I have 2 issues with my drivers side door actuator:
1. Cannot manually lock with door open
2. Remote lock press gets no response.
Details.
First, I have replaced the troublesome spring. This seems to be working well. This was replaced due to the bouncing lock issue. Just prior to removal, the bouncing lock stopped bouncing and remained in the LOCKED position.
Regrettably, I did not do any testing of the actuator until after replacing the spring.
Second, with the actuator
Power: None
Latch: Closed
I am able to manually lock and unlock without issue.
Third, with the actuator
Power: None
Latch: Open
I am NOT ABLE to manually lock. The locking lever will only travel about 1/2 way into the locked position. It is not a hard stop. Prior to removal, I was unable to press down on the lock with the door open. So this has not changed. I thought this was just a "feature", but on testing passenger side, I am able to lock with door open.
Fourth, with the actuator
Power: Yes
Latch: Open or Closed
The actuator responds to the remote unlock and will unlock or try to unlock.
The actuator DOES NOTHING on pressing the remote LOCK. I can here the passenger door clicking, but the drivers door actuator does nothing.
So, my main concern is the none response to the remote lock. Is there a way to determine if this is the actuator not responding or the receiver not sending a signal? Seems odd for the actuator motor to only spin one way.
Regards.
