This generally requires replacement of the solenoid that drives the door lock. Some have managed to fix by surgery on the solenoid. I've never done it myself, although I have a 94 Accord EX that buzzes on the RR door.

You could also remove the door panel and disconnect the buzzing solenoid. This would leave you w/ manual door lock on that door, hopefully not the driver door.

Some disabled the auto door locks entirely by pulling fuse on auto door locks.

See following thread for discussion of solenoid fix.

good luck

When I took the four screws off of the back of my door lock actuator and first opened it, I noticed two small black rubber pieces, (about 1/4" square) just "floating around" (not connected to anything) inside the actuator. They were in the process of rotting away. After playing with the actuator for a few minutes, I realized that they originally were "bumpers" that stopped the gear sector at the end of its swing in either direction. When the gear sector swung too far in either direction (because the bumpers were missing), then maybe 2 or three teeth of the gear sector actually contacted the gear assembly. Consequently, when the motor was energized, the gear assembly put enough force on the gear sector that the gear sector jumped off of the gear assembly repeatedly and rapidly, causing the BUZZZZZZ noise.
That is very similar to what I found in my car, but, never got around to fixing.

I had some great luck "fixing" a bad lock solenoid on a 96 accord. Usually (or so I'm told/read) the buzzing precludes the soleneid screwing up - the most common problem is that when u lock the doors, it keeps trying to lock them like every 2 seconds. A very VERY common problem on accords.

After toolin the net, I found some guy who had tried something different - there is a blue/white wire running from the door lock solenoid. To see it, you'll obviously have to take the door panel off. Apparently this guy discovered that this wire was no longer getting a good ground, and after grounding it, everything worked again.

I tried this on said vehicle, and yes, surprisingly enough, it worked. Lock worked fine after that. Now im not sure if this will cure any "buzzing" from the solenoid, but its worth a shot.

Oh, and please do post if this fixes the buzz, cause I think my TL is starting to "buzz" on the passenger door now!
