Review on πŸ”’ Dorman 746-162 Door Lock Actuator Motor: Ideal Replacement for Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury Models by Marco Gavi

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The part does not work out of the box, rigging is required

The part is not bolted. It's held in place by friction and a locking tab. The fit of this piece is not tight. After 10 closing cycles, switch off the drive by removing the locking bar. I pushed a piece of plastic behind the locking tab to prevent the actuator from fully retracting and remaining engaged with the locking shaft. The actuator rotates slightly during use, so the stopper rod does not move at the same speed as the work part.

Pros
  • GOLS certification
Cons
  • Modern
