door lock actuators questions

[romois9]

Do these go out alot? Both of my passenger actuators are bad. Once I replace them is there a preventative maintenance to preventthem from going out?

I dont know what year LS you have, but I am going to assume GEN I. I had 3out of 4 go bad on my 2002 by 120Kish miles. They all went in a 6 month period.

Medium difficulty for the first one. Not so bad for the rest.

Door Acuators

Replaced my drivers door twice. Small hands required. Wire rope stretches between inside handle & outside mechanism. After market replacements wire rope a little to long in my experience. Stealers works perfect. Good luck!
