Description
Electric central locking actuator for the right rear door. For Peugeot 206 and 406 Combi. Passenger Side.
This electric door lock is designed for the right rear door of Peugeot 206 and 406 Combi models and replaces the central locking actuator that operates the door latch on the passenger side. The unit is suitable for professional garages and DIY mechanics searching by part number (913870) and offers direct replacement of a failed actuator to restore reliable central locking operation.
Technical Information
- Manufacturer: Stellantis (Peugeot/Citroën OEM)
- Model: Peugeot 206; Peugeot 406 Combi
- Product Codes: 913870
- Other Numbers: N/A
Function And Application
The actuator converts electrical signals from the central locking system into mechanical movement to lock and unlock the door latch. It is integrated with the door latch assembly and is essential for remote and central locking functions. Compatible with the right rear door (passenger side) of the listed Peugeot models.
Installation Recommendations
- Before starting, disconnect the vehicle battery to prevent short circuits and accidental triggering.
- Remove the inner door trim carefully to access the lock mechanism; take care with plastic clips and wiring for power windows and speakers.
- Disconnect the electrical connector and any linkage rods attached to the actuator. Note the orientation of rods and clips for reassembly.
- Unscrew the fastening screws and remove the old actuator from the latch assembly. Check for damaged clips or broken mounting points.
- Fit the new actuator in the correct position, reconnect rods and electrical connector, then test lock/unlock function before refitting the door panel.
- Use a light dielectric grease on linkages and a corrosion inhibitor on connectors if exposed to moisture. Avoid over-tightening plastic fasteners.
Common Failure Reasons
Door lock actuators typically fail due to mechanical wear, broken plastic gears, seized motor bearings, corrosion from water ingress or road salt, and damaged or stretched linkage rods. Electrical issues such as poor connector contacts or wiring damage can also prevent the actuator from operating. These failures are more likely in older vehicles or cars exposed to damp conditions and frequent use.
Notes For Mechanics And DIYers
This part is often searched for by its product number (913870). When replacing the actuator, verify smooth movement of the latch and correct alignment of linkages to prevent premature wear. After installation, perform several lock/unlock cycles and check remote central locking operation to ensure reliable function.
