Replaced my door fuse, now passenger door won't lock/unlock

LsuGeaux · 05-05-2015, 01:17 PM

One of my fuses blown yesterday and wouldn't let my doors unlock/lock. I replaced it now the passenger door isn't working. Any ideas?

LsuGeaux · 05-05-2015, 01:47 PM

Anyone heard of any recalls?

I recall you editing your original thread about this and now creating a new one. When you get your satisfying answer you'll just erase it again and move on, so nobody can use it in the future.

That recall?

Wasn't my intentions lol. But I won't edit it anymore since it could be of use further down the road.

It's letting me lock the passanger door but won't unlock it now.

How is it that it's not unlocking?

Because if you know it is locking, it has be unlocking somehow for you to lock it again (and thus realize it is in fact locking). No?

Wtf Are You Guys Saying?

I can unlock it manually if I open the door twice from inside.

Same thing happened to me. One of the two 12v motors inside the lock actuator seized. I repaired it instead of buying a new actuator. Cheap fix! Look for the DIY.

Need to replace the door lock actuator.

by using the search function of course.

but seriously, you probably need to just go ahead & replace your door lock actuator. It could be that yes you did replace the fuse but then it blew out again. This is a classic symptom of bad door lock actuator.
