I replaced my door lock actuators myself after watching some YouTube videos. Total cost for parts was under $100. It was pretty straightforward!
That’s awesome! Maybe I can give it a shot too. Did you face any challenges?
It took a bit of elbow grease, but nothing too complicated if you’re patient! Just make sure to have the right tools handy.
I think if it keeps clicking, it might get damaging eventually. If DIY doesn’t work, don’t hesitate to reach out to a pro.

Honestly, my friend had the clicking noise, and it turned out to be a simple wiring issue. They just reconnected a loose wire, cost them nothing!
That’s encouraging! I’m definitely going to check the wiring before going for any big repairs. Thanks for the tip, Marcus!
For me, the clicking was just the sound of the locks engaging! But I almost freaked out before figuring it out. Sometimes, it’s not what you think! 
Ha! That’s a good perspective! We should appreciate the little sounds of technology working, right?
