  • Doors not locking, actuator stuck

    So I had power doors added with my alarm in 2009 from bestbuy, now it seems that I can't lock my doors. Try manually and their stuck in the unlock position, even when I use the remote to lock them. Was just the passenger side , but now the drivers side is doing the same thing. Do the actuators go bad in the unlock position. Never messed with them before or door actuators, ordered a universal set for $13 shipped, and will pull the doors apart to examine when I get them. Just wanted to see if anyone else knew anything about aftermarket door locks.

    Not sure if they go bad, but it wouldn’t suprise me. When I was in my 02 and my bcm was going bad and I was messing with it, I was in the car and locked the doors and my power fried. When the power fried the door locks got stuck locked and I could not overpower them manually to open the doors up- I essentially was locked in the car.

    So it doesn’t suprise me the reverse can happen as well

      Yeah, I hope either I can fix it or I'll just go back to manual locks.

        Went ahead and pulled the drivers door apart, luckily its just the adjustment screw. Got the passenger side done, now that I know where the adjustment screw is on them , don't even have to take the door apart, just the screws and pull it back alittle and I can get to the screws.
