Mixma rear door locks don't work when temps below freezing.
 
Hi,

I need a fix for my rear power door locks that won't work when the outside temps drop below freezing. The two front door locks work fine. The rear locks seem to want to open but just don't complete the action. The only way to open the rear doors is from inside.

Is there a fix anyone can recommend?

I had a similar problem except I couldn't unlock any doors but the drivers door. I got a new master switch and it fixed it up. Haven't had anymore probs since.

Remove the rear door panels, lubricate the lock and make sure the rods move freely. Easy fix....

I am starting to get a problem with my drivers door lock not working freely.

Will some graphite sprayed into the lock help free it up?

I had the same problem. All my doors would not unlock. Also, my car did not start in the cold. I changed my battery, and now my doors open at even colder temps.

i've kindof been having the same problem except that only my rear drivers side door won't unlock. all of the others work fine. is the motor dead?

Lol at chillin014 but anyways I have a similar problem but its below freezing when I try to unlock the doors they lock again by them selves and then if they are already unlocked when I try to lock them they unlock, are you kinda having a problem like that?
