central locking motor

It looks like my locking motor on the rear drivers side if cooked

are they serviceable?
only had a quick look on ebay and they are going for £120!!!

I've greased everything and nothing is seized

anyone else had issues?

You could perhaps get a multimeter and with the door open and door card off check the supply when selecting it to lock. Are these 'handed.' If not and it's not too much mither swap the rear two over and see if the fault transfers perhaps?

Pink and Orange (two seperate single coloured cables) are your lock/unlock motor inputs.

As Munch stated the gaitored umbilical cables is a known vulnerable weakspot. A gentle tug of each cable where it exits the gaitor normally reveals the culprit. If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

i will have to give that a try, i couldn't read anything on my multimeter it moves to quick!!
i did however have continuity across the two cables to earth, when central locking activated the continuity paused for a second so i am pretty sure the cables are intact

I would check them visually not just by meter

Check the cables first.....

As mentioned the pink and orange cables there is an excellent photo of the common issue in the simultaneous thread running below.

Fair play guys you were spot on

There was a broken wire in the rubber conduit, the cable Land Rover have used is not the best for the job it was very brittle

Replaced the faulty section and harmony has been restored

Thanks lads

Sorry pj
