I have a 2004 cargo Sprinter and my sliding side door electric lock does not function well. I often need to reach inside through the passenger side door and release the sliding side door locking mechanism from the inside. The electric locking mechanism has never failed to lock the door but it often does not unlock the door. I have removed the panel for inspection and did not see any obvious reason for failure. I lubricated it and it worked for a short time but none of the other electric locks have required lubrication to function properly. The solenoid is moving and when the door will not open from the outside just a small movement of the inside handle will release the lock so the latch will function from the outside.
Anyone have experience with this?
