#22 of 25 Door won't LOCK. 2000 Chevy Venture by fleastiff Jun 09, 2009 (10:09 am)
Front Passenger side door is in the UNlocked position and the lock won't budge.   Neither of the two internal lock buttons will lock it, nor will the key fob button lock it. I've attempted to manipulate the little black lever on the inside of the door handle but it stays put and only indicates the red-tinged area indicating its 'unlocked' status.   It doesn't really interfere with the vehicle's operation in anyway. All the other doors lock. Its just I can't lock the right front door and I don't like it that way!   Anyone have any ideas? Replies to this message: chases (Jun 29, 2009 7:57 am)

Replying to: fleastiff (Jun 09, 2009 10:09 am) it may be messy, but spray some engine degreaser on the lock with the door open and wash it good. You need to get some spray white litheum grease to spray in it when your finished.   does the other electrical things in your door still work?   check all the wires going to the door lock actuator. If you had a meter the readings across the wires would be 12v for lock and then reverse for unlock. some vehicles wont lock unless the latch is made. so take a screwdriver and manually latch the door latch with the door open and see if the lock can move then.

Replying to: gcourage (May 19, 2006 10:46 am) we had the same problem on our 2003 Venture. First time it was the cable. You can see it in the door track, when the door is open. The plastic/rubber casing over the cable was badly frayed causing the door to struggle. Replaced it, that cable cost a fortune too, then its been an issue about every six months.
