BMW f10 front left door will not lock

Pete535 · 06-22-2023, 08:00 PM

Hello all, I have a 2012 Bmw 535 and the front driver side door will not lock using the key fob or the button inside the vehicle. Only way it will lock is using the key to manually lock it on the door handle outside the vehicle. It does unlock using the key fob. All other doors working fine. Had the actuator changed and still having the exact same issue. Checked fuses and everything looks good. Any ideas what it could be? Looking forward to any input. Thanks!!

Sounds like the actuator is dead.

Agreed. What brand actuator was it replaced with? I've seen many off-brand units stop working or just not work out of the box. I'd replace with genuine BMW if possible.
