Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Rear door will not lock or unlock from the switch
• Locking mechanism makes noise but does not fully engage

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the rear left or rear right position before ordering, since fitment varies by side and model year. Confirm the connector style, terminal count, and 12-volt electrical specification against the original part before installation. This actuator uses a snap-in mounting method and a single male connector with male bullet terminals, so matching the factory configuration is important for proper fit and operation.
