2003 accord coupe door lock problem. Both door locks move slightly when locking or unlocking with either the remote or the switch on door panel but will not move enough to fully lock or unlock. It happens most of the time but not all the time. The key will open the door fine. Also driver power window will sometimes not opperate (may not be related) Any suggestions??
They get sluggish over time. If you remove them, clean them, and grease them with a light grease; you can probably get them to work again. Ibet they work better when the car is funning, as the voltage is higher from the alternator as compared to the battery.
As for yhe window, you might try some window track lubrication in the tracks. The motor may also be getting tired.

First thing is to try passenger door (that still has key lock for '03,
doesn't it?) Or the rear hatch. I'll bet it won't work there, either,
unless battery is disconnected. My guess is that the remote locking is
staying at "lock" - which is why it works with battery disconnected.
I haven't heard of anything just like your problem, but there have been
many who have to replace the RKEM (Remote Keyless Entry Module) - it's
behind the radio. Usually the doors start to lock & unlock by
themselves.

Depends on how it's done. If you do it, it could be about $2500-$3000. you will have to pull all the necessary hardware, transmission, computer, wiring harness and other parts from a car that has a stick. And swap them over.

You will probably need to replace the power door lock actuator.
Here's a link to one similar to yours.

You can probably get a used one from a salvage yard.
