Thanks! Saved me a lot of money and time. I've never removed a door panel or replaced a door actuator before. Felt good. One area where I messed up was not securing the green cable as far down as it would go in the door. I would open the door once and then it wouldn't work anymore because the cable kept slipping out of its holder. I used an aftermarket actuator because the OEM's are only lasting me about 2-3 years. This is the third set of actuators on this 2013 Sequoia Platinum. Total parts were just under $100 for driver and passenger doors on the front.

Yes. Are you sure you got the rod with the star on the end from the outside handle in the correct way? You aren’t changing anything except the motor really. It has no impact on the keys.

Would I have to do anything to my fob for the doors to unlock/lock when the actuator is replaced or is it good to go after installment?

Question!!!! What if my door is shut and I can't open it? I know for sure it's everything in this video that I have to do but the part with the bar with tight space is what's loose or off and now I can't get my back driver side door open???

One of my rear locks won’t “lock” when I use the key fob. It unlocks no problem. When I move the lock switch manually I can unlock and lock also. Do you think the actuator is going bad in my instance?

He is very right on making sure that metal rod is in place 😂...what a pain in the ass to get the door open. Luckily a 3ft rod from Homedepot with a hook bent on the end and an endoscope taped to the rod. I was able to fish the makeshift rod through the window switch panel hole and somehow hook the lever opening the door. Took about an hour of fishing around and bending the rod but I can't imagine what a mechanic would have charge me!! Less learn watch the whole video!! Haha

VERY thorough instructions. I am glad I came across your video. My husband followed it precisely and now I don't have to use the long handle of the squeegee to lock/unlock the passenger door.

What is the failure rate on these actuators? Mine started acting up and I found this video. I just finished changing out the actuator on the Driver's Door. Everything on the driver's door now works(Button and Keyless lock and unlock as well as key lock/unlock) but the other 3 doors do not lock/unlock from the button or the key fob. Also I get no audible beep when locking from the key fob. I get a beep when I unlock but it only unlocks the driver's door. Does this mean that 1 of the other 3 doors also has a failed actuator?
