Falcon Door latch

Had a problem with the Falcon door recently. Refuse to lock itself. Lead to the warning message as the door can report its status. Calibration failed 4 times out of 5.

Tried to resolve it with Tesla, and was quoted £550 for the fix (out of guarantee).

Checked the service manual at service.tesla.com and can't find any complications to remove and replace.

Found a used one on eBay for £95. Took me only an hour to replace the latch and cinch. When checked the lock found traces of water regress on contacts. I think this leads to malfunction.

Appreciate saving the difference :)
