Review on πŸšͺ Dorman 931-430 Rear Door Lock Actuator Motor for Toyota Models - Rear Driver Side by Luckie Davidson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Details, details, details.

Simply because Revain's description doesn't say: US made Toyota Camry 2002-2006 and Toyota Corolla 2005-2008. I think a few Lexus products and small Toyota SUVs could also be used. It replaces Toyota part number 69060AA040.*** Updated 5/10/2014: ***This device can be used to solve a fairly common problem where certain Toyota electric door locks are not responding to lock or unlock commands or this sometimes do . (Which is even more frustrating.) It fits perfectly in my daughter's 2003 Camry and works great! This is the easiest way to solve the power lock not working issue. Just a tip: to open this bottom cover so you can connect it to the cable, you need to insert a narrow, flat piece of metal into each of the three slots on the BACK of the device to release the plastic door latches by gently pulling them open the door while releasing each latch. Even the small screwdrivers I tried were too thick, you could use a big bolt. (I used a flat blade desoldering tool.) One more comment; Many people say that you can fix these devices by swapping out the motor inside. I tried that once, and while it's possible, it's not worth the trouble. Disassembly and assembly of these blocks is quite difficult, and the plastic case can easily break when opened, especially if it is old. With this new replacement part, I was able to repair my daughter's back door in about an hour, including removing and replacing the door panel. True Disclosure: Last year I fixed her front door lock which was much harder to access. and gave me some practice. Attempted to replace the motor on this unit. Although the new engine worked well, I broke so many fuselage parts during disassembly that I replaced the block anyway. So I recommend doing this repair once rather than twice.

Pros
  • Safety Compliance - Part has been simulated crash tested in accordance with government guidelines
Cons
  • Service Speed
