Door locks I have a 2003 honda civic and the driver side door lock is broken. I want to change the passenger lock to the driver side lock. When I take the door apart I can't get the lock out, it's stuck. Is there a pin or something holding it in?

the solonoid inside the door if it has one or it could be a complete unit type all in one

The door lock/unlock input from the driver's key switch goes to the Door Multiplex control unit (main switch), the Door multiplex control unit then sends a signal on the BUS (CAN) circuit to the passenger's multiplex control unit; the passenger's multiplex control unit then controls all the door locks. The passenger's door lock key switch inputs to the passenger's multiplex control unit, if the locks work from the passenger's side key switch but not the driver's side key switch, the most likely cause is the driver's multiplex control unit (main switch) not sending the signal to the passenger's side multiplex control unit. This could also be the drivers side door lock actuator. Hope this helps!

very common problem is the door lock actuator. i would recommend replace that. a good idea also would be to remove the door panel and check all the rods that connect to the assembly and make sure one didnt pop off.

you may need to replace the door locking actuator, they do tend to go bad over times. does the driver side door lock automatic when using the lock button on the driver side. if you can lock and unlock the driver side door with a switch, my guess would not be the locking actuator, it might be in the remote locking module.

if the passenger side works with the fob and the power button and not the diver it is def the driver door lock actuator.

hi there you say you have had the lock changed do you mean the key hole or the door closure part of the lock?
if you changed the key part its the main lock that's faulty and the reveres is true ,
if the remote is working on one door it is not the remote that's the problem.
i hope that this has been helpful regards John

Remove the doro finisher of your door.
Wirth a light, you should see a loose link rod between the key-lock and the door-lock. Just click it back in place.
If it is a zamac lock link, that's broken, you should replace the system

bye a diff car hondas are nothing but problems

There are retaining screws around the handle and the door release handle. The screws may be covered with plastic circle cover. Take those out and just start pulling the plastic panel away from the door gently yet firmly. Once you get the panel loose lift up on the panel to get it off the door.. be careful or wires that may be connected to the panel when you take it off the door.
