Hey folks, my issue is that when i try to lock the car, everything works but the passenger side front door doesn't activate enough! i have dismantled everything in the door and no matter what it just doesn't seem to move enough! of course i can do it manually from inside, but even from the outside using the key on the passenger door i cannot make it lock!!!!
I did not have this issue before car was painted, could i have possibly put the lock cam on wrong?? i have tried flipping it but it seems to put rods out of reach of holes!
any help greatly appreciated!!!!

The lock solenoid itself is adjustable fore-aft....which may be of some help in fixing the problem but I can't imagine that this would have been tampered with in the process of painting the car.
I wonder if there's a fault with the solenoid itself ? Some sort of mechanical issue where it is restricting full movement? Stuck half way or something?
