I took the two silver bolts out on the left side of the handle that opens the door so I can get the cable out easier. And then I bolted it back afterwards and then pulled the whole assembly out

I would not be surprised if a mechanic turns down the job even if I'm willing to pay well.

      That whole door is a mystery to me but it’s a good idea to put them back together for stability reasons so you might want to stick some double adhesive tape in there to join the actuator harness to main panel. But if it works maybe it doesn’t need it.

    Just a comment that these instructions won't work in every situation. In my case, I can't open the door at all, thanks to Dodge/Chrysler's defective actuator design. My door is locked shut and part of the instructions here say to open the door to get the panel off. Thanks for putting it together. It looks like quite a few people were helped - just not me 😞.

    • @josephsopala7642
      @josephsopala7642 Рік тому

      There are actually 2 actuators one unlocks the door and the other one pulls it shut. Try disconnecting your car battery for 4 minutes to reset the relays. That might get things working again. Good luck.

      @@josephsopala7642 Thanks. I was able to remove the panel without opening the door. After I did that, I was able to unlock the door just by sliding the bar that connects the lock lever to the actuator. When I did that, the door worked like it should .... for an entire day 😞. So now I think it really is the lock actuator, but I don't think I want to tackle replacing it. More power to you and anyone else who goes through this!

    For anyone who is attempting this there is a more simple way to remove and install the door latch/actuator assembly. First you want to remove the window by removing the outer trim on glass. Remove the 2 bolts holding the window track and slide it over then the window will come out. You'll have much more space to work with and you can remove the whole door card along with everything that is attached to it. And to install it is alot easier to get the window channel over the brace with the window out.

    My symptoms for a 2014 passenger sliding door as as such: If I open the door via button on dash or FOB, it will open, but the little hook that is meant to engage on the latch at the bottom inside rear of the door at the track, does not engage and will sometimes hook and hold with help from me and most of the times not engage. If it does engage, and stays hooked, if I try to close the door with the FOB or dash, it will start closing and ALMOST close but will need a push form my hand to latch and shut. If the hook does not engage, it will. not even try to close on its own. It works fine to open and close manually, and the latch will close the door properly when assisted by me. Based on my description above, has anyone had similar and this fExcellent DIY Fix was the ticket? Thanks in Advance!

      Sounds like your other door lock actuator is busted. The one I replaced was the locking mechanism actuator yours sounds more like the door actuator which keeps it closed. You can actually see it in this video. It looks like a cartridge and is a more expensive but easier fix. Good luck.

      This happened to me. I followed this video. ua-cam.com/video/1s8JfV35BMk/v-deo.html But I couldn't reach in and squeeze the actuator like he did. Instead, after removing the steel thumb lock rod from the handle, I grabbed the rod with both hands about a foot apart so it wouldn't bend. Then I pushed the rod towards the actuator and it unlocked. This way you don't have to remove the 4 T-30 torque screws holding the window cables. That was a pain putting back on. I'm still trying to replace my actuator. Was unsuccessful trying to remove the window rail off the window. I couldn't wiggle out the assembly. So I'm going to try to remove the window first as someone else suggested in the comments.
