Central Locking Not Opening Far Enough

[sakid]

Hi, hoping someone can help with an annoying issue I have.

When I press the unlock button on the central locking remote the drivers door lock does not come all the way up. It's about 2-3mm short of unlocking far enough to be able to open the door.

Ill three other doors open OK.

If I use the key to open the door or reach from other doors to unlock manually it works OK.

Can someone please point me in the right direction on how to fix this?

Cheers

I just had a look in Gregories 273. "If the doors will not unlock using the remote control transmitter or either keys, but all of the doors will unlock using the key in the drivers door, a fault is located in the remote receiver module. Use the wiring diagram at the end of this chapter to check the remote receiver wiring and connections".

i would maybe suggest the actuator is shagged? ive had one fail before whereby it it just stayed in one position. relatively easy to change out, trickiest bit is not breaking all the plastic grommets that connect actuator rod linkages together

I would pull the door car off and watch the mechanism go up and down when you unlock/lock it. might be something simple like a missing washer causing it to not push high enough.
