Thanks so much. You did a good job. I got my actuator done in less than 2 hours, and everything works. Without your video, I wouldn't have known what i was up against or where to start. Thanks so much. Tom from Canada

They did - Look under the entire door handle on the outside of the car, you'll notice a gap to wedge your key into. Wedge it in, pry off the plastic and it will reveal a regular barrel lock. Here is a picture of what I mean: i.ytimg.com/vi/HycztXefMVw/maxresdefault.jpg

Does the door lock switch on the right rear door have anything to do with the switch the driver uses to lock all the doors because when I press the button I hear all the locks click but when I go and check the doors the right rear door does not lockSo chances are it would be the actuator and not just the switch itself

If you use the rear switch does it lock? Sounds like the actuator 👍👍

Thanks for posting an MK6 video since this is the first one for this repair. I have a problem with my front door which is not the same as the rear. The distance from the opening and to the actuator are further. Any chance you know of someone who did the front driver door? I could not find any videos of it.
