What is the part number for the Bay Door power lock actuator - '05 Patriot?

[Mike Shumack]

Does anyone know what the part number is for the Bay Door power lock actuator?  2005 Beaver Patriot Thunder.

I bought two TriMark actuators after reading what the part number is for the "Monacoer's part list document" - but they turned out to be different in the mounting. The holes are spaced correctly but the actuator arm is not in-line with the door lock mechanism. I was able to use them but they are not correct.

This is what I bought:

This what the factory actuator looks like. There's no manufacturer name or number on it

Mike, I just had BCS replace all my actuators. They used the type you just bought, as TriMark doesnt make the old style anymore. JUst have to fiddle with the linkage to make them work. They open and close with a mighty 'thump' and seem to work better than the old ones.  BCS also replaced the door lock keypad; never worked since we bought the coach in '15. Now we don't even use the key fob, that keypad is terrific! (Just don't forget to enter #9 after the door unlock code!)

Mike, Here is a photo of how BCS solved the problem with the new actuator. The mechanic used standoffs to align the actuator, pretty simple! Works well.

Yea, that's what I did to make it work.
Thanks

One thing the mechanic pointed out, was that he always uses a small ty-wrap to secure the one-way washer on the linkage, where it connects to the door latch. Zoom in on the photo and you can see the washer held fast with the black ty-wrap. On my original linkage, this washer had backed out so much that it allowed the actuator plunger to extend to the side, instead of moving the linkage and opening the latch. The ty-wrap prevents this.
