Hi guys,
i have an issue with my power locks. (civic 2002 LX)
Recently i replaced the door lock actuator (driver side), everything was fine for a couple of month, but since last week when i try to lock remotely the doors the actuator is locking the door, but is still making noise like is trying to lock again and again and the dome light is flickering. If i lock with the key works perfect. Can someone help me with this?

Thank you!

Is the one you replaced the only actuator having this problem or is it all the doors?

yes the one i replaced...another thing that i noticed is that now i have to press 4-5 times to hear the horn not only 2 times.

OEM, or 3rd party part used ??

OEM, that's why my guessing is that is something electrical and is not the actuator.

Does it unlock as it should on 1st press of unlock ??

Is it fast or slow when locking / unlocking ??

When door closed can you lock/unlock the lock **** by hand ?? Tight or Loose ?

yes it unlocks at the first press

i can say it s normal. i have this issue only when lock and not all the times.

yes i can unlock it by hand and it s tight.

It should take a pretty light press to push down the lock **** (when drivers door closed) so make sure it is not too tight to operate. (binding)

I think i figured what was...so i pulled off the cover of the door and i cleaned up all the door contacts...now looks to work perfect.
thank you for your help
