Factory Alarm, figured out what the issue was last night.

Would this be the latch or the actuator?

 

[Ginger]

it would be the sensor aka actuator.

let us know how install goes.

 

[SamCarroll]

Installed the new actuators today. So far no issues. Install took about 30 min each side. Very easy and self explanatory. I'll report after some time if the problem has been rectified or not.

dGlad you got this taken care of. Shit like this drives me batty in my own stuff.

 

[Ginger]

did you get the 30 dollar sensors? or have to spend the 200?

passenger side $30. Driver side had a third plug im guessing for power locks? Not really sure but they didnt make one with that option so you had to buy the whole unit for the driver side. So $212 for driver side.

 

[Ginger]

its like a tease, one side, you will get cheap the other, you get bent over lol

 

[SamCarroll]

thankfully Orielly's had the driver side in stock. Because he bought the cheaper one that said fit on Amazon. Didnt realize it wouldnt work until mid day Sunday, after the truck was apart.

This is the one he bought to replace the driver side.

See how it has the third plug and the band around the back? Different than the one Amazon said would work initially.
