rajtp Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Guys I have a 98 Accord and my anti-theft and alarm system works fine and locks the car. However, when I lock the car when going back home, the driver door lock doesn't go back in while the others do. I'm referring to the manual knob on the inside of the car which looks like a fat pin and is on the door itself. As a result, I have to manually put the knob down first, close the door and then use my keyfob to lock all the other doors and turn on the alarm Is there a quick fix for this? Thanks in advance!

James Matteu Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Dead actuator? Swap the actuator with another from another door and see if the problem repeats. If not, change the driver's door lock actuator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajtp Posted March 6, 2008 Author Share Posted March 6, 2008 I'm pretty weak at fixing cars as I haven't done any of this before. How much do you think a mechanic would charge for labor? Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannaBstuntin Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 How much do you think a mechanic would charge for labor? An hour labor. Which could vary greatly depending where you go. But I'd estimate prob $50-$100. BTW, does the lock go in when you hold the inner door handle and hit the lock switch? If that still works then I wouldn't even bother fixing.
