it's the 2nd switch.

as you already have anothe Door actuator added into the door. Hopefully it's 4 way version you can link up the extra two wires to activate the rest. If the mirco switch is gone.

I don't have pis as Both cars are indisposeded of.

but the switch is located right behind the door lock in the door.

So remove your inner trim panel.

two screws behind the handle - bottom end map pocket screw - door levler screw and door handle pocket screw and pop it off.

remove the plastic enough.

Look for the smallest of about 16 gauge wire or even 18 guage - goign ot the door lock itself. on the side.

You should be able to see the micro switch.

I've been looking into replacment switchs myself.

I haven't updated it but

OLD school 2 button JOYSTICKS - we are talking backin the day type - Pentium PRE days from days of XT's AT's 386's and 486's.
most had long metal tabs on the micro switch that can be adopted.

but as most people have had to add the extra door actuator lock to have remote central locking and have the drivers door lock.

It just depends if it's a primary or a slave. if it's primary it will have two extra out puts that can be used to activate the rest of the doors.

If not you head to JAycar - as disksniff haven't been doing much of it. You buy one single unit and re-place the current one. very simple and effective.


If anyone is wondering if oyu can reatch the damaged metal spring on the switch. Yes it can be tig welded , but size and heat play a role. I haven't tryed it but doubt the switch would work too well afterwards.
