what a mess???? but you did great such a challenging job, well done!!!
Hi there, great video on how to replace the door actuator by just changing the motor. Are you located in Va, My 2004 Lexus is having the same issues? Please email me @vincehuynh84@gmail.com so we can go over it more. Hope to her from you soon.
what if the motor sparking when move? is it dangerous that need to change?
Also thank you so much for posting a great video!!
How long did it take you from start to finish?
Sort of a nightmare of a job, but doable. I applaud you working on this junk, I know it's not fun all the time (most of the time)… What did you end up charging this guy (if you don't mind me asking? How many total hours? Or was it just some sort of flat rate? I'm sure he got a much better deal than taking it to Lexus… After all, Lexus charges a shit ton cause the doughnuts, cookies and coffee got to be paid some how… A good honest mechanic like you is hard to come by, I'm sure you stay plenty busy.
I had to do this for the rear door locks on my RX300. It was a lot harder to crack open the case with the motor and I needed a tiny RC gear puller to remove the spiral gear on the motor, other than that it went pretty much like your video.
WOW THAT'S HOW YOU SOUND PROOF A DOOR BMW. WATCH AND LEARN
This is totally one of those things that I could take apart and complete and then fuck up and put something back together wrong and it would never work properly ever again. It looks complicated in that way.
That was really cool. I don’t have to fix anything yet but I like to know how things come apart. it did scare me however when you got the final assembly out of the door. How we’re out ever going to get everything back together in the same position, they were complex echanisms. I’m impressed very cool. I am astounded that the prices quoted to repair these things it’s ridiculous. The Internet will teach us all how to be much smarter.
Thanks for the video it made the job very easy. the manual calls for several other parts to be removed that you didn't take off. your the man
You Are Super Spectacular!!!! You must be the Batman of the Auto Mechanics industry. Next time you make a video you should probably wear a utility belt and cape!!
I wish i could get a guy like you to fix my lexus ls 430 with the exact same problems.
I have a 2003 ES300 and at some point all of my locks stopped working (not at the same time but usually while it was cold) and I didn’t have the money to fix it so I locked the doors manually and eventually all of them started working again
Piece of crap? That's one of the greatest cars ever made!
Cracking that shell open at the end to install the little motor is something you don't see on other videos of people repairing lexus cars that are not ls. I wonder if the ls is the only one you can do this to.I have 2002 ls 430 and i am still scared as hell…..
YOU ARE HIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are a genius.
I have to do that on my Lexus ls430 2001 the door locks wouldn't work.
All my doors lock except drivers. Lock doesnt move unless physically moved. Does that mean it is definitely the motor?
