all right guys hi this is Edie what we
have today here is 2008 Cadillac CTS and
the problem for today is I mean was I
feel just fixed it that's why I won't
show it to you the problem was I
couldn't open the door it was like this
was like and I heard I hear something
actually happening over there but it
wasn't I still couldn't open from so I
had to get on the passenger side to open
the door from inside
that's how I would get in the car so
what I did is I ordered the part
actually this is the problem it's it's a
lock it's the door lock actuator model
this is the part 2 - 9 - 2 9 4 3 and you
can write buy it online I believe the
dealer sells them for 170 something and
you can get it up at the market for like
130 so so how I replaced it
first of all you have to take the panel
off obviously so there's a screw in here
one screw here and you have to there is
a plastic trim
we have to take it out you can take a
regular screwdriver and pry it from the
bottom here fully not to break it and
it's off there will be two four screws
over here and over here and then
carefully a little by little we have to
remove the panel the cable is attached
right here so what you do you take your
and you are not gonna do this but
partially so just see this plastic
inside this piece right here have to
push it and then you just take it out so
once you took it out
there are 2 T 3 T 30 star vaults you
take these two out and there will be one
more thing I'll show you in this lock we
once you have it out you have to
disconnect from here did you see that
yellow piece whether we have to
disconnect it's gonna come out the same
way like this thing okay just like this
something with this
okay so it holds approximately like this
and it's pretty straight forward forward
just take it out take the new one put it
and then just put the door panel on ya
back home and you'll be set
I fixed mine this is how fix mine I saw
the other video for the guy he's a nice
video on how to replace those little
things and yeah it's not a situation for
MA for me so this is how I fix mine if
