break over time?
Cables are subject to vibration, heat, and tension cycles, which cause the inner wire to stretch or fray inside the housing over years of use.
Troubleshooting
Choke lever feels loose or unresponsive
Check the cable housing for proper seating in the mounting brackets; if the cable has stretched, it may require replacement.
Engine still will not start after replacement
Verify the choke valve on the carburetor is fully closing when the handle is pulled; adjust cable tension at the anchor point if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility
This part is specifically designed for:
- Flymo XL500
- Flymo XL550
Setup
- Ensure the engine is cool and the spark plug wire is disconnected for safety.
- Locate the choke lever on the handle and the carburetor attachment point.
- Disconnect the old cable by releasing the retaining clip at both ends.
- Route the new 5128110-01 cable through the same path as the original, ensuring no sharp bends or kinks.
- Secure the ends and test the lever travel range to ensure the choke fully engages and disengages.
Care
Keep the cable housing free of dirt and grass debris. Avoid using heavy lubricants on the inner wire, as these can attract grit that causes the cable to stick over time.
