Default Door lock actuator gremlins...

Hey guys,

So last week my actuator stopped working, I figured it just needed to be replaced...

Last night it randomly started working again? Think it is still bad but just intermittently starts working?

For $40 from the stealership I will probably just replace it anyway, but I am curious.

Gracias.

Face it, your car hates you.

Could have a broken wire or something, who knows. Once you swap it out with the new one, conduct a failure analysis and post the results here.

That's exactly how mine acted before completely failing. Just replace it.

Fuses don't go in and out, they work or fail.
