Has anyone got info how to check drivers door lock motor?
Haynes is pretty vague as usual, I managed to get the b*****r out eventually, expecting a seperate motor, but it's all one piece.
Central locking won't lock unless drivers door is locked with the key, so I suspect the motor is u/s, but I'd like to check it before I buy a new one.

my dads also got a focus with the same bloody problem except its the passenger door.
havent got a clue whats wrong with it

I have sorted mine by fitting a second hand lock/motor assembly (off eBay, £14.50 inc postage).
It is rather awkward to get the lock out of the door due to it being a complete assembly, lock, motor, connecting rods & internals for the handle but it is do-able, just be gentle with it.

you probably need a new lock assy quite common on focus you coul try the other side same plug fitting if you do try that you need to test it with the lock in locked position a new lock is about £90 inc vat
