will slightly move sometimes, took panel off, everthing looks ok.
Lock will open with key. Thinnking this is the actuator,,,,Ive

Look to the wiring harness, crappy Hyandai quality control
in this area.

Okay I'll give it a look, the acutator sounds like its working, I hear
it click and move, just seems like it doesnt have the power to move
the lock,,,,,,thanks.....

"I've replaced the power window motors".... what does that mean? Did you
recently replace the motor and then have this problem? "Everything looks
ok"... what does that mean? Did you get the rods back in properly? Any
binding? Did you ensure that you have good grounds after your work?

You have a lot more information to provide if you really want any
meaningful help.

Okay I'll start over, I just picked up the car and noticed this
problem, I have replaced power window motors and regulators before on
other hyundais so I have a little mechanical know how, on this one all
I've done is taken the passenger door panel off, looked at the rods,
wires, and all looks normal. The actuator is moving, it can only
wiggle the lock, sometimes open it if I give it 5 minutes. The other
fella suggested to look at the relays which I assume is under the fuse
box,,,,,thanks

So again - what do you mean by normal? Are the rods in the proper places
and unencumbered in their travel?

wiggle the lock, sometimes open it if I give it 5 minutes.

Could be a couple of things. I'll repeat - check your grounds. The most
common problem in automotive electrical malfunctions is poor grounds.

Ok - look at the relays. Then look at the grounds.

This tells me the electrical part of the system is okay. Combine that
with the fact that you see nothing wrong inside the door, and you can
conclude that the problem is with the actuator itself. Hopefully, I'm
not too late with this news.

Is hyundaimech a new name for hyundaitech? I haven't seen hyundaitech
most lately.
