It turned out to be the door actuator not resetting from the outter door carrier cable. I managed to get into the door and open it, pulled the actuator out a mind gave it some lube. The spring appears to be fine but not sure if it's lost any force or not.
Just wondering what is most like the issue? Would it be the cable length being too short on the new carrier or the door actuator mech spring not strong enough anymore. Also I tested it like 30 times when I put it back and it was fine then took it for a drive again and it stopped working again. Could the central locking cause any issues? The central locking does work fine lock/unlocking.
Ideas? I really don't want to pull the carrier out unless I have to as it was a bitch to do nothing aligns easy.
Cheers
