Rear Door Lock Stuck

Don t be afraid to use a liberal amount of oil a sticky lock needs the attention.

Rear door lock stuck.

If the problem insists then it will be a new video. You should notice a difference immediately if this takes care of the issue. To change the latch remove the two grommets from the door jamb at the latch. However with a car door lock stuck in the lock position even when you use your car key remote the issue is greater than just the keyway.

Press down on the button on the rear of the wd 40 canister to begin releasing the lubricant into the lock. Care must be taken not to drop the nuts inside the door but the nuts are angled slightly upward so gravity is on your side. When a door ceases to lock and unlock at the press of a button it often means that the door s lock actuator has given up the ghost. Spray the wd 40 into the lock.

1 more try for help. To take on issues with the lock assembly in the door you need to open up the door panel and try to move the assembly. I ve removed the internal plastic door cover and monkeyed around trying to push or pull anything associated with the mechanism. It is crazy but this door does not have a keyhole in the handle and because of the metal framework the actuator is in a total blindspot inside.

The lock actuator consists of a small electric motor that drives. The key will turn the lock mechanism from closed to open but the horizontal handle will not push up. If this step doesnâ t fix the problem the door latch mechanism may need to be replaced. It s actually my rear hatch door and it s crazy but there are not any rods in this door whatsoever.

Hold down the spray button until the wd 40 begins to overflow from the lock opening. Lubricate the assembly and try to move it again.
