Description
Front right door lock for Peugeot 207 hatchback and estate. Front passenger door.
This replacement door lock is designed for the front passenger (right) door of the Peugeot 207 hatchback and estate (SW). It integrates the mechanical latch and the central locking actuator to secure the door and operate remote locking. The unit fits original mounting points and works with the door linkage and electric connector used on standard Peugeot 207 door assemblies. Commonly sought by part number, this lock is a direct-fit option for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable latch and central locking operation.

Function
The door lock assembly performs two primary functions: it latches and secures the door mechanically, and it provides electric actuation for central locking. The actuator motor moves the internal linkage to lock/unlock the door; the latch keeps the door closed and releases when the handle or remote actuator is operated.
How It Is Replaced
Replacement is straightforward for professionals and experienced DIYers with basic tools. Typical steps:
- Remove the interior door card (carefully release clips and screws) to access the lock unit.
- Disconnect the electric connector to the actuator and unclip or remove the mechanical linkage rods from the lock.
- Unscrew the fixing bolts that secure the lock assembly to the door shell and remove the old unit.
- Install the new lock in the reverse order: secure bolts, reconnect linkage rods and electrical connector, and refit the door card.
- Check operation of the handle, lock, and central locking function before final reassembly.
Installation Recommendations
- Work on a cool, dry surface and take care not to damage door trim clips when removing the door card.
- Inspect and clean the door latch striker on the body for corrosion and alignment; lubricate moving parts with a suitable grease to prolong life.
- Ensure all linkage rods and clips are correctly seated and the electrical connector is fully engaged before testing.
- Test locking/unlocking with both the interior switch and remote control to confirm full functionality before completing assembly.
- Disconnecting the battery is recommended as a precaution when working on electric components to avoid short circuits; follow standard safety procedures.
Why This Part Most Commonly Fails
Door lock assemblies on Peugeot 207 commonly fail due to wear and environmental factors. Typical causes:
- Water ingress and corrosion that damage internal mechanisms or the actuator motor.
- Worn plastic components and clips inside the latch or on linkage rods leading to misalignment or loss of function.
- Electrical faults in the actuator motor or connector caused by corrosion, broken wires, or connector damage.
- Mechanical stress from misaligned door strikers or repeated forceful closing, accelerating wear of the latch surfaces.
Notes For Mechanics And DIYers
When replacing the lock, verify smooth mechanical operation and reliable electrical response. Lubrication of the latch and checking striker alignment often avoids premature return visits. Use the referenced product codes when searching stock to increase the chance of a direct-fit unit. After installation, confirm central locking and manual operation across all door positions to ensure correct fitment.
