My drivers side door lock has slowly stopped working.
The keyless entry doesnt work and the button on the door doesnt work.
When i put the key in from the outside and turn it it unlocks it but theres no Springy feeling that turns the key back to straight up and down, it just stays there untill i turn it back.
When i push the rod down its got a good bit of resistance and it feels quite chunky.
If i get the door panel off to take a look at this, what should I look for?

I just changed an actuator 2 weeks ago, and there really isn't anything that could bind it up. I got the actuator for right at $35 at the dealership. they are fairly common to go out, and they usually keep them in stock. wish I had a free hint...

Mine happened too. I had to fix them under warranty along with my CMC, and CV boot

majestic has it for $31.09 plus shipping. list is $44.42. the passengers side is cheaper for some reason. the $35 I paid is with my discount.
