Title: Drivers Door Lock
Post by: Kaycee on 10 September 2009, 16:55:49

Hi guys
my 2002 3.2 Elite is not Locking correctly
yesterday unlocked car and all buttons came up except drivers tried again and it came up very slugishly .
Today would not come up at all but i had this problem last winter put a bit of wd40 on it thru the screw holes and was ok . Now its given up all together the card looks like it will come off ok my question is:=
could i change the solenoid with out taking out all the lock mechanism and is it visible on removal of the card i await your knowledgable replies

Once door card removed its just visible & removavble, I have just replaced the solenoid on my drivers door, may have second hand one for sale if you need one think its will fit later models as there are a cple solenoids just different connections i beleive, need the part number off it to be sure. :y

I finally got round to changing the drivers door solonoid with the excellent advice and help from welung was pretty easy really only problem was the wiring plug to the solonoid i could not compress the clips because of the limited room however i slacked off the lock screws and used a screwdriver to prise up the clip on the door side and got it of was a bit fiddly getting it into position but went in ok only thing was the wiring loom plug went in very easy too easy i thought but it was clipped in so all ok took about an hour start to finish
Thanks to all for the advice and special thanks to welung you are stars
