looking for some door actuator for my gs400.....anyone has problem with there remote key? i seem to not get good signal with mines until i approach the door...

 

welcome to cl you might wanna try the classifieds section for the actuator ,also did you try to replace the batteries in your key ?? where in fl you from ??

 

carson toyota ususally has the best prices for these parts. it's a common problem with our cars.

 

I posted a month or so ago in the classifieds looking for an actuator, and got like 15 people piggybacking on my thread also looking for actuators. I called Carson to see if they'd do a group buy, but they said "not this time." Maybe someone else might have better luck?

 

Hey mine started acting up recently.
Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.

Does anyone know what a new one costs.

Also does anyone know how many hrs of labor it takes to install

Thanks

anywhere between 250 - 350 for parts + labor

 

I have a question about replacing the acuator. Are the original parts faulty? Meaning.... if I spend $250 on a new one are they designed so this problem does not re-occur??

 

these parts are not faulty, they are moving parts and like all moving parts, they wear down and then, die.

think about it, count how many times you lock and unlock your doors and multiply this by how old your car is. it will wear out eventually.

 

$250 - $350???? Mine is the driver rear door. I'd rather spend $350 on some new rotors or an Intake than a door actuator. I'm 6'4' - NO One sits behind me!!!!

 

damn your tall... 6feet plus 4 feet.... thats like 10 feet tall ! i think i seen you on TLC worlds tallest people. just playing. Im 6'2" and drive layed low like im in a rap video.. people still sit behind me. and im having the same problem thinking about checking out salvage yards...

 

How many do you need?
I was hoping I could just get one
1999 GS400
