we're going to do something a little
different today
one day my car interior life started
flickering while I was driving and now
my car thinks the driver side door is
open all the time this resulted in me
living with no interior live-feed stupid
alarm would go off in the middle of the
night dead batteries and the door open
time would stay on even when I was
driving so I don't know what the exact
problem is but after googling and asking
questions in car forums I narrowed it
down to about three things one needs to
be clean it's very possible that
something spilled on the electronics in
my door - it needs a new door sensor I
ordered this part from my local
dealership and three it could be the
lock actuator I decided to hold off on
ordering this part until I figure out
what the problem is it's more expensive
so I'm going to try the other two
options first okay guys I got my parts
of my tools and hopefully enough know
how to get started let's see what's
going on I'm going to start by replacing
the door sensor because it's the least
invasive I only have to remove one
Philips screw detach the old sensor and
install the new one if this doesn't work
I'm going to open my door panel and do
some more investigating
you
okay the moment of truth let's test it
out it totally works I'm excited but I'm
also like kicking myself for not doing
this sooner it's had I known that it was
going to be a twelve dollar part and one
screw I would have done this a year ago
and has that not worked I would have
moved on but that worked and I'm so
excited that I tried this out I fixed a
car today so just try that repair you've
been putting off you never know you
might surprise yourself
