    Today, we are going to replace the lock actuator in the rear of our 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The cheaper one, you know, from Ebay. A part that is going to save us over $70, than the OEM part 5018479AB which comes in around $80 USD and up. So let's take it apart and put in our $10 replacement.

    Hi I just want to say thank you for your video! I’m a gals that does not know much about cars and I recently got a Jeep of the same model and I’m working on it by myself. I changed the lift gate actuator all by myself thanks to your helpful video. So thank you very much for the step by step instructions on this guide.

    Excellent video. Thank you. The advice on getting the white, yellow, and green fastener clips before the project was very helpful, as I broke off several on the removal of the panel.

    Would this also be the reason why the liftgate alarm goes off when driving?

      Yes, that's what ours did several times. It chimed weird once.

    I'm driving an 04 jeep grand cherokee, and intermittently the liftgate open notification pops up even when the liftgate is not or has not been opened. Would this fix help stop that notification?

      There is a signal wire in the deck lid. I would imagine it's either a broken core wire there or more likely it's up towards the wire by the hinge in the rubber protection area. It's normal for this age and happens to a lot of them.

    This might be a long shot but any chance you can confirm whether or not the three different sizes of fasteners are necessary or if any one size will fit all slots? Thanks!

    • @TechReviewbyIrdi
      @TechReviewbyIrdi  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are the 3, BUT- You really don't need the different ones. I found the white ones were doing a good job. Just like legos, just check the fit. I have kits of these, and they are only under $10 for hundreds at a time. Don't fall for going to an autoparts store for Dorman or others that cost $4 and up for like 3 fasteners.

      There's a small hatch that you got to pop open and there's the little green and black lever sometimes just black that you can pop to unlock it

    What if you can’t get the hatch open at all and it’s stuck completely? Can you still access all the screws to get the plastic panel off?

    • @christianalvarado7543
      @christianalvarado7543 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you open the window on the hatch, there are 2 screws where it latches you can remove. You can pull the plastic back after that and if you look inside while pulling the handle you'll see a moving wire. Put the wire into this plastic hole. The plastic breaks easily and it pops out of place often.

      Much cheaper now. Same with all the Mopar stuff, many copy cats that work well. Just check reviews first.
