Fixing Soft Close
Softclose on two doors is not working but its making noises like it wants to.
When I'm home I'm going to spray some grease in to the hinges and see if that makes a difference. I'm having to strip the door cards down at some point, so I might as well try and fix my soft close. Has anyone got any recomendations on trying to fix the soft close? I've not stripped, clean or seen a soft close mech before.

Mine seems to have done the same on the two fronts, the mechanism sounds like it's working, but usually after you open the door.

Mines the drivers side.
The drivers door started making a noise in the last 2 weeks. The rear door is hardly ever opened but its started making a noise as well.

Stripped the door cards down to fit new window switches and had a look at the soft close.
Unplugging and plugging the units in causes them to kick in to life and do what they are meant to for one turn but they don't do it when connected. Plug them in they spin in, pulling the door in, then spin out to release the cable. But when connected to the door and simulating the door half catching they do nothing. Even when opening they dont spin but they work when plugged in. So is it not receiving a signal to say then door is open from a pin switch or a control unit?

Digging up another old thread to try and get some answers for another question.
Did you manage to fix your soft close issue or did you have to replace the motor? Are the motors the same on all doors? My drivers front and passenger rear aren't working
