Bob_Acid 0 Posted November 13, 2023 Hi all, first post, although I’ve been using the site a great deal for tech help, thanks for that. I have an ‘86 CTI and my latest problem is that the central locking has packed up on the passenger door. It’s the earlier hexagon type actuator which are hard to find. I’ve opened it up and the motor tabs are snapped off, impossible to get a purchase with solder and the cog is fixed so I can’t switch the motor. I have access to a later donor car with the square actuators but they don’t seem to work being added into the older system. my question is, could I retrofit the complete later system into my older car and what will I need to take out of the donor car? Thanks in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SRDT 146 Posted November 13, 2023 Passenger door has a "dumb" actuator either way so I guess any kind sould work fine if wired correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob_Acid 0 Posted November 14, 2023 I have tried 2 of the later square actuators and neither worked properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
