CORSA C DOOR LOCK MECHANISM ACTUATOR REMOVAL

Corsa c drivers side central door locking issue with defective mechanism/actuator. The door would lock itself. If yours is playing up in a similar way it could be worth changing the part. I couldnt find any instructions on UA-cam for this so i have made a How to to hopefully help others . Quite simple once you know what to do. The door card removal is not shown but there are plenty of videos on how to do that.

Thank you Mike, my Corsa C has developed the exact same problem, it is brilliant to see the problem and the fix so well described!

thank you very helpful. i am doing my vauxhall combo as i write. I will try to put some photos up to help others. the metal plate was the problem, but thank to you should be ok. My problem I could only get in the van by the rear doors then unwind the window, the inside locks would still not work untill i switch the ignition on. But it will lock but not unlock

Thanks for the helpful video. Used it to change the central lock regulator on a 2004 Corsa today. I had to remove the electric window rail in order to the get regulator out. Doesn't show that in your video so guessing you didn't have to. Other than that slight headache, everything else was changed smoothly as per your video!!

Hi, does it need coding after the replacement? Does the remote central locking works? Great job! Very helpful!

My son's got a 2004 Corsa C and his driver's door always locks on him when he tries to get in or out of the car, fobs don't work so he uses key, not a problem unless you leaves keys in car then you're in the doo doo.
Annoying more than anything, may well try tinkering with it.
Thanks for the vid.

Did you find out the problem ?

Fantastic video

[@challenging]

Supposedly it's the spring in the actuator that wears/stretches which can be replaced for pennies. From what I've read you can't get a corsa one but a volvo one us the same . Will be attempting this soon and will update. Not sure fitting a second hand one is that good as they all go after a while ?

Hi there, did you changed this spring in the actuator? I've got 3 door corsa c 2006 with the same problem.
I read in some Vauxhall forum, the mechanism doesn't seem to be able to be opened, is that true? Thanks

[@aymanm.8462]

hey, i've got a corsa as well but my door doesn't open from the inside either so i'm unable to get the plate off because you have a screw all the way down and you can't get there without opening the door. do you have a way to get to it? or should i just forcefully pull the plate off?

[@davorinhorvat5153]

I have the same problem on my corsa, I must fix it.

[@kamlon10]

How did you take out the metallic plate (silver) in between the door, I can not take out the autator because of that.

[@mikeanderson8601]

hi andres ,i'm not sure which plate you mean, can you see it in the video?

[@kamlon10]
