My front door lock replacement after an attempted theft was quoted at >$800. Thank you for giving me the tools to do this myself.
Thank you very much for the video. Repair cost estimate (parts & labor) was $425. My cost $65 plus 2 hours my labor.
Did you use this video to help you do it?
I did.
Man, I watched a few videos on doing this job, but I put you on play and followed you through every step. I have to compliment you on your instruction, your a pro ,thanks for posting this, I priced the part at the dealer it was $185 + labor, I purchased the part on line $85, thanks again you saved me money and time.
Welcome!
Thanks for demonstrating how to disassemble the door for access to replace the LF door latch assembly. This video was very helpful to me a 40 plus year auto technician. :) Thanks again for the tech help !
That makes me a 12 year tech, feel way better.
Great video thank you for explaining everything step by step; I followed your instructions and I was able to replace the actuator just as you described it.
great video with a great sense of humor! gonna try this out once the replacement part comes in, thanks for the video man!
Great video. Step by step. Took me a couple hours but no problems. Thank you.
Awesome video, clear action videos and your blunt humor had me chuckling..
I was able to replace my attenuator thanks to your help on the video
Genius! Love the accent! Just needed to replace the door handle.. But the video is extremely helpful for everything! Thanks a million bud!
All this applied for my 2016 Genesis sedan as well. Great video. Thanks for sharing!
This was a great step by step process. Thanks for posting this up! Hopefully the front door will become easier then the rear one because it was a PITA. The rear door isn't as large as the front one and had very little room to get your fingers in there. Too many clips and retainers kept popping off when trying to install the rear one.
Great video! Really helped me . Thank you for taking the time in making it.
Thanks for the video saved me a lot of money. Did it myself. Big time thank you
This help me realize one bolt behind that handle cover. Thanks man!
Thanks for the video. It was very helpful showing what was involved in replacing the lock actuator
VERY helpful! 10th or more video before seeing what I needed to replace that back piece the exterior door handle attached to. TY very much for the video!
You saved my life. Thanks for this video
Thank you for the upload it’ll help when I take apart my rear driver side door. Here’s hoping I ordered the right actuator.
Whew! I had a hell of a time getting the window back in properly! Thanks for the video. It was very helpfull.
Thanks for the video, I'm gonna get this done now. You're a good dude and I love the Blues Traveler in the background.
Ok bye.
Nice job!! This should help me replace my window regulator
Your video was great and helped me significantly. I had to replay a few times, but it all worked perfectly in the end. Thanks, Much!!
Awesome video man thanks for posting such a great quality vid!!👍
You really covered everything!
Quality video sir. 👍🏼
Thank you for this! I got it done.
No much talk to the point very clear thank you very good job 🌹
Great video thanks ! Helped a lot
I have to say, that was the best outtro ever hahaha. Thanks for the video you got your self a subscriber here.
thank you for your video ❤❤ you r the best
Great video, this helped me today
Grasias por el video, ya aregle mi carro... grasias a tu video muchas bendiciones. saludos desde Dallas Texas,
GREAT step by step!!! No annoying commentary, just right to the point. The way God intended! 🪨 auto has this part at different prices, depending on which door. I lucked out and had the cheapest door's actuator to replace, front passenger! Haha! Front driver is nearly twice the price! 🙄 Weird. Thanks!
**Update** Just today my stupid lock jammed shut (locked) for no apparent reason! Now I can't even open my front passenger door! Going to have to see if I can't remove the door panel without being able to open the door and hopefully unjam the lock. 🤞
**Update#2** Turns out my after-market actuator only lasted about 2 months. Now it jams locked and jams open every other click. Have to manually force open the lock button next to the handle with a LOT of pressure while simultaneously pressing the electric button for it to open most of the time. Feels like I'm going to break something just to open the door. Ended up ordering a genuine Hyundai part for twice the price. About to re-replace it now. 🙄
Many thanks for creating this video.
😁
Hugely useful even for a 2006 Sonata. Had done 2 replacements already over the years, but the driver's door is different, so did a video refresher when your video appeared and blew my mind with your approach of leaving the actuator attached to the door panel on removal and reinstallation. Wonder if that would have worked with the non-driver doors? Probably! This job got done fast with that tip, thank you!
Thank you!! Just did your video is awesome no bs just show how to get it done
Thank you very much. I only had an issue aligning the window again I have to do it several times.
Very nicely done 👍
Real god job bro thanks so much for this very clear video
Welcome
Thanks buddy! Saved me ~$150. Stupid what they charge for a door handle replacement at a shop
Just the handle?
You see all the crap he had to go through? Thats why they charge alot
tbh 150 isn't a lot for that amount of stuff they are doing to get to the replacement. Sure, this is a job you can do in your garage, but you're paying $150 to save yourself a couple hours.
THANK YOU
Nice Job. I need the same on My G35 drivers door with new window seals.
Maybe you need car?
Thanks was helpful. A pain in the a it was .
Damn that's a lot but thanks for posting it.
Great video i did mine without a video i found a few that were horrible. Wish id found yours before i did it on my own. Great video!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
do you know if this works for the keyless entry push button door handles?
Same model car I have. No issues with the locks (yet 🤞), just curious to see what it entails in case I ever have to go through it. So much dang plastic everywhere! Nice video!
Just replaced a cv axle on it today. Pretty straight forward.
I have a '13 Sonata and within 8 months, 3 of my lock actuators went bad. Sell it while you still can, before it catches on fire.
Just fix the latch on are hyundai sonata..the instructions were perfect and not drug out..thanks
Ya. I quit doing drugs a long time ago. You're welcome.
Great video, I have the manual but the pictures are terrible and very difficult to tell what they refer to or where anything is. I've already replaced both rear locks, which are much more difficult because of the window guide, now my from right door is doing the same thing.
My passenger door lock started messing up recently. Doesn’t unlock when car is in park so I was dreading going through this process because I don’t have money to waste at a shop. I’ll have to do this on my day off. First, I’m going to order the part. Lol
Do its not hard especially when you do it yourself you will understand more about it
I'm doing maine in in do days buy Allah permission.
Wait so if I have to rekey my lock just pop out the rubber pcs and the 8mm bolt and that's it
My has the same problem but I’m afraid I’m gonna mess some part up instead of fixing de broken since there are a lot procedures to take
Don’t know why i enjoyed watching this video 😂
Very important and informative vido
Any idea on what to do if the exterior door handle is very stiff to open? It will open but have to use a lot of force to do so
I don't know.
Just got me a 2011 sonata but I’m not sure what’s going on with my passenger door. Noticed the door interior light came on when I took an exit on my left.. it also unlocked.. pushed the door from the inside the next day and the light came on but she didn’t unlock… so I’m not sure if it’s an electrical or mechanical problem. Anybody have a clue?
Question is it the same steps for the right side?
I think so.
Good video besides when you put the actuator back together you fast forwarded the step to reconnect everything.
Trying to figure out how to speed past the unimportant things. Don't wanna waste anyone's precious time ya know. Reverse procedure.
Thanks! Did you have to reprogram the keyfob to work with the new actuator or did it work automatically?
It worked without.
2013 hyundai sonata rear door actuator went bad unlock and lock but does not open from inside or outside, I’ve tried pulling and pushing on the cable inside the car within the handle but no luck. Starting to think the child safety is engaged.
I thought I've seen badly designed lock actuator assemblies until I saw this thing up close, it's amazing how terribly engineered this thing is.
Do I have to remove the window and door lock to swap out the actuator?
I forgot what I did yesterday. Thank god I made a video.
My issue is the opposite side, copilot lock, it barely moves when locking or unlocking. Do I have to replace it?
Probably. Hard to say for sure.
How long did it take to do all that from start to finish? I know you sped up a few things to keep the video short.
Trying to gauge how long it would take a Hyundai tech to get it done since I'm wary of digging that far into my own door (and removing the window glass)
It's a simple process. I don't answer how long/how much type questions.
I took apart mine without anyones videos and took me a hour.....now i know how to take it all apart i could take it apart in 10-15mins.
Excellent video, let me ask you something. I understand that the problem this Sonata had was in the power lock, but did the door open from the interior Chrome handle or not. I am very confused and I don't know what to change. I'll explain right away. 2013 sonata 2.0 Turbo, my passanjer door was working fine until me and my nephew get into a miss understanding and the door lock suffered a brain fart. He was opening from the out side while I was unlocking from the main switch and the famous, now, not now, not yet, it's lock still? and that happened.
Now the door is like always locked, the small chrome piece to unlock like in your video is not responding nor the handle from outside, ONLY the handle from inside open the door. Any idea which of all these parts when wrong, could be the same as yours, if your car was not opening from outside. IDEAS PLEASE, THANK YOU SO MUCH, THIS VIDEO IS THE WAY VIDEOS SHOULD BE MAKE, THANKS AGAIN
You should brobably open it up, and see if you notice anything broken, or bent.
I’d like to see you do the rear doors I had a real bitch of time getting everything back in
Buenos días. Tengo cerrada la puerta tracera izquierda de un Sonata 2013. No abre ni por dentro ni por fuera. Como abrirla?
Me hablo no espanyolie. Is that a question?
Most importantly how do you OPEN passenger door to fix actuator ?
I’ve been looking for the same video and I can’t find one.
Every single little thing is the same but on the opposite side like mirror but it's the exact same.
our 2011 sonata driver's side door lock is grinding. read that it's time to replace the actuator, does the replacement require removing everything in your video just to swap out the actuator? :( THANK YOU BY THE WAY FOR THE GREAT VID!
Everything is in one unit.
@@RustBeltAuto so definitely have to do the full removal in your vid to swap ugh. lol thank you!
How to I replace my back door actuator when the door won’t open at all??
I don't know.
I have the same situation for the same model but my door won't open from inside and outside, how should I open it?
I dont know. Sounds like it wont unlock.
I have the same problem with my grandmother's Sonata. You're going to have to force it open. From the inside just pull as hard as you can on the door lock (not the handle).
I have a question so my door stays locked driver side I can’t even manually key open my car door will this door lock actuator help?
I cant help with that
@@RustBeltAuto What is it ?
@@daniellesmith2101 i would probably roll down the window, take out some weatherstripping or something, and look down in the door to see what's going on.
@@RustBeltAuto I was told it can be door actuator cause my driver door stays locked and won’t open up at all even when I try to manually key open it
@@daniellesmith2101 i dont know.
My front passenger won't unlock with the remote clicker for the passenger to get in. All the other doors open fine. But when I put the transmission into drive the passenger lock closes fine. Frustrating because I brought it to the dealer while my warranty was still and said only the driver side opens not realizing only the passenger side was faulty. The rep opened the rear door and said its fine see? So now I have to fix it on my dime. Argh. Any idea what I need to buy?
Also, after I picked up the car for a clock spring repair on the steering wheel my gas mileage reads 13 mpg. It was 20 mpg before the repair. I brought it in earlier in the year when if dropped from 24 mpg to about 16 mpg. They did a fuel service, I changed the spark plugs, air filter and it was only marginally better. The dealer tried to blow it off as driving style. But I drive this car pretty conservatively. Should I try a fuel injection cleaner?
You should do the actual math every time you fill up. You should also consider buying cheap gas. It is getting really expensive, and gas stations might be cheating for profit. In the 70's, and 80's people used to water it down.
I’m a Hyundai tech there was a recall to replace all four….. in the 🗑 they went
She just got the recalled engine replaced, because it was locked up. it was 10k miles over the recall. Is there a time, mileage limit for the actuator recall?
@@RustBeltAuto they have ended the “ campaign “ I love those engines
@@RustBeltAuto No there not
great video worked for me for some reason the window was a bitch to put back in
Around 5:51 min
Does anyone know the name of that part? Is it rod clipper or something?
It’s called an Actuator
Does that pay about 2 hours labor ? Thanks for the upload.
I don't know.
@@RustBeltAuto ok thanks for the reply.
It's not the switch, the switch opens and closes its the door handle inside and outside that doesnt work. Should I get an actuater or is it the door handle
I don't know what you should do.
OK bye
Love the fast forward you do, and straight to the point but what a piece of shit job to do .. the kids gonna have to use the key im gonna pass😅
At least it was one door 🤣
I just replaced the actuator and its still not working… what is my issue now?!😩 Dude…
False Alarm!!! It didnt work the first go! Now it is!!! 😆🤣😂
@@Nox223Gaming 😝
@@RustBeltAuto Thanks for the video man! Been 5 years ignoring this door and your video was the only one that showed me how to do it. Thank you so much. Much Love
What about the ribbites
You a frog?
ok bye.
Get that through the HOLE.
It's an opening.
Thanks for share the video bro, My Elantra 2017 has the same problem, is a mess to do that job for a stupid 10 cms wire, but i'll have to do it. 👍
Good grief, what a godawful design. the fact that I need to remove the window to fix this is absolutely insane.
It is very terrible, not just Engineering, but the parts they use are flimsy like a paper notebook. I wouldn’t have such a problem changing it out, but you feel like you’re throwing money down a rat hole. Replacement parts are so cheaply made. We really didn’t know how good we had it when we were changing regulators in the 90s and early 2000s. These cars are absolutely P_th_tic
Just tried to do this to replace my fiancés door check. Whose idea at Hyundai was it to make you have to disassemble the entire goddamn door to replace a fucking door check. Garbage engineering for garbage cars I guess.
If I could count the “I’m just gonna” & “just like” “I just gotta”
I’d be lost for numbers🥸
Lost at 3?
