It's fairly common knowledge that the Gen 1 TSX had door lock actuator issues. Even Youtube video on DIY replacement!

Are the systems/parts different for Gen 2 models? They've only been out since late 2008 - everyone's still holding up ok?

My driver side actuator would make a buzzing noise on rainy days or super humid days. I had it replaced under warranty and never had any issues since.

I believe there's a new TSB about this on 09-12's, so I'm doubting it's been truly resolved.

I haven't had any issues with them on my '10 TSX. However, I them all replaced under warranty in my previous car, an '07 Civic, because they would start squeaking when unlocking the doors.

My door will no longer unlock by using the key fob. I'd have to use the key directly...then when I start to drive, it won't lock by itself. It makes the noises but it won't do anything...I'm guessing its a warranty issue, which is good to hear cause its really annoying.

this issue is a known by honda corp. i have people calling everyday about doors not working on the older tls accords,crv mdx etc. but so far no issue on my 09 so i think they fixed the issue but well c

Does anyone know the part number for the actuator? or a link to order? thanks in advance!

My door lock has not been working anymore. i have to use the key to lock and unlock the door.
is there a part number or even better a diy to fix it?

dealer is charging 400 bucks for it

thanks

Mine are fine, but I did have two of them replaced early on because they made a really weird high pitched noise once in a while, but now all is well. 2010 with 75K on the clock.

I think the best solution is to just not lock the doors. Might i suggest something like this?

is the OP basing his purchase decision on a $100 part?
