Central locking door motor

[Sigilobaphomet]

My drivers door has decided it doesn't like the cold damp mornings and won't open, it's fine by the time I get to work (after climbing in through the passenger side) - thoughts? Knackered central locking door motor? If so any pointers? Make/model/where to get a decent one?

Hi I got some central locking motors from a manufacturer called hawk try googling hawk central locking I got a kit for a 4 door car as wanted spare motors Kit was less than 20 quid Once you've removed door card its a 5 minute swap its plug and play same units as a noble just remove it without adjusting the rods that connect to the lock ( the locking latch is off a metro and door handles also ) hope this helps

It could also be a gummed-up locking mechanism - you might want to clean out and relube everything first...

WwThat was my thought, damp getting into lube and jamming, as by the time I get to work it opens - but want to strip the door down once so better to have all the parts I might need to hand , at 13 years old a metro door motor must ne getting to the end of its life anyway!
