Product Overview
Slow cranking, clicking, dim lights during start, intermittent electrical faults, or a hot battery cable can come from hidden corrosion inside the cable or poor engine grounds. This assembly replaces the negative battery/engine-ground path used on the listed GMT900 applications.
Fitment varies by engine, wheelbase, battery configuration, and production details. Compare every branch, eyelet, connector, length, and routing point with the original cable.

Compatibility Notice
Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application not shown.
Production date, engine type, transmission, trim, serial number, and previous repairs can change fitment. Compare the original part, mounting points, dimensions, connections, and listed reference numbers before purchase.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can a bad negative cable cause a no-start? A: Yes. Internal corrosion can create enough voltage drop to prevent proper cranking or module operation.
Q: Which number is the main reference? A: GM 22846471; the other listed numbers are earlier references it replaces.
Q: Will it fit a 2500 or 3500 truck? A: This description is limited to the listed 1500-series and SUV applications; verify by VIN for other configurations.
Q: Why does the cable look good outside but test bad? A: Corrosion can travel under the insulation where it is not visible.
