Hey there! I just swapped out the door actuator, so it opens from the outside, but now it won't lock. Any suggestions?

There is a two-cable model and a three-cable model; have you installed the right one, buddy?

After I disassembled it once more and oiled the cable, it started working again. I have also purchased a replacement lock for the front one since it has broken.

Turning off the auto-lock feature, which locks all doors when the vehicle reaches a particular speed, tends to make them last longer, at least in my experience.
