Re: KQ driver's side door lock not opening

The issue has been resolved and thought I would leave an update in case anyone has a similar problem.
The lock mechanisms come in either 3 wire or 5 wire. 5 wire is for cars with central locking AND remote entry, whereas 3 wire is required for central locking only. I required the 3 wire lock. The part is obsolete and not available new from Ford, and very hard to find from local wreckers. I ended up having to go to a Mazda wrecker and was told that I could use a 5 wire lock afterall.
The guys at Allmaz (Clayton Sth, Vic) were very helpful, but I probably could have found one from a local wrecker if I knew I could use 5 wire lock.
The new mechanism is in and the door now locks/unlocks properly.
Cheers
