Abstract

An actuating arrangement for a Bowden cable, in particular in a vehicle, includes a bracket which can be fastened to a wall and a lever arrangement which is pivotally fastened to the bracket and includes a lever member and a cable coupling for one end of the Bowden cable. To provide improved installation conditions and a concealed arrangement of the Bowden cable, the lever member and the cable connector are separate parts which can be connected to each other in a rotationally fixed relation after the assembly consisting of the bracket and cable coupling has been fastened to the wall.
