Solenoid replacement - question

Recommended Posts

I have the door stripped down and have the new solenoid in position with air and connector fitted.

 

Question is I can't get the metal wire to clip back in to the plastic connector to operate the lock. I have removed the door handle to get more light in.

 

Anybody got any tips? Turning the wire in the enclosed space whilst prising the plastic clip open is not easy.

 

Should have left this to the garage to do!

Answer. Break the clip. Swear alot. Remove the lock break it too. Try and get a new lock and find none at MKs. Search UK stock. Get last one from Swansea.

 

Fitting was a fiddle but made it all go back together.

 

Door central locking still not working so it must be electrical or the pump?

 

£50 poorer so will have to stay like that for a while.

 

Opens fine from passenger side but only once from drivers side after using the passenger side to open. Electrical signal is negligible at the connector so may be the cause?
