Handle one-touch locking and unlocking on your driver's door with the Standard Ignition Power Door Lock Actuator DLA-246, a direct-fit replacement for the front left (driver's side) door on the 1996-1998 Ford Taurus, 2003 Mercury Marauder, 1980-1982 Mercury Marquis, and 1996-1998 Mercury Sable. This electric actuator drives the door latch to lock and unlock when you use the lock switch or key fob; if a failed original actuator is why your front-left door no longer locks or unlocks with the switch, this replaces it.
