Description
Overview
This is a direct-fit right front passenger door lock (electric central locking unit) for the Citroën Xsara. Designed for PSA group vehicles under part number 9136J2, the unit secures the door and operates the central locking system via an integrated actuator and latch assembly. It restores reliable locking and unlocking of the right front door.
Key Features
- Direct replacement for factory door lock units on Citroën Xsara (1997–2006).
- Restores central locking functionality for the right front passenger door.
- Intended for professional workshops and competent DIY mechanics.
Function And Common Faults
The lock combines a mechanical latch with an electric actuator that moves the locking mechanism when central locking is engaged. Typical failure modes include worn actuator motor or gears, corrosion and water ingress, damaged linkages, or electrical connector/wiring faults. Symptoms include the door not locking or unlocking, intermittent operation, or unusual noises from the door cavity.
Replacement Guidance
We recommend replacement by a qualified mechanic; experienced DIYers can follow the steps below. Typical replacement procedure: disconnect the vehicle battery for safety, remove the interior door trim and water barrier, disconnect the electrical connector and linkage rods, unbolt the lock assembly from the door shell, install the new unit and reconnect linkages and electrics, test central locking operation, then reassemble the door trim. Ensure all fasteners and clips are refitted securely.
Maintenance Tips
To prolong service life, keep door drainage channels clear, lubricate latch contact points with suitable grease, avoid high-pressure washing of door seams, and check wiring and connectors periodically for corrosion.
