Description
Electric central locking door lock for the front passenger door for Peugeot 308 vehicles.
This used electric door lock unit is a direct replacement for the front passenger (right-hand) door on Peugeot 308 models and integrates with the vehicle’s central locking system. It operates the latch and locking mechanism electrically, allowing remote locking/unlocking and ensuring the door remains securely latched while driving. Ideal for professional workshops and experienced DIYers who need a reliable replacement part identified by OEM and aftermarket reference numbers.
Function And Typical Symptoms
The door lock assembly houses the latch, actuator motor and linkage that control locking/unlocking and door release. When the mechanism starts to fail, common symptoms include intermittent locking/unlocking, grinding or clicking noises during operation, inability to lock or unlock the door with the remote or central locking switch, or the door not latching/remaining closed properly. In some cases, electrical faults (broken wiring or connector corrosion) cause a complete loss of function.

Installation Recommendations
Recommended for installation by an experienced mechanic or a competent DIYer familiar with door trim removal and vehicle electrical systems. Key steps and precautions:
- Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting work to avoid short circuits and prevent accidental airbag deployment.
- Carefully remove interior door trim and any moisture barrier to access the lock unit. Keep fasteners and clips organized.
- Disconnect the electrical connector and any linkage/rods connected to the latch—note their routing and clip positions for correct reassembly.
- Remove the retaining bolts/screws and extract the old lock unit. Fit the new unit in the correct orientation and secure with appropriate fasteners.
- Reconnect linkage and electrical connector, then test locking/unlocking operation (remote and manual) and door latching before refitting trim.
- Ensure all seals and moisture barriers are properly reinstalled to prevent water ingress.
Why This Part Commonly Fails
- Wear Of Mechanical Components: Plastic gears, pawls or latch components can wear or break over time, causing poor engagement or noisy operation.
- Actuator Motor Failure: The small electric motor inside the actuator may burn out or lose torque after prolonged use.
- Water Ingress And Corrosion: Damaged or improperly seated door seals and moisture barriers allow water into the mechanism, corroding metal parts and connectors.
- Connector And Wiring Issues: Corroded or damaged electrical connectors/wiring can cause intermittent or permanent loss of power to the actuator.
- Mechanical Impact Or Misuse: Door impacts or forced closure/opening (e.g., slamming with latch misaligned) can deform components or break mounting points.
Practical Tips
- Always test the new lock’s function (lock/unlock, manual release and central locking integration) before reassembling the door trim.
- Replace any brittle plastic clips or damaged rods during installation to ensure long-term reliability.
- Keep the moisture barrier intact and reseal any damaged sections to reduce the risk of future corrosion or electrical faults.
Suitable for workshops and skilled DIY installers who search by part number. Match the listed product codes to the number on the existing part to confirm fitment before purchase.
