The central locking and the trunk handle doesn's work. The electric motor is all that is wrong with mine. I found a new whole unit for $322 and I found a place in California that rebuilds them for $400. So I guess I will go for the new unit. The guy that rebuilds them would not sell me just the motor. He said it took him 6 months to find out the supplier. Big markup in this item. You should be able to buy just the motor for under $100. After I replace my unit, I am going to take the motor out of the old one and see if a local alternator shop can fix mine. Probably just need new brushes.
