Locks won't work in the heat?

[SonoranLC]

Anybody else with this issue? I live in AZ and the power door locks don't work when it's 95+.

I know this may sound crazy but it's consistent and been doing this for over a year. A quick google search showed this to be an issue with other toyotas/lexuses as well.

What's the fix?

THANKS!

A very common issue. You can pay an "arm and a leg" for the official Toyota fix, or you can replace the small electric motor inside the actuator.

Search for "Door Lock Actuator" or "Mabuchi"
