2seater Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Mine is similar, but is better in warm weather. I think it is alignment and lubrication. The power lock is back at the actual latch but the indicator for the latch is forward by the handle. I would spray the latch mechanism with some fine oil to see if there is improvement before taking the door apart. If it improves, a more thorough job can be done with the panel off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVES89 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 2seater is right about the oil, but I find the real repair to make the lock actuator work right is to look at the little pin that goes through the actuators rubber boot. In my opinion it acts like a knife and cuts the rubber boot making it hard for the actuator to do its job. Take a real small diameter hose and put it in the actuator rubber and then slide the pin into the hose. It will be a real tight fit but it will give you a positive action to lock unlock the door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
