A door lock actuator is the electric motor unit that drives the lock linkage inside the door. Signs it may need replacing include a door that won't lock or unlock electrically, slow or intermittent lock operation, or buzzing and clicking from inside the door panel. Switches, wiring and fuses can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the circuit first. If the actuator is at fault, this Dorman lock actuator replaces it.
