My driver side power door lock stopped working intermittently a few weeks ago with it more less just not working lol and the occasional time it kicks in. So I did a search and found actuators seem to be a common cause. So I figured I'd go ahead with replacing it, but lately its been acting a little weird. The doors are set to look automatically when over 15kph, and I've notcied that after the initial lock on take off, anytime I go below 15 and then speed up again they all try to lock again, as in I can hear the little actuators try to lock the already locked doors. Also when tryin to lock the doors I can hear the driver side door lock motor whirring as though its trying to lock as well. My question is, does this still just sound like the actuator? Will replacing it solve my issues? And is the actuator potentially repairable or just replaceable?
Thanks Mak

 

Have you tried adjusting the timing for the lock? Set it for a longer time and set it back. See if that fixes your issue.

 

Will do, but I dont think thats going to cut it. The constant relocking of the doors is intermittent but the vast majority of the time the drivers door will not lock thru the fob or button on the door. I believe this to be the main issue and perhaps why the car is constantly trying to relock the doors as the driver side will not lock.
