- This is instructions for how to replace the small motor in your rear door lock actuator. If your rear doors won't lock/unlock with the rest of your doors you can use this part to repair your rear power locks. This part(81447-4d500) is normally used to repair the power sliding door. I have successfully used it to repair the lock actuator. Keep in mind the replacement unit has a slightly shorter, metal, spindle. I don't believe they sell the original motor separately. Dorman sells an actuator # 759-508($40) that will replace the passenger rear lock actuator. This part is technically sold as a replacement lift gate actuator for the Kia Sportage 2005-2009. They don't sell a driver's rear version of this actuator but you can crack them open and swap the "original" motor/spindle with your bad one. I have not had any problem with the shorter, metal spindles and the motors are cheaper to replace ($12-15).
Thank you for making this video! I have a 2014 Kia Sedona, no power door, and this is exactly what I needed to replace the actuator. Thank you!
I just did same thing as you showed. Worked perfectly. Thanks a lot. $27 on Amazon here in Ontario.
I got the part and it was spec'd for kia sedona door locks, but not for the hatch. It had a much larger worm gear than the one in the rear hatch. I removed the worm gear from the new one, put the old worm gear on this motor and assembled. When I tried it, the hatch would do the opposite of what the doors did (unlock when the rest locked and vice versa). So I couldn't get the connector apart and just cut the two wires and swapped them. It all works now. It was a real pain, but I'm frugal and feel great joy saving $100.00 since the reality is everyone is on a fixed income, we can only buy so much stuff in any given year. This video inspired me. Its a shame product manufacturers would rather have you buy a part for $120.00 that you don't really need, as opposed to getting a $10.00 part that will repair the issue. 20 years ago if my vacuum cleaner didn't work I'd trash it and buy a new one. Now I'd install a new switch and be good as new. It feels great fixing everything.
I just finished replacing the door lock actuator motor in my '08 KIA Sedona. Thanks to this video I saved myself well over a hundred dollars. The dealership wanted to sell me the entire sealed unit with the gears and all for $115.00. I was able to purchase the MOTOR ONLY on Amazon for $14.00!! The installation was simple thanks to the video.
Glad it helped. There is a very good chance your other rear door lock will also fail in the future. These Sedona's are notorious for "power sliding door" and "door lock actuator" failures specifically due to these little motors. btw if you have a power sliding door that isn't working, it's a very similar fix. you just have to pull the power sliding door motor instead of the door lock actuator.
@@erickim6533 How do you find the motor you need? I have 2014 Kia Rio Sx
@@kreal3218 I would search "2014 Kia Rio Sx right rear door lock actuatior" usually it pops up on Amazon or Ebay.
Changed motor to operate doors but still wouldn’t open I now no why , never even realise their was two , real massive thank to you
Thank God I have not been able to repair my doors for six months. THANKS A LOT
I could fix door problem just replacing motor because of your video. Thank you for your posting
Thanks for the video. You don't need to pull the arm off. I just did one of mine and left the arm on. I heated my utility knife and made the initial opening. The rest came very easily. I just need the new motor now. Again thanks for the vid. Good job!
By the way, before you screw the unit back on the lock mechanism, you may want to attach the actuator to the electrical connector and try the power locks to see if it works. I will try that with mine before I put it all back together.
Is there a fuse that controls the door lock accuator or one fuse for the door lock/unlock assembly?
Marc Cummings I actually stumbled upon the fuse for the rear door lock in my 2012 Kia Sedona ..it’s located behind the car jack panel in the rear on right side..there are also fuses and relays for things like defogger and power windows , tail gate, lift gate , etc
I have a Kia Carnival 2008, the power door is broken
That was my question thanks for answering and adding this to the video on these comments Im also fixing my rear power slidding door locks ..
One of my rear sliding door locks are fixed thanks in part to you, will go do the other one now. Just wanted to say thanks for the video first, I appreciate it. Have a good one. When i first put the locking mechanism back in, i tried my key with baited breath and no way it worked. Unbelievable. I purchased last month from a dealer and did not realize the back doors were not locking for a whole month ! The dealer sold me it not even knowing they were not working. Lol.
Your video helped out me out a lot. I did not have a razor knife, so i used a sharp carving knife. I did not need to use a hammer, but used slight cutting motions which quickly entered the seem so easy in fact. I messed up by not realizing I was at the housing around the screw hole when i started expanding the seam and promptly snapped off the corner around the screw hole. No matter it kind of held the seam together enough when i put it all back together. So much so I did not bother gluing.
Glad to hear you were able to fix it. It turns out these little motors go bad OFTEN. I still haven't found a part number for the motor w/plastic spindle. The gold spindle is actually the replacement motor for the power sliding door(which also goes bad often). They seem to work just fine for the door lock actuator and for $12 I can't complain. Btw for anyone who has power sliding doors that aren't functioning, this motor is most likely your culprit. You should be able to unscrew it from the door lock assembly and replace the motor in a similar fashion. Here's a video for power sliding door repair th-cam.com/video/hVG4p9QJHk0/w-d-xo.html . He also shows you how to remove the door lock assembly from the car.
I managed to fix the second door a lot faster and easier. However, this morning the first door seemed to be jamming a bit. Turns out that the casing was flexing open a bit, so I put a third nut / bolt in to seal the housing properly. Didn't like the idea of gluing it down. Now its working great. Certainly feels good to fix it yourself.
As for the difference in length of the plastic to brass spindle, if its an issue I will just 3d print a longer holder for it so its more securely held in place. Don't think its an issue though.
Excellent demonstration It taught me a lot.
Thank you.
That's a great video. Thank you for that. It would be great if you could also make a video on how to get to the actuator motor, meaning how to strip the plastic off the door etc.
Kind regards
I want to thank you for sharing.this video, really appreciate it.
Thank you. Saved me some money!
Thank you so, so much for this video.
Tnx from bottom of my heart
This looks great - but I can't find a video explaining how to take the part out in the first place!
Looks like you can do the same with the trunk (liftgate, tailgate). The motor size is different though. It should be the 2007-2010 Entourage motor available for $10. Otherwise the whole bell crank runs about $120 from the dealership. The liftgate is even easier to do than the sliding doors.
you don't happen to have a part number do you? I thought the sliding door actuator would fit, but I was obviously wrong.
LOL I wish I read your post sooner. I got this motor, only to find it had a over sized worm gear and reversed polarity. I did put the old worm gear on this motor and cut the wires to reverse polarity and it works but your solution using the correct part is better.
Thanks for the video
thank you so much great video
Good idea but holding it in a vice or vice grip would be better! But You have solved a problem.
Anyone know if this mechanism (part) came similar on front door...
And could be fixed same way?
Thanks a million
great video. i used this when i replaced my dad's. so thanks for making this. now my dad's driver side passenger sliding door latch won't lift, and the door will not close latch. do you have a link to a video showing the replacement of that latch? have you replaced that latch part before? i seem to be hitting dead-ends finding anything on it. thanks much!
thank you ...I need to do this
Thanks allot
Mine is the tailgate lock that's not locking. At first it wouldn't unlock. Is this the motor for the tailgate too? Currently I can hear all the door locks click and click two or three times when starting the car and all but the tailgate will lock with the remote. As a result the horn won't 'honk' indicating I've got all the doors locked. One dealer wanted $120 just to check it out, I was thinking I could replace a LOT of lock motors for that much!
I had to replace the handle on the tailgate and took it apart. here's a video link (not mine) th-cam.com/video/-1GsmTzRx58/w-d-xo.html these are not the same motors for the tailgate. I would take it apart and fiddle with it before I ordered anything. The handle has been known to go bad but not the tailgate lock.
It's a different size motor, but it's easier to get to. Search 2007 Entourage motor, looks the same, just shorter gearshaft. 20mm long instead of 35.
@@user-qt7et2xn2w If memory serves me correctly, the diameter on the trunk worm gear is 6mm and the one in this video has 7.5mm diameter.
Can you test it before install it
Has anyone been able to find the exact replacement motor? The motor used (with the shorter brass gear) is actually for the sliding door actuator, not the door lock actuator. I'm wondering of anyone has found the motor with the longer plastic gear. Although I don't doubt the motor used will work, without the bushing to hold it in place at the end it's less stable than it should be.
Where do you get that and about how much
Any idea if there is a part like this for a 2016 Sedona?
What about the cargo gate lock actuator? Have you got a video for that as well?
See my reply above. If you need specifics just ask and I can give you some pointers.
Does anyone know if the same motors for the sliding rear doors will work with the driver and passenger side front doors?
I have the same question: My passenger front door lock is not working. I need to know of this actuator works for the front door locks. Anybody?
@@sandysmithee1500 I have been waiting for a reply all this time and nothing. I just now decided to buy one. When it comes in and we get it installed, ill let you know if it works.
@@sandysmithee1500 I have finally gotten the time to look into this passenger door lock thing. It is NOT the same motor used in the same motor used in this video. From what I can gather the whole actuator needs to be replaced. The part number for that is 81320-4D011
@@thelegendricky Thanks for the info!
@@sandysmithee1500 Most welcome. I have ordered an actuator for our van. Hopefully, it will be here this coming week and I will let you know how it works out.
mines just beeps and wont open manually
Great video I was able to fix the internal lock but now the external door handle stopped working. Seems like a problem with the cables. Any ideas?
yes. the cable that is the most inside connection is for the external door. It's the last one you would remove before taking the large actuator assembly out behind the vertical plastic guide.
How do you remove the lock actuator

Awesome video! Does anyone have the part number for the tailgate / lift gate / hatchback (whatever) lock actuator motor? Looks the same but the gearing different. Shorter gear and tighter twist. I see JO's comments about the 2007 entourage, but I still can't find the part on Amazon or Ebay.
This video was great for the slider door ... got mine working again today for $12 and about 2 hrs.
See my comments if you want to fix your lift gate the way I did. Or, do what I would do next time. That is order the motor without a worm gear on it and then put the worm gear on it from your bad motor. Here is one suggestion for a motor, you can search it on amazon 10mm Flat Shaft Central Door Lock Actuator Motor FC-280PC-22125
@@acoustic4037 awesome! Thank you very much!!!
Thank you for the video
Does anyone know this may work with front passenger door lock?
