where to buy door actuator?

[adam123]

Rear right (being driver) door isn't locking or unlocking with the rest of the doors so I'm pretty confident it's the door actuator.
Any ideas the best place to pick one up? I've looked on ebay and there are a couple from China for £7 which seems a bit too cheap

How can you be sure the actuator is at fault?

Have you checked if the speakers and electric windows are working ok for that door?

Having read through a good few threads regarding the same issue of just the one door not locking/unlocking the actuator seemed to always be at fault. Am I missing potentially another easier fix?

Sorry ye both windows and speakers fine in that door

You need to remove door card and check wiring for current. Also it could be a broken wire at the door hinge level, between body and door

No problem, no point buying an actuator if the old one is working fine
