Rear Left Door Lock Actuator for Kia Forte

Standard Ignition DLA1608 is a rear left door lock actuator for select Kia Forte models from 2010-2014. It is built with a plastic and metal finish, a black, gray, and white housing, and a single oval female connector for direct electrical connection.

Key Features

  • Fits 2010-2013 Kia Forte, rear left
  • Fits 2014 Kia Forte, rear left, to 11/27/13
  • Standard Ignition DLA1608 replacement part
  • With latch for door lock operation

Detailed Description

This Standard Ignition door lock actuator is intended for the rear left door on Kia Forte applications listed above. The DLA1608 uses a 1-connector, 4-terminal blade design with a female connector interface, helping match the factory electrical layout for the rear door lock system. This part cross-references DLA1698 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Rear door lock that does not respond to the power lock switch
  • Intermittent locking or unlocking at the rear left door
  • Door lock movement that feels weak, slow, or inconsistent
  • Latch-related lock operation problems on the rear left door
  • Electrical connection issues at the actuator interface

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and latch style before installation. This DLA1608 uses a female oval connector with 4 male blade terminals and no included hardware. Confirm the vehicle build date for 2014 Kia Forte applications, since coverage is listed through 11/27/13. Match the rear left position exactly for proper fitment on Kia Forte models.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies replacement electrical and body components for service applications, and this actuator is built to match the listed fitment and connector configuration for the Kia Forte rear left door.
