Question:

Hi! I accidentally backed up my car too much and broke one of the cable lock assembly of my yakima holdup bike rack. I cant find nor I remember what the model number of my Yakima Holdup Bike carrier. I have attached some photos for your reference. I am hoping you could assist and guide me in what cable lock assembly i actually need to replace the one that just i just broke. I am also hoping it comes with a manual on how to replace the cable lock assembly. Thanks in advance.

Oh my! I'm glad that was the only damage!

In this case, I recommend purchasing the Replacement Cable Lock Assembly, part # Y8890284 so you can replace the endcap that secures the lock as well as the lock itself, just in case a particularly determined thief notices the damage. It does not include a manual, however you should be able to complete the replacement easily by removing the clipping pin from the side of the lock endcap and replacing with the new one.

I've modified one of the pictures you submitted to highlight the part that needs to be swapped out.

For ease of use, I recommend obtaining a new set of Yakima SKS Lock Cores, specifically a six pack, part # Y07206, and re-coring all of your locks on the two cable mounts and the hitch lock so that the keys once again match.
