Passenger Side Automatic Door Lock Not Working

The solenoid is bad.

Passenger side automatic door lock not working.

The only way to lock unlock it is manually push the lock from the inside or use the key from the outside. If all of the door locks are inoperative start your diagnosis at the fuse box. If it s not sending a signal the fob will likely have to be replaced. Again if one door doesn t work but others do the problem could be with the door lock solenoid.

Just make sure the key is on. Chances are your solenoid is burned up or maybe a loose connection. In most cases vaupell says it s the driver s side door actuator that breaks down because it s used the most. An inoperative power door lock can be caused by the switch solenoid wiring problem or mechanical problem within the linkage of the affected door.

Inspect the fuse that protects the door lock circuit to ensure it is not blown. All three other door locks respond normally. Shearer adds that in cases where all of the locks fail to work it s likely a sign of a defective switch which triggers all of the actuators or a blown fuse. A fuse is blown.

This is a cheap and easy fix. If the lock tries to move then the problem could be a frozen lock mechanism or a faulty solenoid. Replacing the fuse will correct the problem. If i insert the key into the passenger side door the lock doesnt open close.

Replacing it may require removing the car door panel. Have the same problem with my driver side lock i believe i need a new actuator. If one door doesn t work but others do the problem could be a blown fuse. I have an 08 altima 2 5s and two days ago my driver s side door lock stopped working in response to the remote the keyless entry button on the door handle and the lock button on the inside.
