Hi!

I just started having issues with my 2011 CR-V door locks. Of course, just out of warranty

After hours of googling, I started thinking it was the actuator. But now I'm not so sure.

My rear passenger door will not unlock/lock with the key fob. However, I can manually unlock it with no problems. Whatever I set it to manually, it will stay at. Not a HUGE issue. The part that confuses me is the tailgate door. I am unable to open the tailgate door. But, when I manually unlock the rear passenger door, I'm able to open the tailgate. It makes no sense!

Any help would be appreciated!

Hello,
Sounds to me like the door locking interface may be faulty, or you may have a broken wire in the door to pillar wiring loom. Personally I suggest you play your face with Honda and state you would not have expected a 3 year old motor to start causing troubles like this and see what they say.

Rgs,

Honda has service info. regarding the tailgate not working, in that the car's multiplex integrated control unit (MICU) needs to see that all the doors are unlocked before the tailgate outer handle switch can work the release actuator.

So, if the rear passenger door is still locked, the tailgate is not suppose to be able to be open. It probably is due to a bad actuator at the rear passenger door causing the tailgate issue too.

Thank you BOTH for your responses! I'll attempt to replace the rear passenger actuator then.
