Faulty Door Lock Actuator May Cause Power Door Locks to Activate Intermittently on Honda Accord

Problem overview

Several symptoms can occur due to the power door lock actuators failing. These can include doors that don't lock, doors that lock themselves and doors that won't unlock. Often times these problems are intermittent and there's no rhyme or reason as to when the issues will occur.

Once it has been diagnosed and determined one of the door actuators is the problem, the part can not be repaired and must be replaced.
