passenger door lock problem

**jeff_c** · 25-08-2008 10:03 AM

how ironic, this is starting to happen to my euro as well, the front passenger's side lock is very slow to unlock either using the remote/interior central locking button.

I was quoted $180 by the dealer when I took my car in for service last Friday, unfortunately my car is outta warranty already

Is the actuator the most likely part that is causing this problem?

I am about to spend $180 for the actuator (from Dealer) and get my local mechanic to install, the last thing it to buy it and too find out that it could be some other part in the door.

yeah common as, saw it happen when I was in dealer land. Mum's did it under warranty. Mine has played up a few times. Waiting for it to die before I replace it

Just a question, does it have to be a genuine Honda actuator?

My passenger door has died on me...

My driver side acutator months ago. Unfortunately the warranty on the car already expired. Honda in Perth quoted me approx $320 incl installation. Since then I have been using the key to manually lock/unlock the door. Too expensive from dealer.
Anyone in Perth know of a good installer if i get the part separately and does anyone know the part number of the actuator for the driver's side?

Tony but you can help me!

Im in Sydney and im after a reliable auto electrician/alarm installer to do the fix. I had an aftermarket alarm installed a few months ago but the installer isnt available so i need alternatives. So, can anyone recommend any auto electricians? =)
