Video for Door Lock Actuator?
- Thread starter PontiacHO
- Start date
Bumping this one up again in hopes there may be some GM techs here. Does the actuator need to be removed from the door along with the latch as an assembly? I’ve ordered just the actuator (Dorman) and wondering if I should have ordered the entire latch and actuator together.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Lock actuator is integral to the latch assembly. I've done a few in the families Gen 7 Malibu's.
Well since the thread isn't getting much response I'll post something tangential but not necessarily helpful: I had to replace the outer door handle on a '19 Canyon rear door. There's a slick trick to hold the paddle arm in place with fishing line when installing the outer handle. Otherwise installing the outer handle requires complete disassembly of the door to gain access from the inside.
I don't know if the full size trucks are even constructed the same. But if so this might prove helpful if you forget to reinstall the outer handle in the process. Sorry I can't be more helpful than that, but here's a bump for ya

Got it done this morning. Stuff comes apart easier than it goes back! Lock actuators should be warranted for life. It failed in the locked position. The side where my 3 year old granddaughter rides. Not good if there was a crash, God forbid.
