    I appreciate you posting this. I had to change the driver side latch on my wife's 06 Grand Prix. Not exactly the same but after some swearing and tears, I did get it back together. Your video helped with several of the important steps. Thank you.

    Wow. I think this is possibly my problem that I just encountered. Put the car in park and my door didn't unlock nor does my clicker work. You hear the clicker engaging something but it's not locking or unlocking. Had to use my key. The video is very detailed. I've come to this video site before for my mom's car and ordered a part from 1A. Great videos and great customer service. This company is the real deal.
    On the other hand....I would gladly pay a GM dealer or mechanic to do this task for me. It looks tedious.

    My problem is with the rear door lock actuators on my 2009 Pontiac G6, is the actuator a universal part for all the doors or is it just door specific? I found this video very helpful because I have a guide on how to take apart my door and to not crack or miss anything.

    • @1AAuto
      @1AAuto  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      We currently do not carry this particular part, they might be side specific.

  • @loganshrader5866
    @loganshrader5866 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My problem is the aftermarket replacement doesn't have the same connection for the door handle cable. The stock one slides in like in your video. The aftermarket actuator has a circle for a cable to slide through. From what I have found all the aftermarket acuators have the round circle for the cable. Any suggestions how to make the stock cable work?

    The door lock actuator may be bad. When the go bad, it usually gets a little tougher to lock and unlock them lock. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

  • @1AAuto

    you may be able to get one from the dealer, or if you have a telescoping magnet, you should be able to get it out with that. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

    06 grand prix; same door. video was hugely helpful. does the actuator need to be aligned to the striker in some way. have done the job twice, everything works properly till i put finishing touches. close the door and cannot reopen in any way!

    • @1AAuto
      @1AAuto  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +malcolm simmons Thank you for checking us out. The actuator should install one way onto the striker if necessary. It could be that the actuator once connected is defective and causing you not to open in anyway. 1aauto.com

    Hi! I had a question. The only problem we have is the drivers door wont open from the inside. All other doors work. And when I pull the driver side handle lights on the dash flicker....do you think it is still the actuator?

  • @juanp8917
    @juanp8917 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My problem on my wife’s 2008 Pontiac G6 is both rear doors wont lock or unlock with the remote control or the lock buttons inside the car. Would this be caused by a bad actuator as well?
    Thanks!

    Hey I have a question if someone can please answer! I have a pontiac g6 2006. When my car is on the driver's side door won't lock. All the other doors do. But when the car is off the door does lock when I hit the lock button on it. What could be the issue. I just put on a new little unlock lock button but it's still doing it. Please and thank you

  • @stevstrums23
    @stevstrums23 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The problem with my g5 power locks is that they only work the first time, and move like they want to unlock any time i try to lock or unlock after that. i figure its the lock actuators (both sides) but have read of ppl replacing them and having the same problem.. is it a fuse or electrical issue instead?

  • @coachklk66
    @coachklk66 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    So my actuator is junk but the door is closed and won't open. Any suggestions to be able to get the door open to replace the actuator . It looks hard enough to do with the door open , probably impossible with it shut. Its a 2010 g-6

  • @dalemihocik4732
    @dalemihocik4732 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    If doing the passenger side you don't have to remove the door handle assembly . Just reach in and free the rod from the yellow retainer and save yourself some work .

      If there's power going to the door lock actuator and it isn't working, more than likely the door lock actuator has gone bad.
