Hi guys in need some help if someone had any similar problems. When I press my button on the fob passenger door and boot unlocks but drivers side does not. Same with locking car all doors lock but drivers door does not? Randomly happened today ? Any help of diagnosis appreciated.

I had this problem on my dc2 Take the door card off and grease the whole mechanism it should clear it up 👍🏻

This eventually happens to all DC5's and its most likely the actuator, to test it take the door card off and connect the actuator directly to the battery (you might need to rig up some long wires to do this), if nothing happens replace the actuator, from memory I'm guessing this was around £45, its a fiddly job but more than doable at home. There's probably a guide on here or the RSX forum somewhere, and to be 100% sure you could check to see if the harness is providing a pulse to the actuator when you click the fob but to be honest id bet money on the actuator.
