Dude you are amazing! I'm going to be doing this on the drivers door. It's amazing how many tips and tricks you gave in just a short video. Many thanks indeed! 🍻

My 16 year old daughter and I just followed the video and changed the actuator with one we bought on Amazon. Thank you for the tips! One thing that was challenging was reinstalling the door panel in the window area.... We ultimately removed the rubber seal and attached it to the door, then 'pushed' the panel against it until everything clicked in. Figuring out how to reinstall that part of the panel took the most time for us.

Thanks for this video. Helped a lot and saved me a lot of money. I will say putting the door panel back on was difficult for this first timer, everything else was pretty smooth.

Love the vids Nick ! I wanted to always be an automotive mechanic at first but then I got the opportunity to become a Mechanic Apprentice for Heavy Duty Diesel at only 17 years old which is just crazy to me. It’s similar to automotive and I honestly would highly highly recommend you giving heavy duty diesel a shot some day even if it’s years from now, I guarantee you’ll love it as much as automotive if not more! Keep up the great work and hope you have a happy new year!

This is a good video, but on the driver side you also need to line up the lock/unlock mechanism, this is impossible without removing it. What you need to do is the remove the part where you stick the key in: there is a small black plug on the side of the door at the same level as the outside door handle. When you remove it there is a small plastic phillips screw which you need to loosen up until the lock comes out and then you place the actuator in place and tightened, then put the lock back in place and tighten the previous loosened screw and put the plastic cover in place.

Quick question. I was able to successfully replace the front left passenger door actuator and it works now with unlocking and locking with the key fob. The only thing that doesn’t work properly now is when someone is on the passenger side and the door is lock and they go and open the door from the inside it doesn’t automatically unlock when before it did. Any idea what it can be? Or is it because it’s aftermarket? I checked everything and it all looks installed correctly.

Hello great video my wife has a Camry 2016 everything works on her door but she can’t open from inside does she need this part for it to work?

Possibly. You would have to pull the interior door panel off and look inside. It’s possible the linkage from the door handle inside came undone either at the handle or the door lock actuator shown in this video and pulling the handle is not actually doing anything. Also You would know if the linkage came undone based on how it feels compared to pulling the handle on a good working door.

Now what if all 4 of mine went bad at the same time? Does that mean its just the driver doors actuator or should i be replacing all 4? Or can i put a meter on them somehow?
@LetsDriftMedia
Ай бұрын
I highly doubt all 4 door lock actuators went out at the same time, I would check the fuses first or rule out a faulty switch before replacing all 4 actuators. You can use a scan tool or a power probe to actuate them individually.
