I have a stupid Door/Lock problem....Please help
Ok. I have a 2001 Gs300. The passenger rear door is acting retarded.
Unlocking it from the remote or Master switch.....it doesn't unlock. In order to open the door, I have to put pressure on the lock and open the handle at the SAME time. From the outside, I have to reach my hand in thru the window and push the lock and use the handle at the same time.
Basically its stuck in lock mode.
Once in a while, the door will allow me to open it normally (maybe for a 2-3 days) and then it will go bad again.
I dont think that it is an actuator thing. I kind of feel like its the cable to the lock itself. Like the cable is jammed or something.
