Just wanted to take a moment and say props to you both for this video! I changed both driver side and passenger side motors successfully, thanks to your video. A couple more tips: give yourself 2 hours if you've never removed and replaced your door panel, also make sure you remove the negative terminal on your battery if you're going to take a longer amount of time. Thanks again for this great video!

Thank you! Just a note, the cars with soft close doors have different case halves. The soft close motors are contained in the same space as the lock actuators, and because of this lexus ran serious through bolts and screws through the cases. So the cases don't separate on soft close door models, the motors just burn out.

Nice Job! Thank you for this Informative & Nicely done Video. Cheers from Toronto, Canada!

[@TheMagiccarpetrides]

[@shawndu8737]

Awesome info bro 🙏

[@somersetbassett4580]

Just picked one of these up and missed a door lock on the inspection! could have at least used it as a bargaining chip. This seems like a lot, you're obviously a pro at this but I'll give it a shot. Thanks for vid!

This was super useful. I have a question, my rear locks ‘squeak’ when I lock my car, looking at your video I’m not sure what component it is that’s making that noise, any ideas?

[@alwayspissedoff1]

I have a 2002 LS 430 and the rear latches (same door) look completely different from this? These appear far more complicated than mine do. Replaced all motors and didn't have any issues. Thanks for the video!

[@buddyboy66]

Nice work! Very helpful! One question: the window rail doesn’t seem to fit as it should after the lock mechanism is bolted in. Any suggestions?

[@davidwell686]

Very clever.

[@Matt-wv3if]

This was a nice explanation and well done. However there is no way in hell I’m doing this to 3 of my doors lol. I’ll just have to manually lock them

[@OwnersAgony]

Dude, once you done one and kind of “get” how it works - it’s super easy. And it’s a luxury car you need power locks lol

[@hasanalzaabi]

All doors hve the same motor? If u could post motor link would be great. Thnx for the video.

[@carlossa3178]

Já está me ajudando este vídeo. Brasil

[@abmjamil7063]

Can you please give a link for the little motor you bought? Thanks

[@tbgtbg6311]

This is for the servo motor, but mine won't even stay shut. You can hear the electric door locks engaging moving etc.

[@johnpaulson996]

What kind of speakers are in the door?

[@muhammadsalmanumar3046]

My electrician did this and now my remote wont unlock lock the car but can do it manually from the inside switches. Plus i cant also open the car through key hole manually. Any idea

[@OwnersAgony]

There are 2 or 3 spots on one of the cable connections to the pivoting arm from the little electric motor. It may be that he hooked the cable to the wrong spot on one of the motors and it’s all screwy because of that now.

[@xbotbananaboi7064]

wait is this cause your door won’t stay closed or because your door lock one switch ? because my door won’t close at all

[@marcusinthoulay5468]

Can you post the link to the replacement motor?
