Default How to replace power door lock actuator? 96 accord

I did a search but no luck.
My 96 accord started making a very loud buzzing noise when I lock the driver side door. Only to lock, unlock works fine. I think the solenoid is bad, or does someone here know of a trick to fix this?

Thanks!

It's the rubber inside of the actuator. You're not going to find a replacement part (rubber) at the dealer or any auto store, honda only sells the actuator assembly.
You need to remove you actuator, open it up, and either fix the rubber in a way that it's nice and steady there, or you try your luck going to a junk yard to search for one car that maybe had a "good" actuator.
I'll be going to perform this job on my car this week once again, there's a fellow member who has done a DIY for this, you just need to find it.
