Thank you! I just did this fix, took me 2 hours to do this, took my time at a relaxed phase. I did not replace the motor, motor was $10 online and the whole new actuator from SXP was $20.
After watching all these repair videos I'm convinced I should just allow my children to keep crawling in and out through the sunroof. Remember, wherever there's hills there's always a Billy.
Just did this repair today by replacing the whole actuator assembly. I used a multi tool to cut through the plastic near the screws and got the old actuator assembly off. I then used the multitool to cut through the screws (the heads fell off into the door). I then replaced by running a zip tie to secure the new actuator. Piece of cake.
I used a soldering iron on the inside panel side of the lock-tight screw's ( 4-5 min) then slowly backed out the closest screw to reach....I chose to re heat the same screw after only 1 completed turn, which worked out very well. I didn't remove it fully before I heated the next screw and repeated the process. (except I removed the further one completely then was able to finish removing the first one by hand. Even Though I took my time (didn't take a whole lot with this technique) I still had to replace them because I would have stripped them while re-using them. I was prepared with the replacement screws ( i forget which size metric machine screw)
Yes praise God for no Loctite I stripped the screw and was unable to get it out Also thank God for ace hardware having the exact same screws that hold in the part.
my two cents: before removing the bolts, it's work trying to heat the bolts wth a hairdryer or a heat gun, sometimes (not all the times) the bolt looses enough that you dont have to tear apart the actuator. Careful not to burn the actuator if using a heat gun.
Katsumi Hoyos - I used a right angle elbow ratcheted screw driver with a Phillips head. It was a small cheap one someone got me from harbor freight years ago I had never used. Worked like a charm. Allowed me to hold the bolt firm and unscrew the nut from the front.
@@TaflanPix I'm having trouble with the door that doesn't have the mechanical it's manually open and closed the door will not close shut right now I'm using a small chain to keep it closed I need to fix the latches but I don't know if it's both latches or just one can you tell me how and what tools I need
HELP! I replaced the motor in the actuator from a motor from digikey.. now the actuator arm moves when activated to open the door, but the arm doesn't complete the reverse action to get it back to default position.. without the arm back in default position, the door doesn't fully lock open or entirely shut closed... Any thoughts?
Unless video. Thanks for not showing how the locks came out. Not showing the gap to get your hand in the back. Not showing what the lock looks like before you put it in. Thanks for, well, nothing.

Thank you!!! I have replaced the entire actuator assembly in both my doors now and I used your wing nut trick on 3 of the 4 bolts.
Glad to hear it!

Great idea! I fixed it once and it's not working again. This time, I will be using your method to secure this bastard

I think I would have put the wing nut facing the inside of the van where possible then coated them liberally with nail polish to keep them secure.

I have never seen a video where you did not have to lower the window....wow
It might be because it is a 2006. We had to lower the window to remove the panel from the window in the 2004.
How many bolts did you take out?
What type of tool did you use to take the bolts out that fit through the small crack?

Did you buy the motor only or the complete actuator? Do you have a part#?
Just the motor. I don't have the part number readily available. When I did the repair, I googled it and a few other guys gave the part # accurately.
P14346-ND
From digikey . Com
According to other videos.. ordered mine yesterday. God bless!
@@joshuadavis3684 It seems the new part number in 2024 is PAN 14EE12AA1 from digikey , under $5
