Can verify. No car repair experience and followed these directions to complete the job in about 2 hours including time I rewatched a few parts. The metal rod was a bit tricky as you had to pull a metal slide down in order for the door rod to slide into place and they didn’t really explain it well. I played around with the new part to see how it worked and saw how it slid down some and that helped me get the metal rod out and back in later.
Was quoted 560 parts and 1 hr labor totaling about 750 out the door. Bought this part on Amazon for about $50 total plus a little time.
Thanks for the video and making this seem less intimidating.
This is exactly the type of content I was looking for! Thank the lord the car community has such good looking gentlemen watching its back!
You guys! This is one of the most well-explained tutorials I’ve ever seen. I just got a quote from Toyota to fix this for $600. I was like, “Nah, I’ll find a good UA-cam video to do this myself.” I’m about to order the part because I’m confident I can do this after watching this video. Thank you guys so much!!

How did it go? Did you fix it?
@@yaalove3736 I did! This video is step by step and easy to follow.
Just replaced the actuator on my 2017 Rav4 thanks to you guys. Saved my $800. Thanks for the quality video!
You guys helped me so much thank you !!!!!
I am impressed and thankful. Excellent level of explanation and supporting camera angles throughout. Major bonus points for when it didn't go exactly as planned and you showed your workaround. Also once you had it hooked up, testing it prior to mounting. The only disappointment is I can't click like more than once. 👍👍
I believe that what you referred to as a support is actually the guide for the window.
Great video out of all of the others in my search. Changed out my driver and pax door locks on my 2013 RAV4. I estimate I saved about $800. Thanks again!
thank YOU
Good video. One last step that is missing is connecting the manual key rod to the actuator. You will not be able to unlock your car with the key if this is not done.
Cheers guys, just fixed LHS with tips from your video....easy to do and big savings for DIY. 😊😊😊
Great video...I have a 2017 Tundra but aside from a couple of panel differences, the actual removal of the actuator is exactly the same...your explanation was much better than 90% of the other vids on youtube...and there is a cool drinking game in your vid. Every time he says "bad boy"...take a shot...you'll be so drunk by the end you won't care if the actuator works or not!! lol Thanks again!!
Yo, you guys are incredibly detailed. Very well explained. Thanks for making this!
This video was super helpful for my 2000 Chevy Metro Geo
This helped a ton. Took 30 minutes thank to you.
Well done 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much!!! This was easy to follow and now my door is fixed :)
Great Video and Fun as well....no way paying $699.00 Thank you so much !!!!
Great Job Documenting the process Gents 👏
Thank you guys for this video. It's great!!
Nice! Thank you! Well explained and video
Thanks good video
10/10 video
Super helpful video guys. Definitely, appreciate it. I will be using it as a step by step when I work on my Rav4. Again Thanks.
The reason why you had trouble disconnecting the wires from the window button section is the place you were pushing wasn’t the release. If you look on the side of the connector you’ll see a tab with two indented lines that you need to push
Wifes 2018 rav 4 passenger doesnt lock with the fob key.....im thimking this is whats broken and setting the alarm if ya open the door..horn n lights go off
Update...yota dealership replace the actuator under warranty 😊
Hey y'all, this looks like a great easy-to-follow tutorial. You said at the end that it cost you about $57. All of the Rav4 door actuators I have looked at are about $300. Do you have any recommendations on where to find a well-priced Rav 4 door actuator?
Go to carparts.com or rockauto! They will be aftermarket and not OEM
@@vnmechanicsandhomeimprovem3988 Just want to follow up, I followed this video and my door is fixed! This is a great video and I appreciate your help!
what about rav4 hybrid 2021? same way to open door panel?
It should be almost the same. However, there may be a few extra trim pieces on there
replaced actuator but now i cant unlock the car with key
There might be a few things you can do.
1. Try making sure the connection to the actuator is solid
2. Make sure the metal wires (rods) are connected to the actuator correctly
3. If none of the doors are unlocking, then the remote may be out of battery
4. The unit itself may be a defect. Try getting a repacement.
Let us know if that works.
Uuuh what size hex
It's a Torx 30 bit for the 3 hex screws that hold the actuator in the door.
Our 2017 Rav4 driver's door will no longer work with the key fob (likely will have to do this repair in the video) and I had just had to replace the blower motor recently. New Toyota's are junk.
