...and another EP3 with a door lock problem.
Never thought it would happen to me, but yesterday my driver's side actuator stopped working.
I can manually unlock the door with the key. I can manually lock the door from the inside if I hold the inside door handle (classic honda accident prevention).
If I lock or unlock the driver's side door then all the other doors will respond to the key FOB.
It looks to be the actuator, luckily it doesn't look like they are expensive and I have removed the door panel enough that I am not really worreid about the labor intensive possibilities of the repair.
My only question is: Do you have to have anything reprogrammed after changing the actuator? Or do you just let 'er rip?
Thanks in advance!

and another EP3 with a door lock problem
I have a 97 Xk8 convertible. When you lock the door with the remote or with the key, the door locks and unlocks again. Cant get it to stay locked. Anyone have a cure?

Wow you are probably the only one that feels like that! Yes the suspension is different from past Honda's but we worked around those flaws...
