Hello i m new to the forum and have had my 2003 mini cooper s for a little over a month.
In some cars the door lock actuator is positioned below the latch.
Hi guys wonder if anyone could help us out i have a 2004 mini cooper s passenger door locks with remote fob but does not unlock from remote fob or toggle switch you can release via the handle inide but thats about it i have changed the passenger side actuator but still have the same probelm any ideas.
Car door lock actuators are designed to lock and unlock a door without the effort of pulling on a cable and rod.
A rod connects the actuator to the latch and another rod connects the latch to the knob that sticks up out of the top of the door.
Now you can replace the actuator fixing bolts through the door.
Look at post 146 on page 6 for good pictures that are referred to.
Mini cooper s door actuator posted in problems questions and technical.
I am having problems with the passenger door lock opens from outside but not inside i bought a new lock but still does the same the new lock was fitted with the cables attached i could see the lever arm with the white plastic on the actuator moving down and how it opens from the outside when i pull the bowden cable the lever arm doesn t move fitted the handle on the door and still doesn.
Open the back panel of the door lock actuator and unhook the interior door handle cable then set the cable aside.
You will probably find it easiest to refix the external bowden connector before you actually bolt the actuator to the door.

I did not realize that my driver s door lock actuator was broken until getting on to the forum.
If you want to attempt to repair your existing lock actuator read on.
The external lock bowden cable is again done by feel alone so make sure you are clear on how this fits together before you put the new actuator into the door.
Step 3 disassemble the door lock actuator.
