I know it's a normal thing with Ford's to have your power locks go out after time. For anyone who has replaced them, where did you get the motors from? I've looked at a few sites online and have found nothing. Is it a dealer only item? Thanks in advance.

 

They are called actuators. You can try varsityford.com. I looked they were about $44.00 each. Uou can also try Tasca Ford

 

Thank you sir

 

I haven't replaced factory actuators, but I have installed countless aftermarket actuators and they turn out great, you could just add your own if u cant get 'em but I doubt it

 

Go to allelectronics.com... They've got actuators available for $5.50/ea. Ordered 2 of them just last night to replace mine and you can read reviews there of others that have used them for their Ford products.

 

there is a forum on here that describes in detail how to fix it on the cheap. i did it back in oct. and they still work like they're brand new. i will see if i can find it again it will post a link to it.

here is that link to the step by step. the way i see it is you was plannin on replacing the actuators anyway so why not try this first? like i said i did it bout 7months ago and mine still pop ev time i hit the button either in the truck or on the key fob. only thing i did differently was i went ahead and short circuited the spot where the thermister goes because the only way you will burn up your motor is if you sit there holdin down the button constantly. so don't hold down the button and don't let your kids(if you have them) sit there and play with them and you will be fine. better than 45 bux a piece!!

 

oh yeah i forgot it is the tenth post down it is titled Budget door lock actuator repair.

 

thanks....I have had Mine for a year and they wont lock with button or fob, only when put in gear. but they wont unlock at all with fob, switch or keyless entry pad. Ill try this next
