Thank you for watching my video, I appreciate the support ! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Not being an experienced mechanic I rely on really detailed tutorials such as this when working on a project for the first time. Thank you for your excellent camera work and well thought out explanations. I will come back here when I have other projects and recommend others to your channel
Thank you, I appreciate it.

hello could you please help How will I open the car from the remote control there is no signal
Did you replace the battery? Maybe the key fob is broken and needs to be replaced
@@themechanic6117 no i changed the batteries opens and closes well just no beep
This is exactly what I needed. My unlock button on the outside wasn't working anymore. The instructions to remove and replace the outside handle are perfect! An easy task. Thank you!
Glad the video helped you 👍
I dunno about you, but if that bolt gets dropped into the door, I ain't going after it. I'm finding another to replace it. Your daughter is adorable
Lmao I was wondering how many people would do that 🤣 I'd try removing the speaker first to get in there with a magnet. Thank you 😁
Dude! Your video helped me so much today. Mine was the rear left door, but most of the steps were absolutely the same. Thanks for your great step-by-step and may your daughter find ALL the diamonds!
Great to hear! Lol thank you
This video was amazing! Did step by step and was able to replace my door actuator and save a ton of money. Thanks
Glad the video helped you. Thanks for watching
Great job. Nice to see a job from start to finish. Hope you find the missing diamond 💎😂😂

You're welcome
Thanks for another great video, mech a nic!
Works for a 2018 Hyundai Genesis G80, slightly few extra bolts on inside door panel to remove (the silver metal ones (2) must come off for the panel to come off with lock assembly) but very similar! Part number for Genesis G80 is 81310B1000
This is an excellent video and is pretty easy to follow. I just saw the video and was able to do it on my car in under an hour.
Nice! Glad the video helped you
You have the cutest kids ever
Thank you!
Great job bro. Longtime haven't seen a start to finish video, I see that your yard have diamond laying around😀😁

You just saved my life. Thank you kind sir
Thanks for watching

Big thumb bro.

I just finished replacing same in my car Kia Cadenza. It's almost same. But pay attention to window glass alignment.
It'll be a diamond sweetheart...in 400,000,000 years 🤣
I miss having little ones. They are all teens now.

Thank you
Hey. I use the same Husky contractor bags. Lol. Thanks Jon.
Good stuff lol 👍
Very informative and great video with lot of caution/instructions. Where do we get the OEM part for the 2013 Sonata driver door panel?
Nice tutorial!
Thank you 👍😁
good
With just a handful of diamonds that size, you'll be wealthier than Scotty Kilmer!
"Rev up your diamond mines!!!"
🤣lmao time to quit fixing car! I have diamonds! Lol
Brother you made that look easy 👍 I have to say Hyundai gets 3 👍 up for there intelligent design..Oh yeah a car with a non cracked windshield, it’s like a rare diamond that was found in the rough..🤪
🤣👍it's seems like a pain in the butt but once you've done it before you can fix this issue in record time
That appears to be a common , crystalline mineral called Drusy Quartz.
That whole door inner workings are fascinating, how everything is modular,
interlocking. Was the actual cause of failure determined, or was it a "Non Serviceable"
part? Strange, how all of that is considered one part.
Great fkn job !
First video I see of you and your very detailed explanation, you already have my like. I have the problem that the safety of that same door does not open when deactivating the alarm, will it be the same part that I have to replace?
Yes it sounds like it would be the same part
I saw some had the same issue he took it the dealer an cost him alot!!
I can see this costing a ton at the dealer!
Man all that for a door handle geez ! Hey jon I got to get by you to that small evap leak fixed let me know how busy you are this week .. tony
I have to replace 2015 sonata eco rear passenger lock actuator. Do u think the procedure is the same? Great video. Nice to see reassembly.
Quite a lot of labor for that job!
First time yes, once you've done it before it's pretty fast
Ok, I'm glad you mentioned it, but you didn't show it or elaborate on it's function.
Black button on door handle?
I did show it working towards the end of the video. The car was locked and I pressed the black button on the door handle to unlock the car
@@themechanic6117 Yes! My bad.
This was super helpful. What if the issue is with the back doors and you aren't able to get the paneling off from the inside?
You have to force the panel off . No way around it. Even if you took it to the dealer... all they'll do is force the panel off even it it breaks. It's the only way to get the door open to fix it
They screwdriver my lock and took my handle. Looked inside for valuables. I'll have to see if I can find the parts and fix it. Not sure about the electrical connector, whether it fell inside. 2017 elantra
Good video!
Still trying to find a tutorial for how to open a car door that won't open from inside OR outside.
Trying to find a solution that doesn't require cutting out the panel to access the cables😭
Does this part work for a Santa fe
Hi how u take the door handle and lock off?? Having trouble
Hi. I hope you can help me :) Elantra 2016. Rear Passenger door. The door handle got broken and won't open. the handle doesn't spring back as well. I had it fixed, good thing the car wasn't ruined like you said because the door was shut . They were able to fix it but again the handle doesn't spring back. Until yesterday when it happened again and we shut the door and the outside and inside handles don't work. I was thinking of buying a replacement handle but the mechanic said that the problem may be the entire mechanism of the door lock. May I get your opinion on this? Thanks in advance
Awesome video but I have a side question. What resources do you use to find sensors on different engines you working on. I currently working on a 2009 Kia Sorento v6 and having hard time finding camshaft position sensor which this car has 2 sensors.
Well cam sensors are always going to be on the head of the engine so they're not too difficult to locate them. I usually try Google or CZcams when I can't find something
Near where I live, there is this place called the Herkimer Diamond Mines.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herkimer_diamond
There are deposits of them. Open to public. When I was younger- I belonged
to the GMSS Gem & Mineral Society of Syracuse (NY) and used to go mine
every year. I even made a walk through video of a show, on my channel;
YT muted it, cause background music. Children your Son's & Daughter's ages
go nuts over "mining" (breaking rocks) and finding treasures. Fun for all.
What is the first socket size??
What is the name of the part you are replacing and would you have the part number for a 2016 Hyundia gensesis?
Great video. My door works (opens and locks) with the key Fob on a 2015 Sonata limited. The issue I am having is the exterior door handle button does not work nor does the courtesy light lights up when key fob is close to open/lock door using button (intermittent issue works 1 out of 20 tries). My passenger side door works and recognizes the key fob, lights up and allows to open/lock the door.
Is my issue the exterior handle or actuator?
For a problem like that first make sure the battery in the key fob is good .next thing I'd suspect is the door handle
With all of Hyundai’s meet ideas they should’ve made something that works.
I has a 07 Altima in 2010 and the door wouldn't open from inside or out. Never fixed it. How would you have fixed that? You cant open door trim or anything
Something has to give and it's usually the door panel. In cases like that unfortunately you might have to destroy the door panel to get into the door and do what's necessary
My door latch actuator has seized up in the lock position. I can't get the door panel off because the door won't open.
I have a 2013 GLS the door handle will pull tight but it won't open from the outside the inside part will open I just want to make sure it's the same problem cuz I'm thinking about doing the same process you're doing
I'd take it apart to investigate first but it could be the same part. These have a high failure rate
What are you doing making vids when you have giant diamonds in your yard?!
I know right! I need to re think my life lol
Great video. I think I have the same issue but worse. I have a 2013 Santa Fe. I cannot get the door open at all. Neither the inside or outside handles work. Do you have recommendations on how to get the door open to begin the process you lined out? Thanks.
You'll have to pull the inside door panel off. Even if you break it. There's no other way in
That sucks. It was strange. The door worked fine the night before then the next day nothing worked. There’s got to be a way get it open without tearing up the panel. I’ll let you know if I figure something out. Thanks.
Lower the glass and pull the panel back from the center to get your hand in . See if the cable came loose from the handle. Even if you take it to the dealer, they may tell you they have to damage the inside panel to remove and get the door open
Should have put a part #. So u replaced exterior door handle assembly?
Thanks for the video. I used the video to fix it on a Elantra. After doing everything, the door still doesn’t open from outside. Before I would bang on the door few times and it would open but now it doesn’t open at all. Any suggestions?
Are you sure everything got connected properly? It's easy to forget something
@The mech a nic yep. It doesn't open the 1st time when the car is unlocked. I open it from the inside and after that I can open it from outside as long as I don't lock the car.
I have the same or similar problem as gtr-smokes: 2017 Hyundai Elantra... key fob and handle button will lock and unlock the car...but the outside drivers handle will not open the door. Once I open it from the inside, then I can open it from the outside over and over again...until I lock it. Then the whole process repeats -> if unlocked electronically door opens from the inside, but not from the outside (until you open it from the inside first). Could this be related to something mechanically broken in the actuator? I'd like your opinion please before I go ripping things apart and possibly buying unnecessary parts.
Do you remember what size the torx screws are for the side of the door?
I think I mentioned it in the video
Great vid! So my door actuator seem to work (doors lock and unlock) but I just can't open the door from the outside, I can from the inside, is this still a latch problem?
Make sure the cable that goes to the outside handle is still properly attached
@@themechanic6117 ya turns out it was the actuator. Your vid was really helpful although I went with an aftermarket one, it still worked but the main issue is the holes where the clips slide in seems slightly smaller so the fit is very tight and tough to remove. Most stuff you can figure out but sometimes there are ways to detach the actuator from the plastic molding that you have to know how or risk damaging or breaking the piece, for example at 6:20 where you detach the cable for the outside door handle with your fingers, isn't as simple on the older version where you need to slot in a door trim remover tool to pop it out.
I’m having the issue where I can’t open the door at all from inside or outside and I have the part to replace just can’t find a solution to get it open
Pull the door panel off from the inside of the car. Even if you break a few things. It's the only way .
If I open the drivers door with the inside latch and get out the door will keep reopening with the outdoor handle until I lock it with the fob or key. Then it won't reopen until I open it again inside. Is it still the door latch that is the problem?
My mom's car does the exact same thing. Only the back driver side door will unlock with the fob. Three of the 4 doors will open from the inside once she's gotten in. I believe this is a defect and there should be a recall to replace the locks and latches.
I've got a 2018 Hyundai Elantra SE and this is a very similar problem I'm having.
I'm having problems getting the door open at all right now. Also, I don't know where to get that door latch assembly. They don't carry it at my nearby auto store. Do I have to get it from a Hyundai Dealer?
Buy it online or dealer only for a part like this .
What is the name of the part that needs to be replaced?
Door lock actuator
Is it a different process for a 2013 sonota?
I really don't know , sorry.
Great video can you tell me the approximate cost of the OEM part
Honestly I can't remember. I just got the part number from the dealer (or online) and bought the oem part on ebay
@@themechanic6117 Thank you I found the part
I have the same situation but the does not open even from inside nor outside. How can i replace the latch then? Can anyone please help
Yeah I don’t see anyone answering that question
What’s the part you need to get?? I have this same problem on a 2017 Elantra
Pretty sure I showed the part in the video
@@themechanic6117 what’s it called? Lock assembly?
Lock actuator
@@themechanic6117 thank you
@doomzyy how did it go with your elantra
Hyundai is tedious when it comes to certain replacements. My wife has a 2006 Sonata that she has owned since new and I have underestimated several times the work need to replace some parts. Now I just pay someone to do the work on her car unless it's something less tedious and simple I can do lol
There are definitely some jobs that you just want to pay someone else to do lol
What happens if it dont open inside or out?
Pull the door panel off ... you may have to break the inside door panel
How long do you think this project took? I'm not sure if some stuff was edited out. Just wondering to see how long the dealership charges me for time.
I could see this taking about a hour but I don't know what a dealer charges... I'm sure it's expensive
@@themechanic6117 $471 for the part alone is the quote I got from the dealer.
That's crazy. I found the original part online for a quarter of that price. Follow the video and labor price is free 👍
Where did you purchase the door latch assembly?
Pretty sure I found it on ebay. Get the part number from the dealer then look for the part online cheaper
After i changed the actuator, the door became not closing unless i slam it hard 🥲. Any solution?
You did something wrong. Take it back apart
Saddened that you won't be making anymore CZcams videos. Why? because your daughter found some DIAMONDS!!!! lol
🤣 it was nice knowing you guys! I'll send post cards lol
Hi man 2013 sonota key fobs unlock and lock the door but it will only open from inside, could it be the door handle and how can yiu tell if its the handle and not the actuator?
Take it apart and investigate
OK will do thanks, curious how u can tell if its the door handle when it has a electrical connection to it any advice on that.
Both inside and outside handles on my 2010 broke at once! How do I open the door to replace them? Quite the conundrum.
From the inside pull back the door panel from the center to get to the cable. Stuff might break...
@@themechanic6117 I managed to get to the cable without breaking anything! Took the plastic surround off the handle and fit my screwdriver in and removed the handle's retaining screw.
Nice job
Mines just broke I don't think I could do all that work to fix it.
Wow! Got some clean clothes for a change!
Not a piece of junk? Until it catches fire.
Cheers
🤣🤣my clothes are broken in and they're comfortable lol
Will this work for 2013?? 😢
It should be similar
Getting mine replaced at Hyundai now... Both of my front doors stopped working around the same time, smh
That's sucks!
How much does it costs … just the rough idea if anybody can tell me
I found the part online for $80-$100 if I remember correctly
Thank you man
How much did you charge?
Can't remember. Plus I don't talk about prices online
It worked for me! But now when I Lock and then unlock using the key. The door does not open from outside. Once opened from the inside, then the outside latch starts working again i.e. I can open door from outside using the handle. Any solution for that?
Are you sure everything was assembled correctly?
@@themechanic6117 is it possible that the new mechanism also has some problem
Was it an original Hyundai part? So the outside door handle won't open the door?
@@themechanic6117 Strange but everything is working perfectly fine now. I did not do anything but it's working. Lol. Thanks for the Video though👍
Great to hear! 👍
Looks like I need a whole new car…ima a 3 step max type of girl 😣
😁👍
Hang on, why go the original part? The original parts are the ones failing prematurely. If only it could be replaced with a Toyota part, that'd fix it.
Because aftermarket parts are even worse. There are few times when a aftermarket part is better than oem. In this case, install a oem part
I have this same situation with my Hyundai sonata. Is it actually the door latch or door handle because I'm getting told it's the handle
Does it unlock with your key fob ?
@@themechanic6117 yes it does. And when I press the button on the handle it still works
If the key fob works and your button on the handle works then what's the problem?
Mybad let me say that again. So to unlock and lock the car that part works. But when it comes to opening the door that part only works from the inside. When I try to open the door on the outside it doesn't work
It could be the handle it could be the cable that connects to the handle or the actuator like in this video. Only way to find out is to take it apart and see what's wrong. For this car I had to take it all apart about a week before we ordered the part
Flowless
Spoke too soon. Once locked and unlocked it no longer worked from outside.
Yeah that seems like you have to change the same part I did
I opened door from inside and used a stick to flip the latch and it worked and opened by using the outside handle several times. But locking must change something inside to not allow the outside handle to open the door.
Wow John, For once your'e not working on a pos car.
Once in a while I get a nice one lol
@@themechanic6117 was that a hard one to do?
At first it seems hard but the second time around it's much easier
Seriously...all of this just to replace a broken door handle. Dumbest design ever.
It's not dumb design it's super smart it's just bad quality that's the stupid thing.
