А у меня механическая поломка.Еле еле открыл . Если нет возможности открыть за тросс . Как его открыть.Проблема. Сам замок не разбирается ка на 2 фокусе допустим.Нужно срезать металлические клепки но повторно их не заклепать.Так что сделать можно но лучше купить новый.

Hi, the translator is not very good but I think I understand you, You can not open it any other way except by using the cable, you can press the solenoid as I did in the video or possibly lift the little lever at the other end of the cable where the cable attaches. If you have a fault that’s inside the lock mechanism and the door won’t open I can’t really advise you. Maybe use a drill to destroy the lock until you can pull it to pieces. I did that once on a Volkswagen door that had a failed lock. If you have removed the lock and a replacement is expensive or not obtainable then I would drill the rivets out and see if it’s repairable. And possibly reassemble it with screws instead. But here in England they are cheap to get. There were lots on EBay from China. Hope this is useful.

Great video, very detailed. Could you please let me know which size of screwdriver you used. I am struggling in opening those two screws, thanks

[@thpxs0554]

Hi, I can’t remember for sure but I think it’s either torx T25 or T27. You can buy them as a screwdriver or as swappable bits in in a set. They’re dead cheap. Or you can often use a straight screwdriver and it’ll get them out. Thanks for the comment .

Hello thanks for the video, but in my case, the sensor of door open still on, do yo Know what should I do Thanks again.

[@thpxs0554]

Hi, I’m sorry for this late reply, your comment didn’t get highlighted to me. I’m sorry I don’t know why the indicator light is still on, I believe it’s controlled by a body control module ecu. That will take a signal from the lock and then turn on or off the light. If you changed the lock for a new one and the door locks ok but the indicator is still on then I’d suspect the body control module may not be getting the signal or not processing the signal, Ford diagnostics can actuate the lock and watch the ecu signal to see if it acknowledged the lock or not, but if you fitted a 2nd hand unit that could also be faulty cos it’s a common problem

How do you unlock the boot lock when you lock it by screw driver at video 9:06 !?? My boot door lock mechanism is locked and now the boot is open all the time. how to solve this problem. thanks in advance!

[@thpxs0554]

Hi, luckily you’re door is open making it easy to do. Remove the plastic door trim then go to 3:15 and 5:22 in the video. At 3:15 you see me reach in and release the lock and at 5:22 I show you what I did more clearly with the lock off the car. You basically push the operating solenoid and it pulls the cable and unlocks the catch.

@@thpxs0554 Thanks man! Keep up the good work!🙌🏻

Hi. Thanks a lot. Did you said 36 pounds? How is that heavy? Could you confirm the number of the part?

[@thpxs0554]

Hi, it cost £36 it doesn’t weigh 36 pounds. That was from a breaker on eBay called Charles Trent. I can’t say what the part number was cos the advert has gone and it’s not in my records. If you get the panel off your door you may have a paper tag on your lock with a part number if not , take it out and check cos all these fords have trouble with the electric lock and you may find the part number matches another model and you can get one that way, part numbers are better than using model and year for reference,!
