- Step by step instructions on removing and replacing the door lock actuator on a 2015 Lexus GX 460. The replacement actuator was bought on Ebay from actuators plus who I highly recommend. This is the second actuator I bought from them - great service both time, plus Lenny (the owner) is an actuator guru and was able to correctly troubleshoot my problem via email. I paid around $50 for the actuator.

Great video!
Thanks for this video! It was extremely detailed and I was able to follow the directions to replace the driver side door actuator for my 2016 Lexus GX 460. The shop was going to charge almost $600 (the dealer would have been significantly more)and I was able to use an aftermarket part that saved me hundreds! Took about 30-40 minutes and that’s being very careful with the clips. Much appreciated!
worked perfectly...thank you!
Super helpful video, completed in 90 minutes or so with plenty of rewinds to complete steps.
My bank account is appreciative and I thank you!!
Nicely done, Rick. thanks for taking the time to make the video.
Thank you for this fantastic tutorial. This helped me a lot, and i was able to replace the actuator on my 2015 gx460 with ease.
One note: after removing the door panel, if there are any plastic grabbing tabs in the door that didnt pull away with the door panel, transfer them to the door panel before reinstallation. Otherise they won't reinstall correctly. And will push the panel away from the door.
Thank you so much sir, I followed your video to replace mine, ordered it on Amazon for 35$. Between you and GX Bob the job was fairly easy👌👍
Thank you for this. This just saved me countless hours of trying to figure it out myself or hundreds of dollars at the dealership
Great video. The camera work and attention to detail were excellent! Thank you!
Wow...just came back to this video becasue the other door actuator needs to be replace.... Thanks R CH...That is now $1500 you saved me
I'm so glad the video was helpful. I'm on my second GX and would guess I've replaced at least 8 actuators.
@@RickH713 what do you think causes this? What a chronic issue.
@@andyb4071 no idea, other than cheap parts. Apparently the part that fails is a $2 plastic part inside the actuator. If you're up to it, you can rebuild the actuator and replace just that part. I just buy a rebuilt actuator for around $50 to save the time/effort of rebuilding it myself. I don't think the problem is limited to GXs. I have replaced actuators on family members' LS, RX and ES; however, the GX parts seem to fail much sooner (50K miles) than any of the others (typically 100k+ miles).
Thank you very much for the video, I have a 2014 LX570 and I could not find a video specifically for the LX lock actuator, it turned out to be exactly the same process as the GX aside from removing the door panel which is very similar too. I was able to get it completed in about 2 hours taking my time, thanks again
So it’s fairly doable with an LX570? Dealership quoted me $750
This is the second one I replaced, I did the drivers door first and today I had to replace the passenger front door. This video has been invaluable thank you. What’s up with Toyota using crappy door actuators??
A huge thanks for taking the time to record this. Followed the steps exactly. $100 in parts maybe, 2 hours of labor, and 2 doors swapped out. Saved me at least $600. Thank you!!!!
Glad to know the video helped you.
Thank you so much, you are a huge blessing, very detailed, I followed you along and was able to change my door lock in no time, blessings.
Thank you, Very much. This is a great video. Very helpful.
Great video! I just did both fronts today and only took a couple hours. One thing I noticed on mine (2012) was for the drivers side, the set screw that holds in the lock has a catch to keep it from falling out (learned that on a different video) So when I backed it out completely both the lock and cover came out in one piece. Not sure that will work for everyone but was handy.
I have seen the video many times because in my Lexus I do have the same issue. Thanks again.
both my front doors went bad- sounds like this happens every few years with these actuators. I guess water gets in there bad when it rains and if you use the automatic car washes alot?
Saved me $1400 (front driver and passenger went out within 2 weeks of each other. Lexus dealer quoted $700 plus for each side) thanks so much because I would have struggled with much of this without your instruction!
Great Video!!!!! Took less than a hour following your excellent step by step instructions.
Your video was a huge help! Thank you sir!
Apparently, the lock commonly breaks on our cars. Great video. Thank you.
Great Video....thank you for sharing...I was quoted ~$800 from the dealership. Bought a refurbished part on eBay for $60 with a lifetime warranty. Took less than 30 minutes with your instructions. THANK YOU!!!!
Excellent description, thanks
Thank you for this video, you helped me save 600 dollars in parts and labor. I really appreciate your help !
Glad it was helpful. I'm on my 2nd GX and, between both cars and multiple doors, have probably done this replacement 8-10 times.
Thanks for the video, followed your instructions, worked great. Back door is easier because you don't have to fuss with the lock.
Thank you for the helpful video. I was able to do the job in about 20 minutes thanks to you.
Thank you
Fantastic video! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the tip about taking off that window trim when replacing the door panel. That was driving me crazy trying to figure that out
Great Video....thank you for sharing...I was quoted $750 from dealership, just bought part on ebay rebuilt for $38 and an hour of time with your instructions and all works great :)
Excellent vid. helped me out.
The Lexus dealers here in GA want $1200 to replace one door actuator. Something a pro can do in 30 minutes.
Great step by step guide, very detailed!
When you used the touch-unlock feature on that door, did it cause the whole power lock system to attempt to unlock multiple times accompanied by a repeated door-unlock beep from the car?
No, I have not experienced that. The only time I got multiple beeps (not accompanied by the system actually trying to lock/unlock) was when I did not connect the door actuator to the electric plug. Once I took the door panel back off and re-connected everything it worked fine.
Great video!
