In this video, I show you how to replace the door lock actuator on a Pontiac Vibe, Toyota Matrix, and many other vehicles that share this same, common lock actuator mechanism. Parts can be easily obtained on Amazon for $35, or on E-Bay as low as $20 including shipping. This part I replaced cost $20.14 with shipping and worked excellent. Replacing it isn't hard, but it is a bit finicky. At times, you almost need 3 hands to hold a couple of things in place, but overall, if you take your time you can get this done fairly quickly and easily. I only needed a Philips screwdriver, a flathead screwdriver to pop off a couple of covers, and a 10mm wrench or socket. I did this on my daughter's little car without her knowing it, so it will be a nice little surprise for her.
