Technical Rear door lock

[g4jvf]

Sorry to be a pain... Panda 2012 rear drivers side door opens from inside but not outside. Child lock is OFF. I seem to remember a post with instructions on how to get to the lock assy and the fault was a seized motor shaft which was lubricated and fixed the fault. Can't find that post sadly. Anybody else seen it and knows where it is? Thanks folks

Central locking error.. | FIAT Panda (2012+)

Hi Folks, Just been out to the Panda (Cross Diesel '65 Plate) and the central locking on the rear drivers door seems to have suddenly given up the ghost. The door will not open at all from the outside and although the interior handle is in the recessed locked position (hope that makes sense) it...

Hi, I have the same issue, dismantled the door, there's a 99p kiddies toy motor which activates the lock had seized,

freed it up. Think the brushes have corroded away., Looks like a new rear door lock or try and match the motor and pinion gear and then try to knock the motor out it of its, flimsy mounting.

They real know how to make cheap and charge high.

That's a bummer...... got mine to do next week. Did you have any gotchas removing the door card and geting to the motor?

The window winder spring clip's a little bugger to slide out, piece of card under a thin pry bar so you don't scratch the paint work while popping out the panel clips, every things torx under clip off panels behind the door release handle and handle, doddle beyond that.

Motor looks like a fc 280 or 300, need to measure it when I try to replace it.
