Door Lock actuators still firing, advise please.
#1
#2
I just replaced both front door lock actuators following RAVE; same symptoms. I bought the replacements from Rovers North - they were about $125 bucks each. Take a good look at your window regulators when you do - I had one with two rollers broken, and the other had one broken roller... might as well check and replace them if needed while you have the door open.
The tricky part for me was pulling the rod that connects the actuator out of the connection to the external latch. You do just firmly pull it out and apart. Looks like it's going to break, but mine didn't. You can order replacement clips for a few bucks if they do break.
Plan for 2 hours for the first door, and 1 hour for the second after you see what you are doing (that was my experience).
Good luck.
