BMW Door Lock Actuator - Won’t Open From Inside or Outside - Removal & Fix 

Thank you, this helped with my 125i coupe. When I replaced the lock actuator i didn't refit the internal cable correctly. The door got stuck but this helped me correct my mistake

Great in depth video!

great help dude thanks!

Muchas grasias x subir videos asi hoy en el taller q trabajo me fue muy util con un BMW 550i

as i was changing my lock anyway i thought i would have a tinker with the none responsive lock, i found if leant over to the passenger door and pulled the interior handle and began to toggle the interior lock button on the dash. Somehow i heard a mechanical click and i felt it through the handle too. Well what do you know, the door opens and closes as it should. it didn't respond through the remote or dash button but did lock on the door button and released to open from the handle. I've changed my lock and all is good now. I thought this tactic might work for someone else whilst they wait for their new lock mechanism to arrive.

Thanks for the video... When you say 'out', I know you are Canadian, the same way Dr Jordan peterson says it😉

So are u pulling the handle while trying to push down on that metal peice???

Hello, I replaced the lock and the locking cable with a new one, everything works fine until I use the central locking, then the problem returns, do you know what it could be?

i have pressed down on the thing you showed and am still not able to open te door

If it's the Driver side door You can use the key to open the door. So you don't have to take all the extra stuff off

you safe my life tyyy

My door on g30 does not open from outside only after I lock it lock comes up but it does not open but if I open it from inside it goes. Do you know what this could be?

I would get a new door lock tomorrow. But the car it comes from doesnt have comfort Access, but mine got that feature, will it still work? Or do I Need a different One? Best regards

What if the door can open from just the inside? Could there be something wrong with the exterior handle? Or is it still the actuator?

Will this work on a f13 bmw m6 ?

Done all that u showed, door still not opening, I have a 2011 f10 (523) any advice

you just saved me £100 if it works for me

I have x3 lock barel broken and remote control not working it’s been parked 2 month $2500 for the bmw to open it and replace the key and lock barel I’m F

stil doesn't open, did exactly everythig same and pushed down quite hard on that while still holding handle in open position. Frustrating

replaced the actuator on my F30 yesterday, pull the black pin all the way up with a pair of pliers and while holding it there press the door unlock button in the car and pull the door handle, now the door is open...tadaaa😄
