Skoda Fabia mk1 rear door actuator solenoid removing and refitting.

 

Hello I've made some progress so far I've removed the rear door card and drilled out the rivets to get the metal door skin of.

 

I can now see inside the rear door but how do you take the block connector of the actuator solenoid?

 

Next how do I get the actuator solenoid out of the door which is locked?

 

Thanks

 

 

If the door is deadlocked you need to smash the plastic lock body using a hammer and chisel, it's a horrible job, try searching for step by step instructions, it's been a while since I did mine.

I smashed the dead lock hammer and chisel then used pliers to twist the rest of the plastic parts.

 

I then open the door moving the lock parts inside Thanks

The next problem the bolts on the lockdoor are rounded of rusted I noticed. So what the best way to get the bolts out drill them?

 

Does anybody know the 2 bolt sizes length and thread as I need to replace these 2 joined on to the old lock.

 

I plugged in new deadlock motor works fine so least I know that work once back in the door.

 

Thanks
