The vehicle is a 2008 Smart Fortwo 451 Passion 84 BHP. In this video, I remove the N/S exterior door panel (passenger side on RHD car) to investigate a problem with the central locking. The door does not always lock with the other doors and this appears to be temperature related, being more of a problem in hot weather. I remove the door handle, disconnect the cables, remove the outer weather seal rubber and the door mirror assembly, then finally the door outer panel. I lubricate the lock and inspect visually for any corrosion or faults but none found. If this reoccurs then I would consider this an issue with the electrical side of the door lock and would replace the complete lock assembly. The door panel and removed items were reassembled.
