BMW E90 Door Lock Actuator Replacement DIY 

How did you disconnect the connector on top of the actuator

My issue is a lil different I can unlock both doors on my E92 with the key fob but I can’t lock my driver door with the button on the key, the passenger door locks tho I have to pull the manual key out to lock the driver door

How did you manage to keep the locking barrel rod intact? Magic? 😂

Thank you 🙏

Amazing video

Does it not lock without the door panel on?

Good Evening . Thank you for this video, I have a 2006 BMW E90 316I. My Right Rear Door is locked - the lock is broken. I have opened the wallpaper, but from all the places I tried it does NOT open. What should I do? If I open the two door support hinges will I be able to open the door? It does NOT open at all. What should I do to open it? Thank you.

Hey man I’m about to do this, but I was considering taking an old actuator off of a junkyard car. Should I be concerned about the remote connecting to that actuator? And is there any programming steps I need to take if I buy a new one or use an old one?

Man I followed step by step on my passenger side and everything worked until I installed the trim again and now none of the 4 doors lock. Any idea what I did wrong?

iam stuck at removing the upper part of the actuator inside the door. How did you remove the upper part?

Hanging the panel was a good idea; using the bungee's metal clip and the metal pry-bar on paint -not so much. Broke parts off: BMW there'salways a way to do it right!

Will the same part work for a 2011 328i ?

How did you get that last connection off?

How you even get the door open

4:20 how did you disconnect that?
