Rear door lock issue

[Jak68]

Hi

I have started to get issues with my rear drivers side door lock

Sometimes it will lock and sometimes it doesn't, also sometimes I cannot open the door from the outside or the inside.

I also have problems with the window coming down slightly(about half an inch) and when you first start driving the dash flashes up as though the door is open, the door lock button on the drivers door flickers and also the button that locks the rear windows from opening flickers, this probably happens for the first 2 or 3 miles and then stops, plus the alarm can randomly start going off after the doors are locked.

I am hoping this is down to the door lock as I have now got a replacement, does anyone know any good instructions of how to change the lock (including video or photo's)

Thanks

Hi, starting from this morning, the display on my dash in now permanantly showing my rear passenger door as open and also I am unable to open the window for that door (from either the drivers door switch or the rear switch). Could a faulty window motor be causing all of this or could it still be the lock?

Can someone please reply as I was going to try and fix this over the weekend

Thanks

Have a look at #6 in "Heated Mirror and Central locking not working" thread from about a fortnight ago.

Could be broken wire in the loom where it bridges between the door and B pillar. Peel back the rubber gaitor and inspect the wires carefully.

Which is a shorter (better!) version of what I said. A bit of follow-up would be appreciated.
