Abstract
A connector end piece of a control cable from a vehicle transmission to a ball joint of a part of a gearshift or of a part of the transmission, where the end piece is intended to go over the cable and includes a radial window able to receive, by engagement, a cover having an inner threaded portion, where the cover is movable from a disengaged position to an engaged position in which it engages with a threaded end portion of the cable and locks said cable in position. The end piece comprises an end annular portion, coaxial with the cable, and receiving a security ring, said security ring being movable from an unlocked position to a locked position in which the cover is in disengaged position, the ring holds the cover in the disengaged position and prevents the cover from moving into the engaged position; and when the cover is in engaged position, the ring holds the cover in the engaged position and prevents the cover from moving into the disengaged position.
