'06 Tahoe rear door lock broken

[Groundhog66]

My rear door latch no longer locks, I've been told it's a faulty solenoid. Replacement cost about $325, is this a fairly common problem?

Mine is an '06 as well. I DO NOT have this problem, nor have I ever experienced it.

I'm not sure how common it is but I do know they can go bad. If you are somewhat mechanically inclined, I'd get buy the actuator and install it myself. Search around for best prices-

Apparently it's not at actuator that's bad, it's the solenoid that is mounted to some panel...and the whole piece needs to be replaced.

The solenoid that locks/unlocks the door, correct? If so, it can also be known as an actuator. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. Check the link I posted.

Talking about reardoors... Need some help on finding the correct english part name.
I need those two rods which helps push and hold the door open. The ones I have are pretty week and will not push the door all the way up.

Those should work fine. There are cheaper ones too-
