Didn’t realize how easy/cheap this was. Dealership charged me $95 for the part and is asking $170 for installation. Might just have to do it myself, thanks for taking the time to make this
Yup super easy
I recently moved a few minutes away and am within walking distance of a auto shop. Just got a quote to get my accuator replaced. They want to charge me $80 for the part and $180 for the installation. No way im doing that. Not even a critical repair. For something serious, I could understand that price. I bought the part on Walmart for $15. Amazon has them for $23. Just going to install it myself when I have the time
The worst part about dealership charging that much is the mechanic gets the smallest percentage for the work. Most of it goes to the dealer and the service advisor
Amazon under 20$
Bonus tip. Attach a string to the green loop of the old part. Pull it through cut the string off and attach to new part. Tape rubber grommet in place so it can’t slide. Pull string from the trunk guiding new green wire through. Carefully help the grommet seat. Remove tape. Feed the rest of the way. Bam! Don’t have to remove any panels 😎
Yup thank you for the tip
Dude! The Honda dealership wants to charge me $399.98 to get the part replaced…. AND IM PROVIDING THE PART! Thank god for this video, gotta go play mechanic for the day now haha
They crazy u can do it urself !! 10 minute job
Had this problem forever and a month ago bought the part on amazon for like 18 bucks, been waiting for a good day to do it and finally did! Thank you so much! 😊❤
Welcome!! Glad u got it done urself
Damn got that done in 20 minutes and got the part for 15 dollars. Thank you!!
Nice good job
This will work as fsr back as 2016 as well, just did mine in about 15 minutes with cleanup time. Thanks for the helpful video!
Nice yeah thanks for the input 2016 and up
Thanks for the video! Took about 15 minutes to change it out. Worst part of it was the clips for the wheel well cover broke so had to go out and buy more!
Yeah those damn clips
Amazing!!!! My Honda is at 139,000 and I need to replace mine. I’m excited to do this myself! Thanks ❤
Welcome update me how it goes
Man thanks a lot ! Cost me 20$ and 20 min to do it, you are rock
Nice good job
You just saved me $300. You’re awesome, thanks! 🤘🏼
Nice good job!!!
It shoukd be illegal for these dealerships to charge hundreds of dollars for a 15-20 min job
But they do
I agree
Dealership charged me $800 to fix exactly that lmao. Thank you for this brother 👏🏽
They messed up its $49 part
That’s rip off
Yeah it was robbery. Quick update though, I fixed it myself and it only took me 1 hour jacking up the car, taking out the prongs with a flat head, taking out the old actuator, and a new $29-49 part from Amazon. Thanks to this video!
@@JpnFn oh ok glad u did it urself
The Dealer Ship is Telling me.
They don't have the part. It's Being
Redesigned. Do you know
About this? Thank You!
Great video. I have a 2016 civic with the same issue. I bought the part from Honda for $75. I will be installing it soon
Nice good luck doing it!!
Went to Honda dealership today. I was told this is what's wrong with my car. Their estimation is just under $600.00 to fix it. That's parts and labor!!
They crazy for this. Its $40 part
i have a 2016 and it just started doing this, ima order the part and do it myself. thanks for the vid!
Welcome
Instead of going through the wheel well, you can put zip tie throught the loop. The plug will easily go back into place.
U can try but it not so difficult
That actuator failing at 15k really shows how cheap Honda went on the parts for these cars. I have a 2017 and I have had issues since I bought it. My wheel locks to the left trying to drive itself even though I have all driving aids turned off and all the electrical is wonky don’t get me started on the rubber window trim and weather trim on the roof 😭 and my actuator just went as well. Ughhh thank you for the video!!
They need to step up their game so many issues ac fuel pump this misfire injectors all kinds of BS
The Hatchbacks are even easier:
Remove all the tools/jack/Funnel from the said panel in the hatch. There you will see that hole for the plug. I used my hands and needle noise plier and a flathead to remove the piece from under the gas cap. 15min max. No need to jack the car up and remove cover :)
Hopes this help
Thanks
good looks bro, saving people A LOT of money
Yup no problem!!
Good video!
Only thing I can suggest is to get a harness to hold your camera/phone while your recording your work. 😁
Sure!! Thanks I got new mount now
I have the same problem I am going to try to fix it myself. Thanks
Thank God for this.
Ok yup
Dude, you're awesome. Thank you for the video.
Welcome!! Glad u like the video and hopefully help u out
wow I am going to try this myself - I have a coupe I pray its as easy as it looks lol
Should be easy
@@RBTheMechanic update i did it by myself ! The only issue I had was the gas tank is super close to the fuel pump actuator so I had to squeeze it out but it wasn’t bad ! Thank you
@@EmpowHerwithJas cool glad u did it!!! Great job!!!
I seen a fix with a ziptie said it was the tension on the green cable?
Note sure but it got to go they made this part cheap
Good looking out. 👍
No problem
Wow thanks for the helpful tutorial
Glad u liked it and was helpful
My door actually doesn’t even stay locked anymore when you push it in. It is always open now and I think it’s so dangerous. Would that be the actuator as well?
Probably so
thanks so much the dealer was about to charge me 260
Dammnnn they crazy I’m glad I found my video this is 10 minutes max
Nice fix
Ripping it out with a prybar and jamming the new one in has gotta be the easiest car work I’ve ever done
lol as long as it’s done!! Good job
Thanks for the video
Welcome!!!
I replace the one in my Honda civic 2018 one week ago and is making that sound again, any idea what can be going on there?
Is it comming from same component check closely to confirm the noise spot cuddle be bad part these are very common to fail very quick
My civic doesn’t have that little clip for the string 😢 how do I get one ? Does it have to be that certain one?
I can get it from dealer
I have the same problem but I have the coupe version.
It's a problem I don't want to fix coz I kinda like the sound. 😂
Lol ok
Haha. sounds like an A10 Warthog.
great vid though. I'll get to it eventually though. For when it's time to sell the car or something.
Ive had this problem for months and got used to the sound. It does sound pretty cool and it has confused so many people as to why my car makes that sound haha. I just bought the replacement part from Walmart for $14. An auto shop tried to charge me $260 for it. Only reason Im actually going to replace it now is cuz the door lock gets stuck and I have to open the gas door from the trunk
I dont understand why you'd take the tire off. Just tie some rope on the loop before pulling the old one out and use the rope to pull yhe new one in. Super easy to fix, hardest part wad taking the old one out but if you tey fron the bottom it pops right out.
To show better
do you need to raise the car? will it work without the jack?
Yeah u can do it without raising the car might be bit tight
@@RBTheMechanic thank you! i’ll try my best
@@samanthamarie6949 welcome update me if u did it or doing it!! Always here to help
You broke the splash guard dude… I hope that was your car and not someone else’s
No I didn’t brake anything owner was right there
Hey my Civic doesn’t make that sound but my gas cap won’t long when i lock the car. I had to press down on the gas cap then lock the car for it to lock in . Should I change the actuator ?
Not sure maybe ur gas cap is no good
What the heck. You are going to scratch the roof of your customers car!! Stop banging the part around so much
Hey Ralph Bob The Mechanic!, is that the same procedure for the auto locks? As in you start your car and you're about to go and then it locks the doors automatically!!👍👍
I’m not sure if ur asking ur auto locks don’t work but ur door like for similar mechanism they also do fail u just got to listen to the sound where it’s comming from
@@RBTheMechanic Ah!, okay got it!!👍👍✌️ Pretty much the same procedure.
My dealership refused to fix it, saying it was a known issue. I fixed it twice myself (super easy) but the same issue with the bzzzzzzzzzzzt when I lock and unlock the car. I'm so sad.
Check to see where it’s coming from it could be lock acuators each door has it so just listen to the sound
🎉 I did it with a fork and butter knife
Nice
Is it the same process for a Civic 2017?
Yup
What is the purpose of the wire plug part that connects in the trunk?
Emergency manual open just incase it dosent open with electrical component because they knew this has and will fail very soon and they needed way to open it to replace it
the problem is my fuel latch isnt opening i have the part but idk how to to open it because it is stuck even after pulling the green cable
Check to see the manual pull release in the trunk
@@RBTheMechanic yea brother have seen that and tried pulling it doesn't works what else can I try ?
@@saifshaheen5429 not sure but u might have to go from bottom fender liner see if u can do somthing down there remove the cover first
I think mine broke cause my gas cap was open at car wash and it opened the complete opposite way chipping paint on my car now it doesn't close while driving only when I lock my car and hold the gas cap closed..
Oh ok well replace it
My car have same problem. But any way to solve this problem without replace this part? Or the sound buzz means this part damage and need to change?
Replace the part END OF STORY part is cheaper than wasting ur time opening it and it might work and go bad again
Where can i buy it
This item is from dealer only
Hello where you buy the part at?
This is dealer item so parts at dealer
where do i buy the parts from?
Buywise
@@RBTheMechanic thank you
Same year same color same problem including ac and fuel pump recall
Yeah ac got 19 year extension warrnty
What is this part number.. I have a 2016 4 dr ex
I show it in the video I believe
@RB The Mechanic I'm sorry.. you did... part ordered.. you saved me a bunch... thanks
There are recalls on the honda civics in 2023
Yup should be recall
I have a same problem. Where are your store? I am very interested I am replace your hand. Can you give me address please
I’m north nj Bayonne ru local?
Don't even replace it. Dealers charge alot for simple things.
Do it urself 20 minutes maxxx it would take u longer to get to dealer
@@RBTheMechanicWhat if you still have bumper to bumper warranty? Will this issue be covered by that?
@@onehitwonder763 I think so depends on coverage but mostlikely yeah
Guys, dealers are just scam.
Yup they r
Replaced 2 months ago. Now its bad again
U should complaint this suckxx
My Dealer said it's Being Redesigned
Maybe that's why?
@@danabiondo9243 well they should refund or recall if they made first one bad design
Jesus Christ dude, easy with the customers car.
It’s fine easy means stay in bed don’t try it
U don't even need to go above the wheel tho lol
