2003 Honda Accord EXE 4door, all the doors will lock/unlock with the key fob or the door switches except the right front door. I have had the door actuator replaced on the front right side and still wont work. The front right door switch will operate the other door locks,
any ideas on this.

 

Do you have a volt meter and willing to do some tests of the pass side lock switch?

 

yes I do. I did do a few checks with a test light.
1) pulled the lower elec plug from actuator, while pushing on the door lock up or pushing down on the door lock down on the pass door switch I could only get power from one side ( dont know if that is normal).
2) did the same thing with the upper elec plug, but got no power from either side of the plug.
3) took old actuator hooked it up to battery and to the actuator with the 2 prongs, actuator moved in one direction, reversed wires and the actuator moved the other direction. so I know now the old actuator is good.

So what is my next step.

 

With a volt meter check the continuty on the pass switch as described. Let us know what you find.

 

Sorry it took so long to do the check,Here is my continuty findings.

There should be continuty between the #2 & #9 terminal when the door lock switch is in the LOCK position. Yes there was continuty.

There should not be continuty between the #2 & #9 terminal when the door lock switch is in the NEUTRAL position. NO there was no continuty.

There should be continuty between terminal #1 & #9 when the door lock switch is in the UNLOCK position. YES there was continuty.

There should be no continuty between terminals #1 & #9 when the door switch is in the NEUTRAL position. NO, there was no continuty.

So every thing checks out there, whats my next check.

Thanks,

Ok, so we know the actuator is good,,,it is not getting the signal.

Pass switch is good.

Next, the drivers switch or the wires going thru the door jam.

In "Lock" the test on the output to the pass actuator should be.....YEL/BLK is hot(+) and the YEL is ground (-).

 

Ok, so I did the test and yes in the lock position, YEL/BLK is hot and YEL is ground.

 

actuator working, but lock is old and binding up.. remove lock assembly, clean and re-lubriacate it all.. then reinstall and see if the problem still exist.

Please advise outcome

accord1224,
Thanks for the info, I will try and do that this weekend and post results.

 

Cleaned and lubed lock assembly, still will not work.

Does this mean the lock assembly has gone bad?

Recap; checked continuty on pass door switch, this checked out to be working.

checked power going to to acuator While pushing on the door lock switch in the LOCK position got power to YEL/BLK wire, UNLOCK position got power to YEL wire.

All doors UNLOCK/LOCK with pass front door switch except pass front door.
