  • Love your guys's help with something, I have a 98 Sierra manual door lock that rotates freely sometimes. When its cold (I live in the Yukon) the keys are almost impossible to turn and I feel like its gonna bend the key but then the key can spin 360 degrees plus. Is it just in need of some lube and a tighter retaining mechanism?

  • @TheRx350 You would need to remove the door panel on the door and see if there's something that needs to be tightened on the key lock inside of the door. It may have come loose somehow. Hope this helps.

  • @1aauto hi my friend i accidentally took the door lock of my truck and it doesnt close do you think its completely damaged ? if you know a solution pleasee help me

  • @marcobino You may have to play around with the latch adjustment. If it doesn't latch at all. The latching mechanism could be stuck in the closed position. If it is you can usually get a flat head screwdriver in there and open the latches back up. If you're not sure what it's suppose to look like you can refer to the latch on the opposite side of the car. Hope this helps you out.

  • Hi, my 1999 Escalade front passenger door is locked shut. It appears the actuator has seized and won't let the door open. The other locks work using the FOB or the inside lock switch. My PIA is trying to get the door open without damaging the door panel. Any insight or assistance with a solution to getting the panel door off from the inside of a door that is locked shut would be greatly appreciated. thanks,

    Guy

  • @1aauto thanks a lot, I'll give it a try.

  • @mistermexxico You may want to use a test light to see if there's power going to the actuator inside the door. If there is then the door lock actuator is more than likely bad. If there's no power to the actuator, check the fuse and then the door lock switch.

    If there's power coming from the switch, check the door harness that goes between the driverside door and the body of the truck. Many times a wire can become frayed or even break causing things like power windows and locks not to work.

  • Hi guys, i see some are asking questions, so I'll shoot one too.

    I have a Ford F-150, half cab.. however, one of the rear doors won't open, only the rear driver door works. is there a way to fix the other one? Something may be wrong inside the door and I don't know what it might be, if someone could direct me to a forum or a video that would be great. Thanks.

  • Hi: Interesting video tutorial. alone a technical question: The light of white mica with red that is ignited on having opened the door to replace the bulb. It is nesesario to remove the lid of the door or it does to itself dede the mica thank you for his response.
