Door Locks intermittent
Sup guys, been having this issue where the door locks dont work when activated (door button, lock switch, or remote). First it was the passenger side rear, wouldnt do anything, then one day, it started back working fine. Then it was the driver's side front, i had to use the key to unlock the door, then one day, it starts working like nothing happened, now its both passenger side doors and sometimes the front will work but ultimately it wont move. All doors can be manually unlocked and opened, no problem. Any help, actuators, circuits, data...

It sounds like the door actuators. I had my drivers door do the same thing. Found the part online and found directions to remove the door panel and the door handle and was able to swap it out. Not an easy task but with patience it is very doable if your handy.

Before you replace them I would suggest you access them first then try to manually operate them.
Now, I know they're different actuators, but I've replaced or had my passenger side tilt mirror actuator replaced 2x under warranty and 1x out of pocket. After it stopped working the 4th time I moved the mirror back and forth by hand and it works perfectly again. I took the mirror apart anyway and put the old part on and it works too.
I also had this problem with my fuel filler door being stuck closed, once again working it back and forth seemed to fix the problem. Both times this occurred was when I had my car in very cold weather where the temps were constantly below zero or in the single digits.

Removal is tedious though.
Where did u find the actuators?
