@EddiesCustomsandRestorations 2 года назад

Thank you very much and changes are they have gone bad. Weather affects in the sense that the materials get thicker in the colder weather causing more effort from the motor to operate.

@MarcMartinez-q4p Год назад

Both of my back doors won’t unlock when pressing the unlock button on my key it does lock tho when I press the lock button on my keys. I swapped the left rear actuator but when I was testing to see if it works to unlock it did the exact same thing as the old One it locks but won’t unlock is it because I have to change both actuators? I have no idea what the problem can be. Thank you again !!

@EddiesCustomsandRestorations Год назад

You may have gotten a defective one or you can have a slight break in one of the wires twhere the door opens and closes. There id a little rubber boot that covers all the wires going to your back door. After the years of opening and closing, wires can crack. Ive repaired those broken wires before. Hopefully its not the case but other than that, thats all i can guess...wish i was there to help...

@williamgreen3065 Год назад

I'm having issues with my door locks locking on their own every time I close the door. Then I'm locked out of my truck. Is that a symptom of a bad actuator? Sometimes they will lock when no one is even near the truck, oh, and the will blow briefly just before it locks each time, Can you advise me on the fix?

@EddiesCustomsandRestorations Год назад

Definately a sign of a bad actuator

@tdmmcl1532 4 месяца назад

if the door cannot unlock, how did you open the door. see the problem with this and other videos. you don't show HOW TO OPEN THE DOOR TO MAKE THE REPAIRS!

@EddiesCustomsandRestorations 4 месяца назад

Just pull the lock up from the inside. This is under the assumption that only ONE out of the 4 doors does not unlock. But yes to unlock the ONE door just pull the lock upward. Same way it's always been.

@timbow50 2 года назад

@davidunderwood3611 Год назад

I changed my driver door outside handle because the plastic threads were broken. I tested everything and it seemed to be working. Trouble is once I lock it and unlock it, the driver door will not open from the inside or outside. Any thoughts on the issue? Thanks.

@EddiesCustomsandRestorations Год назад

Double check and make sure the clip that holds it on is properly installed. It may be shaking loose or shaking off once you lock and unlock

@20tea Год назад

The door handle linkage is out of adjustment. The little yellow clip needs to be closer to the end of the threaded end of the rod when you clamp back together and re-install the linkage to the latch mechanism.

Appreciate this video i have a 2013 Silverado I’m having the same issue my door won’t lock or open plus my service tire monitor light is on any suggestions ?

@EddiesCustomsandRestorations 3 года назад

Youre very welcome. As for the TPMS light, air up your tires to the recommended tire pressure and if the light remains, go to a local tire place perhaps a discount tire which recalibrate your TPMS sensors for free and have them do the calibration. If a sensor doesn't accept the calibration, it will need to be replaced.

@@EddiesCustomsandRestorations thanks… i have one more question i went to the dealer with the problem that I’m having & they told me i need a remote control door lock receiver have you ever heard of this part?

@EddiesCustomsandRestorations 3 года назад

@@Moe504. yes I have generally related but it is just one door that is not locking chances are it will just be the actuator on that door and just a coincidence that the TPMS light came on at the same time.

Great video, I have a 08 silverado 2500, dash says passenger door open while door is closed and running. this same actuator on mine seems wore out, probably is wore out, maybe not sending signal that door is closed. not sure which passenger door its is. Are these actuators left and right side specific to the drivers side rear door, and passenger side and passenger rear door? Thanks

@EddiesCustomsandRestorations 2 года назад

That is correct they are side specific. Thank you for reaching out and good luck on your repairs.

@robertbelknap 2 года назад

@@EddiesCustomsandRestorations thanks for the quick reply, would this be the part causing the passenger door open light being on? Had to take the inside light bulbs out cause they were staying on, cause it thinks the door is open. Thanks.

@EddiesCustomsandRestorations 2 года назад

@@robertbelknap you're welcome. This can be a cause for sure but there are a few other things that can cause this as well like "door ajar" or "door open" sensor can be faulty, BCM (body control module) (rarely the case) but I would check the inexpensive parts first for the sake of the "do it yourself" repair. Replacing everything yourself would literally cost you less than paying someone to do ONE of these jobs.

@robertbelknap 2 года назад

@@EddiesCustomsandRestorations thanks, is the door open sensor a different part completely, or is it a sensor within this part. Thanks

Is it a secret that vehicles are put together by screws ,nuts, bolts, clips and cheap plastic tabs which are the weakest ..I'd rather see the nuts bolts and screws in today's world , it was only cool years ago when we didn't have to fix it every year ..now it's all garbage made disposable plastic parts ..but they charge more for it ???
