2001 explorer door latch/ actuator problems?
This is my problem.
1.my drivers side door handle is loose on the outside a litlle floppy, but the door opens ok.
2. the door will not unlock with key or code drivers side only from the outside. I cant unlock the power door lock from inside the car with the door closed using the unlock switch,it moves but does not go all the way up, but it will unlock if the door is open. The only way i can get the door unlocked while sitting in the car is by pulling on the door handle. I guess it sounds like the actuator might be ok, since the door lock goes up and with the door open. maybe it is just a spring? So, basically if i lock my doors , I have to open the passenger side with the key and crawl over to the drivers side and pull on the handle to unlock the drivers side door so i can get in the car.
thx for the help!
Also sometimes the back hatch is a little uncooperative, but thats the least of my worries at this point
