GOLD Star
With the onset of cold weather, one of the power lock actuators on the rear doors stopped moving to full lock or unlock.
I removed the assembly from the vehicle, cleaned all the old caked on grease sludge from the linkages with carb cleaner, and now want to relube with something that will stay slippery at 0 degrees. I did try some spray-on white lithium grease but it looks like a clear liquid and I'm not sure it is up to the task.
The actuator motor proper is fine and seems to operate OK on the bench.
Open to thoughts and suggestions from those that have rebuilt this mechanism before?
