Passenger side central locking

  1. My model of MX-5 is: __ NC1
  2. I’m based near: __ Halifax
  3. I’m looking for technical help or recommendations on: __ Central locking

Hi

So on my NC1 my central locking on the passenger side doesn’t work but does on the drivers side. Does anyone know how to fix this? It’s really annoying me to be honest.

Cheers

It’s usually the door lock actuator at fault, these usually give up first on the driver’s side with more use.
Replacement is the only way after checking the obvious first, sticky lock (lube) or anything snagging inside the door void (highly unlikely)
They have SH units from time to on eBay, make sure you search for LH or RH as they aren’t interchangeable. TBH the price asked for SH you just may well by new, dealer or Mx5parts for genuine Mazda.

Have a look at this. I obtained tons of info on this .
