Door lock actuator issue
Door lock actuator issue
Sorry if this is documented somewhere that I couldn't find, but all I seemed to find was completely failed actuator rebuild knowledge.
Context: I was removing a tint from my door windows, and the installers did such a good job with full coverage that I had to take the door cards off to get the entire film and residue off of the glass. When I put my doors back together, my door locks, which I hadn't touched, of course then had an issue. I love my MINI! Now the passenger side one sounds like it is still trying to actuate even after it is locked/unlocked, and my drivers side works fine apart from only doing half travel. I checked the posts for bends and things and the pins that hold them on are ok, really not sure why it is that the driver wont actuate FULLY in the unlocked position, and unsure if I should be concerned about the noise on passenger. Here is a video of the issue. Any and all help would be appreciated, even if its pointing me to a thread I couldn't find. Thanks NAM!
