power door locks

96 Impreza 2.2l auto a/c awd wagon..

 

I have one power door lock . When you use the drivers door Key lock to Unlock ,

4 including the hatch/tailgate move right away , but the one on the rt rear door has a 1-2 sec delay , then moves .This happens every time. At least of the time we noticed . Pulling the door panel off today.

 

The only door power door lock is with the key on the drivers door , none inside .

 

Any thoughts or ideas will help .

Thanks:-\

When you pull the door panel off, check the locking mechanism rods and see if they are moving freely. I'd also check the ground wire going to the motor. It may have degraded.

Will let you know what I find.

When I pulled the door pad off , there was rust on the lock pivot and the locking locking mechanism rod was bent . Almost looks as if door was replaced. Cleaned it and greased it . Checked wiring with a meter , good connection too . Cleaned and greased all the rest of the doors and hatch. All the locks work 100% .

 

thanks Josh , on the tip about the rod , saved me a lot of time on that
