polikoff Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I have replaced the left side rear door lock assembly. Since then the alarm goes off intermittently. Does anyone know what can be the problem. The wiring seems ok. and the door locks ok with the key or handle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polikoff Posted December 26, 2022 Author Share Posted December 26, 2022 I didn't get any replies to either of my posts so I carried on regardless. The door lock that wouldn't undo, I took the door panel off from the inside of the vehicle, without damaging anything, completely removed the window motor and other fittings, loosened off everything on the lock that I could and wearing a thick pair of gloves I rocked the lock assembly rather forcibly backwards and forwards until it broke in half. I then ripped out the broken bits and whilst doing this the door unlocked. After that it was easy. I replaced the door lock with a unit from Ebay for £28:00. Th unit I fitted started to play up after a few months, with other lights apart from the door light, coming on. I bought another unit for a similar price and fitted it and It apears to have solved the problem. The original supplier refunded me without any hassle. It apears to have solved the problem. I worked in Zambia for the Land Rover dealer in Kitwe for a few years back in the 1970's and the door locks on those were a lot easier to replace.
