- Ideal replacement: built to replicate the original actuator motor's fit and function, and intended to restore trunk latch functions.
- Simple installation: factory-style connectors plug directly into the original wiring harness.
- Cost-effective solution: provides original-equipment function at a competitive price.
- Quality tested: put through extensive testing for a quality fit and long service life.
Signs the trunk lock actuator may need replacing include a trunk that won't release or lock electrically, locking that works only some of the time, or a buzzing or clicking from the latch area with no latch movement. A blown fuse, a wiring fault or a bad switch can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before you replace the actuator.
