Part does not work immediately after installation, needs adjustment

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

Long term repair - cyclic test in a real car door confirms the effectiveness of use over many years

Cons

Retrofittable
