Description
Product Overview
This electric central locking actuator is a direct-fit replacement for the door lock mechanism used on compatible PSA vehicles. The unit operates the central locking system to lock and unlock the door via a small electric motor and mechanical linkage. It is commonly located inside the door shell, attached to the latch assembly.
Key Features And Benefits
- Electrically operated actuator for central locking systems.
- Direct-fit design for easy installation when the correct part number is matched.
- Often referenced and searched by part numbers for fast identification and ordering.
Symptoms Of A Failing Unit
Typical signs that the door lock actuator is failing include intermittent or complete inability to lock/unlock the door with the central locking, grinding or whirring noises inside the door, or the lock working only when the door is manually operated. Electrical faults or connector corrosion may also mimic actuator failure.
Common Causes Of Failure
Actuator failures are usually caused by motor wear, stripped gears or broken linkages, water or moisture ingress and corrosion inside the door, or electrical connector and wiring problems. These issues tend to appear after long service life, high mileage or exposure to road salts and moisture.
Replacement And Installation Guidance
General replacement steps for a door lock actuator (professional or experienced DIY recommended):
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent short circuits and protect vehicle electronics.
- Remove the inner door trim and moisture barrier to access the lock assembly.
- Disconnect the electrical connector and any locking rods or linkages from the actuator.
- Unbolt the lock/actuator assembly from the door and remove it carefully.
- Install the new unit, reattach linkages and connectors, and test the locking function before reassembling the door trim.
After installation, confirm smooth operation using the key fob, door switch and manual lock to ensure the mechanism and central locking control module are functioning correctly.
Fitment Advice
Note: The product title indicates a left door unit, while the original short description referenced the right door. Always verify the exact part number and the vehicle door side before ordering or fitting. If central locking issues persist after replacement, inspect wiring, connectors and the vehicle’s central locking module.
