Hi there
I have just fitted a central locking actuator to my rear door, works fine but it operates in reverse of the rest of the doors. Does anyone have a proven trick/ fix for this?? Cheers

Nope plugs straight in, wires are in the same spot (colours the same also) as the old actuator.
My EF is a 1994 model. The actuator seemed to have 96 on it - odnt know if this is useful though. Cheers

hmmm... easiest thing I suppose is swap two actuators and see if the problem follows, if it doesn't then you have a wiring problem, if it does then you have an actuator problem.

Could it be as simple as the new actuator being in the opposite position to the other 3 when it was installed. IE new actuator was in lock position where others were unlocked or vice versa.

Yep, pretty sure I've done this before as well. |

The front and rear actuators look the same but they are slightly different - fronts have 4 wires, rears have 3 wires.
The front and rear actuators work in opposite operation - try swapping the lock/unlock wires (red/yellow & yellow/black).

Actually made a real obvious mistake, the arm on the lock itself has 2 holes, i put the actuator stirrup through the wrong hole lol. it works great now!
My window reg decided to have a spaz at the same time, i put some vaseline on the bailey channel and it seems to work great now, althought the weather here is a bit "hows ya father" so it may not last

The spare hole is for the rear door snipper button,which EA-ED had, but was deleted from EF/EL's.
