🔒 Enhanced Security: APDTY 857479 Non-Integrated Door Lock Actuator for Advanced Protection Review

The front and rear passenger side power door locks on my 2005 Acura MDX stopped working. After reading the forums about the problem, I bought it to solve my problem. Installation was a bit difficult due to the design of the door, but overall not bad. It took about an hour for both doors. These drives worked fine and solved my problem!

Looks strong enough to last. The original lasted 19 years so I wouldn't expect less than 15 years. It would have been five stars but the fact that there are no water seals bothered me. Luckily the old seals were still in good condition so I reused them which I didn't have to. Glad the door is usable. again. I recommend yes

Fits perfectly and works great. Actually ordered and received another actuator from another seller who also sells on Revain by the way but beware although priced about half the price of this one costs nothing but trouble. This is an exact replacement with all correct connections, unlike the other which was missing pins in one of the connectors. It took three men and a boy to explain the problem with his actuator to this salesman and he's probably still scratching his head.

The installation process was quite easy but due to the limited space in the door the actual installation was quite difficult. It worked great for the first 10 months or so. but then it started to stick open. It doesn't allow you to lock the door at all, even manually. However, sometimes it starts working randomly and works great for a few days and then gets stuck in the open position again. I am not sure if this is a specific defect of my device or if this part is not designed to last a long…

The door drive holes lined up well with the door bracket and the mechanism worked fine once installed. I'm giving it 3 stars because I had to remove the old "lever" (on the old actuator) and replace the lever that came with the new actuator. If you put them side by side for comparison, you will see that the levers bear very little resemblance to each other and the position on the new lever is completely wrong. However, the lever is easy to remove and replacing it with an old lever is quite…
