I have two door lock issues, and I'm sure most of you have had at least one of these dreaded issues, but I haven't had much luck with a search because it isn't the front driver's door as most old posts that I searched through refer to.
1.) Rear driver's side door - manually locking and unlocking the door by hand works fine. With door manually unlocked, door will open from inside and out. Door will never automatically unlock using interior unlock button. Door will occasionally unlock after multiple (10+) presses of key fob unlock button. I'm thinking actuator, but is there something else I should be looking at? I only think it may be something else because it will only occasionally unlock using the Fob only.
2.) Liftgate - glass and door operate fine. Will lock and unlock flawlessly with the key. Takes multiple presses of unlock or lock buttons (on the Fob or interior buttons, they work about the same) to achieve desired function. Again, I'm thinking actuator.
I just don't want to spend the money on actuators (and the hassle) without your appreciated second opinions.
