The Honda 75140-VA4-000 Ball Control Plate is a genuine OEM replacement built for HR194, HR214, HR216, HRA214, and HRA216 lawn mowers. Sourced directly from Honda, this part meets the same specifications as the original component it replaces. Honda supersedes parts at serial number breaks, so confirm your mower's serial number against the fitment table before ordering to ensure this is the correct version for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Accuracy — manufactured by Honda to the original design specification, ensuring the ball control mechanism operates exactly as intended for these mowers.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — engineered as a drop-in replacement for HR194, HR214, HR216, HRA214, and HRA216 lawn mowers with no rework required.
- Serial Number Matters — Honda updates parts at production breaks, so cross-reference your mower's serial number with the fitment table to confirm compatibility before purchase.
The Ball Control Plate is a structural component within the drive or blade engagement system of these Honda walk-behind lawn mowers. It guides and retains the control ball or linkage that translates operator input — such as a handle lever or bail — into engagement or disengagement of the relevant drive function. When this plate is worn, cracked, or damaged, the control mechanism can bind, slip, or fail to engage cleanly, leaving the operator without reliable command over the mower's function. Replacing a worn plate restores crisp, consistent control response.
