Door locks are of great importance in the design of a car. When closed, they act as a car security system. During operation, the doors are kept from opening spontaneously, which can lead to a collision between the opened door and passing traffic or an overtaking car, and in the worst situation, to the passenger falling out of the cabin. In modern cars, various additional devices are being developed to expand the range of action of the locking mechanisms. Such as central locking, which allows you to simultaneously open and close all locking devices when you turn the key in the driver's lock cylinder, and close all doors by pressing a button inside the cabin. Or so-called “child locks”, when a child cannot open the car from the inside. On the Russian market, such new products include silent door locks for the Samara and Samara 2 families, which include the VAZ 2114.
Trunk door
If the trunk opens with force, you need to loosen the lock on the trunk body, move the plate out a little, and check the result. If the result is obtained, the adjustment is completed and the bolts should be tightened until they stop. When the lock knocks during closing, you need to mark the lock tongue and the latch, check how much the mating parts are displaced.
Using the same mounting bolts, loosen the plate and move it to the right or left according to the measurement result. For normal operation of the VAZ 2109 trunk, the lock adjustment is considered complete if the lid opens easily and is in its place. If suddenly the trunk begins to open on bumps, you should check the condition of the lock tongue and the depth of its insertion into the latch.

How to make a castle with your own hands
The easiest way to make a silent lock yourself is to come up with a special coating for the latch pin on the machine body, which is the loop for the lock latch, because the greatest noise occurs when the latch goes behind the loop. To do this, you need half a meter of heat-shrinkable tubing, which can be bought at a radio parts store.
- Unscrew the pins from the fasteners that need to be upgraded.
- Cut the tube to the required size so that the thread remains free for tightening.
- Place the pipe on your finger and heat it with a hairdryer or lighter.
- Allow the tube to cool and settle on your finger, then put another tube on the already installed one, repeating the heating procedure.
- After the tube settles, trim the uneven ends.
- Install the improved pin into the retainer.
The silent loop is ready. After the homemade finger is installed, some problems may arise with closing the door, after all, the tubes are of abnormal thickness. Then the question arises - how to adjust the locks. This is also a fairly simple procedure that does not require special skills:
- the fastening on the lock retainer, which is attached to the body, is slightly weakened;
- the latch moves in the direction required for easy closing of the door. If the door sags when closing, the latch rises. If, on the contrary, the door rests and rises, you need to slightly lower the latch. In the same way, its position can be adjusted by moving the lock forward or backward.
Silent locks are a useful thing that save car owners nerves and increase the service life of door fasteners. However, in order for them to work well and for a long time, they need to be looked after and constantly monitored for the correct door adjustments.
Adjusting interior door locks
The front locks are designed to be locked from the outside using a key and from the inside using a pull rod. The device has an external face located on the door handle. The structure is closed both from the inside and from the outside. Installing a lock is more difficult than installing a lock on the back door. The rear actuator is connected by a rod to the door lock button and the handle for opening it. It does not have an external locking mechanism.
Tools and materials
When starting work, you must ensure that you have the necessary tools and materials.
During the work you will need:
- impact screwdriver;
- hand drill;
- flat head sander;
- felt-tip pen;
- cushioning material.
In this case, you should carefully read the visual video lesson of operation and adjustment techniques presented on the websites of car enthusiasts. Step-by-step instructions and advice from experienced repairmen will help solve the problem with the least amount of labor.
The peculiarities of the repair are associated with the difference in the design of the lock of the rear doors from the front ones, but the locking mechanism is the same and consists of a latch on the pillar and an actuator on the door, which should fit perfectly together. In this case, the door should close easily and tightly without distortions or gaps.
Front door adjustment
The front door locking device is more complex to install, since it comes with an internal and external locking device. A lock is mounted inside the casing, which can be locked from the inside of the cabin and an external device located on the handle. The cylindrical cylinder is used to open the interior with a flat key of the sulfide type lock. After installing the lock, it can only be adjusted by a latch or a heel located on the rack.
The latch is a structure for receiving the executive part of the lock, the tongue. Depending on how the position of the receiving channel is set, the opening force and the difficulty of locking the lock depend. The front door must be positioned so that the gap on all sides is uniform, there is no distortion when opening, and the door must move easily. All this will be done in a VAZ 2109 car by adjusting the door locks.
If the door closes tightly, the fixation of the heel must be loosened by half a turn of the screw securing the latch and slightly move the receiving chamber outward, slightly moving the plate. Once you are sure that the problem has been resolved, tighten the bolts.
The door does not close tightly and a gap is created between the body. On the contrary, you need to loosen the bolts and push the lock deeper into the structure. When closing, the canvas goes up; the adjustment will consist of lowering the latch down and then stabilizing it with pads made of waterproof fine sandpaper. The door can be lowered down to 2 mm if a gasket of this thickness is placed under the counter part.
Before you begin adjusting the lock with the response mechanism, you should fix its primary position by tracing the outline with a felt-tip pen. After completing the adjustment, tighten the three mounting bolts until tight.
Rear interior doors
The lock installed on the door does not have a key. The closing mechanism is designed on the same principle and consists of a latch and a tongue. However, if the door is replaced, its adjustment is carried out in the canopy areas. The existing two units with the upper one fastened to three powerful bolts, and the lower point to two, allow you to set the gaps and fix the alignment before adjusting the lock. In this case, the door can be raised or lowered, pushed into the cabin or taken out.
When carrying out these operations, you will need an impact screwdriver; it will not be possible to simply twist the fastener only by using a jerk and twist. You can see in detail how this operation is performed in the photo in the materials of the car repair website. Having completed the alignment, all fasteners should be screwed in completely and gaskets and fastener position clamps should be installed.
Once the door is centered, you may not have to adjust the lock using the heel. If necessary, work is carried out as when adjusting the front doors.

How to install silent locks on a VAZ 2114 yourself
On average, the price of silent locks on a VAZ 2114 is about 600 rubles. If you want to save that money, you can make them yourself using this simple and inexpensive method.
What you will need for this:
- Syringe.
- Engine oil.
- Adhesive insulation for windows.
- Hammer.
- Impact screwdriver.
- Silent bolts (you can make them yourself, or buy them at an auto parts store).
Step-by-step installation:
- Remove the lock from the door by unscrewing the fastening bolts. After you remove the lock, insert a pin with M8 thread instead of the old fastenings - then the fastenings will not go into the casing and you won’t have to disassemble it.
- Cover the axis of the rotating mechanism (from the inside of the lock) and the wall of the lock against which the bolt rests when unlocked with pieces of sealant.
- Fill a syringe with engine oil and lubricate the locking mechanism. Wipe off excess thoroughly with a dry cloth.
- Reinstall the lock using the silent bolts.
We purchase the necessary materials
To ensure that the doors of your car no longer close with a roar and grinding noise, we will install silent locks on it. To do this, we purchase the necessary kit in the amount of two pieces. Each box has two locks.
Well, the second set that we need is a central locking kit. The universal kit traditionally includes four motors, a control unit, all the necessary wires and several strips.
After purchasing the main components of the upcoming work, we prepare the necessary tools:
- Drill and various drills;
- Hammer;
- Screwdrivers, Phillips and hexagonal, screwdriver;
- Additional wires;
- Protective tubes for wiring;
- Well, and some other little things: a knife, glue, alcohol, etc.
We install silent locks
The first stage of the work is the installation of new and dismantling of old locks. To ensure that you do not have to remove the door trim, this process must be performed carefully and carefully.
To begin, unscrew the bolts one at a time so as not to drop the internal lock. In the same way, screw on the new silent ones in reverse order.
The second point is to replace the old bolt that holds your lock with a new one.
We apply this scheme to all remaining doors. Having completed the installation, we perform a check. If any problems arise, for example, the door does not close well, then try to push the lock deeper. Although, by choosing the option of silent locks without a “flag”, such situations should not arise.
Installing central locking
Continuing to modernize and improve your “swallow”, you may be interested in installing a central lock on the VAZ 2110. There is no need to argue about the advantages of such an option. Poking around with a key in a rusty, frozen lock is not a pleasant pleasure. And we must not forget about protection against theft. Therefore, we purchase the treasured box, in which we will find:
- 4 engines, one of which is installed on the driver's door;
- Control block;
- Wires, fuses and strips.
Central locking kit
Next, we collect the necessary tools: screwdrivers, drill, electrical tape, etc.
We remove all the elements that interfere with us, such as trim and panels, and mainly decide where we will install the control unit. The driver's door, its lower left corner, is rightfully considered the best place. This choice of location will allow you to subsequently install window lifters or other systems without any problems.
To install the engines, we need special holes in the door. If there are none, then we make them using a drill. And we move on to installing the engines.
Central locking installation process
Let’s not forget that each of them has 2 outputs. And only one - 4. It is located on the driver's door. After successful installation, you need to stretch the wiring. It should not be carried out where it may be exposed to moisture or other influences. It is advisable to protect the wiring, for example, with a corrugated tube.
After the installation of the VAZ 2110 central locking is completed, check the entire system. Now the central locking is controlled using the key fob that was included in the kit. If your version did not have it, then control occurs when you turn the driver's door key. In the future, if you wish, you can install a special control button on the dashboard.
Design of conventional and silent locks
Before moving on to silent locks, let's figure out how regular ones work.
A standard door lock for a VAZ 2114 consists of the following components:
- Inner housing (main locking mechanism). It houses a rotary unit - a movable structural element that unlocks the door (acts as a kind of deadbolt). Associated with it is a button on the door on the inside of the cabin, which locks it.
- Larva. It connects to the rotary assembly and always has a unique design that matches the specific key. The turning unit moves and opens the door after a suitable key is placed in the cylinder.
- Rods for controlling door handles. They are connected directly to the lock body.
- In new models of door locks, a gear motor is associated with the locking process, which activates the alarm.
- A lock retainer that provides a lock for a door lock. It is attached to the car body.
The importance of car door locks
Door locks in modern cars are a very important mechanism that ensures the safety of the driver and passengers. While driving, they reliably protect the door from accidental opening, preventing a collision with oncoming traffic and eliminating the possibility of a person falling out of the cabin. In addition, the door lock acts as a simple and reliable security system for the car.
New machines use a variety of additional devices that expand the capabilities of the locking mechanisms. These include, for example, central locking, which allows you to open or close all the doors in the car at once by turning the key in the driver's door or using a button inside the cabin. Also in the last couple of years, child-proof locks have become common, which will prevent a child from opening the car while driving.
Door opening method
If the VAZ-2109 door does not open from any side, then the cause of the breakdown is difficult to determine, since there is absolutely no access to the lock mechanism.
A somewhat simplified version of the breakdown occurs when the door does not slam shut completely and gets stuck in that position. Then it is possible to reach the latch from the outside with a sharp object.
To open a jammed door, you must first perform the following steps:
- When the sash is not completely slammed, try to get to the locking device using a steel flat ruler. It may be possible to open it in a similar way to conventional door locks with a latch.
- If the door is completely closed, try to move it to the slightly open position to gain access to the lock. To do this, try pressing the inside and outside handles together or alternately, while simultaneously pushing the door from the inside.
- Try opening the back door with a helper, who will press and release it to get it into position while you try to open the lock.
When simple means do not produce results, the door will have to be opened from inside the cabin, which will require removing its trim.
In practice, this is not easy to do, because the casing is pressed by the sash and it is difficult to pull it out without damage. But there is still no other way out: it is better to damage the inner panel than to mutilate the door itself.
To dismantle the decorative panel, you need to unscrew the armrest handle with a screwdriver, and then the storage shelf located at the bottom of the door card. Then the button that secures the lock from above is unscrewed and removed. Lastly, the window lifter handle and the opening handle frame are removed. Now you need to carefully separate the lining from the body using a pair of flathead screwdrivers and another suitable tool. You may be able to remove the trim without visible damage.
When the decorative panel is removed, access to the lock mechanism from the inside opens, although getting to it is inconvenient. Immediately check whether the rod running from the handle to the lock has fallen off. This is a fairly common malfunction that can be fixed with little effort. Put the rod in place and open the door.
If there are no visible reasons for the breakdown, simply try to open the door from the inside by working on the mechanism with various tools. If necessary, enlist the services of an assistant who will press or pull the door from the outside. Experience shows that such procedures for opening jammed doors can take a lot of time, so you will have to be patient.
Adjusting the mechanism
Having installed silent locks-2107 on a car, in order to fully use all the advantages of the mechanisms, you need to configure them correctly. Adjustment is carried out by moving the latch fixing bolt. First you need to let him go a little and close the door. It must fall into place
Then carefully open the door, being careful not to move the bolt. Next, you need to check the quality of the door latch.
If it is not completely satisfactory, then you need to continue tuning. By releasing the bolt and moving it, it is necessary to achieve smooth operation of the mechanism. The door should close with minimal physical impact on it. By repeating the adjustment operation on all doors, you can enjoy the perfect operation of your car's locks.
Door adjustment VAZ-2109AutoRemka – Car repair
On a VAZ-2109 car, and not only on this model, one of the necessary procedures is door adjustment. Each car owner should be able to cope with this process independently, without resorting to the services of a car service. Incorrect closing and opening of car doors may be due to the fact that the car was involved in an accident. In some cases, after serious accidents, one adjustment is not enough. When it is necessary to replace faulty doors, a competent approach is very important, since new body elements do not always “fit” without problems - they need to be adjusted.
Tools
In order to adjust the fit of the doors in the VAZ-2109 you will need only 2 tools - a hammer and a screwdriver.
Front doors
You can set them in the correct position by changing the location of the latch. You can do this in the following way:
- Before you begin making adjustments, you should note the original location of the clamp. This is best done with a marker.
- If the closing movement of the door is too tight, you need to loosen the clamp, move it a few millimeters outward and then tighten the fastening bolts.
- In case of a loose fit, the latch, on the contrary, should be “recessed” a little.
- When the door moves vertically, depending on whether it sags or is above the level, we adjust the lock in accordance with the problem. That is, if the door has sagged, we pull the latch up, and if there is a gap at the threshold, we move the latch a little up.
Tip: When performing work on adjusting the door, be careful that it does not sink or protrude, but is exactly level with the car body.
Rear doors
If the rear doors of the VAZ-2109 are loose, the problem can be solved as follows:
The hinges that hold the rear door of the car must be loosened and then, with it in the correct position, the door fasteners must be tightened.
Recommendation: In order to accurately determine how much the rear door hinge has shifted during the adjustment process, before starting work, just as in the case of adjusting the front doors, outline the brackets along the contour with a marker.
You can check how much the door has sagged like this: open the car door slightly and apply a gradually increasing load on it from 0 to 100 kg and back.
Adjusting the hood position
In order to adjust the hood cover, you must perform the following steps:
- Loosen the bolts that secure the iron roof to the hinges.
- Place the hood in the desired position (it is better to do this with three people).
- Tighten the hinges using the required wrench head.
If closing the lid does not go well, you need to unscrew the pin, move it to the desired position, fix it with a key and make sure it works correctly
Luggage compartment of VAZ-2109
To solve the problem with closing the fifth door of the Nine, you will have to adjust the lock. You can do it this way:
- Using a marker, outline the boundaries of the original location of the castle as accurately as possible.
- Move the latch itself to the desired position.
- Using a key of the required size, tighten the bolts securing the lock and check the functionality of the lock. If it works well, the bolts can be tightened all the way.
Installation of "quiet" locks
Unfortunately, the locks installed by the manufacturer produce not very pleasant metallic sounds during the operation of the car. If you don’t like such a loud mechanism, it can be replaced with a silent one. Today you can purchase “quiet” locks at any auto store or market. The choice of these new generation mechanisms is truly very wide - there are silent locks of domestic and foreign production. We recommend choosing Russian-made locks.
The replacement process is as follows:
- Take with you a good impact screwdriver, maybe even a Soviet-era one (you'll have to be patient and strong, since the bolts are screwed in very tightly).
- After removing one bolt, insert a pin or spoke into the hole to prevent the inside of the lock from falling.
- The old lock must be removed and a new, silent mechanism purchased in advance installed in its place.
- After tightening the bolts a little, you should make sure that everything works perfectly.
- Using the same power screwdriver, tighten the mounting bolts as tightly as possible.
Thus, by following the above steps, you can save money and gain invaluable experience in fixing your car. Savings are no less important, because if you do the work yourself, the only cost will be the purchase of new components.

Features of installing silent on VAZ 2105, 2106, 2107
One important feature should be taken into account when installing silent locks on “classic” locks. After installing the lock, the lever that is responsible for opening the lock is directed in the other direction, i.e. it must be lowered to open the lock, unlike the factory lock, where the lever had to be raised. This entails modifying the standard door opening handles or installing the euro handle upside down. An additional metal flag must be installed on the internal mechanism of the handle of the VAZ 2105 and 2106, to which the rod will be attached, so that when the handle is opened, the flag presses down.
Additionally, a flag is made that will push the rod down
The flag is installed on the handle on the side that is closest to the lock.
The flag is bolted into a pre-drilled, tapped hole
When starting work, you should be guided by the principle “Measure twice, cut once”; here it will come in handy more than ever. Having done everything efficiently, you will get a good result. Now you don’t have to loudly slam the door, sometimes several times. New locks will ensure quiet and easy closing of the door, which will be especially noted by owners of foreign cars who enter the interior of your car. Despite the fact that the process of installing silent locks on a car is very painstaking, requiring both time and material costs, the result will please you for a very long time.
Characteristics of using silent door locks for the Lada Priora vehicle:
- reduction of wear of rubbing metal surfaces;
- tight closure;
- compliance with factory standards and tolerances;
- shock-absorbing effect of the plastic coating of the latch;
- reducing the impact of the latch spring;
- luxury style;
- increased sense of security.
The impact sound of the latch during the closing of the door affects the emotional state of the car owner and auditory receptors. Therefore, installing silent locks on a Priora car is the most effective way to improve the driver’s mood by simply reducing the shock impact when the door latch is activated.

Possible problems
Sometimes, after installing a new lock on a VAZ 2109, the door may not close. The reason is due to errors made during assembly. Most often, people forget to put on the lock rod. In this situation, the lock simply will not open. Remove the lock and install the rod in place.
The lock may also need to be adjusted. This is done using a latch. It is loosened and the lock is moved in the desired direction, achieving optimal performance. Sometimes you have to lengthen or shorten the pull. Your task is to choose its length most optimally.
. If all stages of the work are carried out carefully and correctly, then you will not experience any difficulties. Replacing the door lock cylinder on a VAZ 2109 in this case will happen quite quickly. Once you have done this work, you will be able to repeat it much faster. The best option is to install new parts. Otherwise, you will soon have to disassemble the door again.

It is important to take your time so that the hole for the screw is drilled accurately.
- Using an “8.5” drill, drill the front wall of the rack, and use a tap to divide the threads into “10” (step “1”). In this case, the removed screw will prevent the door from closing. This can be eliminated by deepening the hole using a socket and hammer.
- Make a hole with a diameter of 10.5-11 millimeters in the front rack, 8.5-9 millimeters in the second, cut a thread, screw the screw into the rack.
- Try closing the door. It may need adjustment.
- Then you can install the lock drives and connect the handles.
First you need to dismantle the external handle and make a plate that acts as a lever (as in the photo). It should almost touch the windshield, but not rest against it. If you do something wrong, the mechanism will not work.
- After making the plate, you need to assemble the handle and install it in place.
- Shorten the side handle drive rod from the used lock to the required length. Bend the tip of one side at an angle of 90 degrees, and make the other in the shape of a ring (as shown in the photo). Put everything back in place and check.
REPLACING THE LOCK CIRCUIT OR THE CONTACT GROUP
Replacing the VAZ 2109 lock cylinders requires the following tools:
- New cylinder complete with keys
- Thin clock screwdriver
- Phillips screwdriver
- Fine drill
- Chisels
- Hammer
- Pliers
In the event of any breakdown, it is not necessary to replace the entire lock; if the cause of the malfunction lies in replaceable parts, then a partial repair of the lock is performed and replacing the lock cylinders on the VAZ 2109 makes sense when the key stops rotating freely in the keyhole. Another option for partial repair is to replace the contact group; for this, a minimum of tools and a little understanding of the device are enough.
Our instructions will help you understand the device:
- Nothing and no one forbids you to change the entire lock every time, and even go to a service station if you are satisfied with the price
- After removing the casing, access to the switch lock opens
- The lock cylinder can, in principle, be removed at this stage
- Therefore, we pull out the side pin that holds it in the lock
- This can be easily done with a thin screwdriver (clockwise) while tapping it with a small hammer
- If the pin cannot be pulled out in this way, then try to drill out the cylinder carefully using a thin drill
- If it is more convenient for you to remove it first, remove the ignition switch before proceeding to replace the cylinder, to do this you need to unscrew the bolts securing the ignition switch to the steering column
- This must be done using a hammer and chisel, as these bolts have sheared heads.
- Use a chisel to loosen them slightly, and then unscrew them with pliers, as in the photo below
Loosen the bolts securing the lock to the steering column
- Now we remove the bracket and the lock itself from the column, be sure to disconnect its electrical connector
- We unscrew the screw securing the ignition relay and remove it from under the panel
- Disconnect the connector
- Disconnect the “mass” wire
- Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the screw
- Then release the latch and remove the cover, then the contact group
- So we pulled the switch
- We remove the cylinder with our own hands and the ignition switch, as already described above
- We are replacing it
- We check the operation of the lock with a new cylinder installed, to do this we turn the ignition key
- After installation, do not forget to check the correct operation of the locking mechanism, our steering shaft
- When the mechanism does not work when turning the steering wheel fully, you need to adjust the location of the lock on the steering column
- Only after completing the adjustment of the location and checking the functionality of our locking mechanism, you can tighten the bolts until the heads come off completely, use a “10” spanner for this purpose
Refinement of the castle
Silent lock VAZ 2109
It turns out that a silent lock can be made even quieter. As you know, any design can be improved. This castle is no exception in this regard.
The first option for improving the silent lock
To complete this work you will need the following tools and components:
- Screwdriver.
- Good glue, Moment might also work.
- Sharp knife.
- Seal.
- Litol.
Let's get started:
- We are dismantling the castle.
- A spring is pulled out of the lock.
- Then you need to cut out a piece of the seal and glue it inside the silent lock.
- We're putting everything back together.
Second revision option
So:
- You will need to disassemble the door lock.
- Now let's soften the blow when snapping.
- Degrease the surface with alcohol.
- We cut out a strip of suitable width from the damping material.
- We insert it and glue it, pressing it from the inside with a screwdriver.
- We cut off the excess material with a blade.
Adjusting interior door locks
The front locks are designed to be locked from the outside using a key and from the inside using a pull rod. The device has an external face located on the door handle. The structure is closed both from the inside and from the outside. Installing a lock is more difficult than installing a lock on the back door. The rear actuator is connected by a rod to the door lock button and the handle for opening it. It does not have an external locking mechanism.
Tools and materials
When starting work, you must ensure that you have the necessary tools and materials.
During the work you will need:
- impact screwdriver;
- hand drill;
- flat head sander;
- felt-tip pen;
- cushioning material.
In this case, you should carefully read the visual video lesson of operation and adjustment techniques presented on the websites of car enthusiasts. Step-by-step instructions and advice from experienced repairmen will help solve the problem with the least amount of labor.
The peculiarities of the repair are associated with the difference in the design of the lock of the rear doors from the front ones, but the locking mechanism is the same and consists of a latch on the pillar and an actuator on the door, which should fit perfectly together. In this case, the door should close easily and tightly without distortions or gaps.
Front door adjustment
The front door locking device is more complex to install, since it comes with an internal and external locking device. A lock is mounted inside the casing, which can be locked from the inside of the cabin and an external device located on the handle. The cylindrical cylinder is used to open the interior with a flat key of the sulfide type lock. After installing the lock, it can only be adjusted by a latch or a heel located on the rack.
The latch is a structure for receiving the executive part of the lock, the tongue. Depending on how the position of the receiving channel is set, the opening force and the difficulty of locking the lock depend. The front door must be positioned so that the gap on all sides is uniform, there is no distortion when opening, and the door must move easily. All this will be done in a VAZ 2109 car by adjusting the door locks.
If the door closes tightly, the fixation of the heel must be loosened by half a turn of the screw securing the latch and slightly move the receiving chamber outward, slightly moving the plate. Once you are sure that the problem has been resolved, tighten the bolts.
The door does not close tightly and a gap is created between the body. On the contrary, you need to loosen the bolts and push the lock deeper into the structure. When closing, the canvas goes up; the adjustment will consist of lowering the latch down and then stabilizing it with pads made of waterproof fine sandpaper. The door can be lowered down to 2 mm if a gasket of this thickness is placed under the counter part.
Before you begin adjusting the lock with the response mechanism, you should fix its primary position by tracing the outline with a felt-tip pen. After completing the adjustment, tighten the three mounting bolts until tight.
Rear interior doors
The lock installed on the door does not have a key. The closing mechanism is designed on the same principle and consists of a latch and a tongue. However, if the door is replaced, its adjustment is carried out in the canopy areas. The existing two units with the upper one fastened to three powerful bolts, and the lower point to two, allow you to set the gaps and fix the alignment before adjusting the lock. In this case, the door can be raised or lowered, pushed into the cabin or taken out.
When carrying out these operations, you will need an impact screwdriver; it will not be possible to simply twist the fastener only by using a jerk and twist. You can see in detail how this operation is performed in the photo in the materials of the car repair website. Having completed the alignment, all fasteners should be screwed in completely and gaskets and fastener position clamps should be installed.
Once the door is centered, you may not have to adjust the lock using the heel. If necessary, work is carried out as when adjusting the front doors.

How to replace a lock
The design of the locks on the front and rear doors of the car is fundamentally the same, the difference lies in the installation of the lock switch cylinders on the external handles on the front doors. Instructions on how to replace the front door lock are presented below:
- The lower seal is pressed out, and three spring clips are removed from above to secure the protective film and one from below.
- The protective film is removed from the door.
- Inside the lock, the lock switch and external handle rods are disconnected.
Disconnection points for switch rods
Tip: During assembly, sealant was applied to the threads of the screws, so when twisting, you need to use an impact screwdriver.
- The outside door lock is removed.
- Unscrew the two screws securing the internal handle of the device.
- The handle is pushed inside the door.
- The internal lock and handle are pulled out of the doors, as shown in the photo.
The handle and lock are removed from the door
- The rubber holder is removed from the end of the rod.
- The handle is removed from the rod. In this case, it needs to be cranked.
- The locking bracket is detached from the lever pin.
- The rod of the internal handle is disconnected from the internal lock lever.
- The plastic holder is rotated and the end of the rod is removed from the lever to lock the device.
- Unscrew the two nuts securing the outer handle of the lock.
- The handle is removable.
- The plastic rod end is removed from the door lock cylinder and removed.
- The locking spring is removed. To do this, its ends are removed from the slots on the lock handle and cylinder.
Removing the retaining spring
- A key is inserted into the lock cylinder and the part is removed from the handle.
- Repairs and replacement of faulty elements are carried out, or a new lock is installed.
- Assembly of the unit occurs in the reverse order.
- The lock can be adjusted if necessary. To do this, loosen the screws and move the latch:
- outward, when the door is tightly closed;
- inward, if the door is not closed tightly;
- down if the door is raised when closing.
After adjusting the device, tighten the screws.
Tip: If you need to remove the retainer, you must first trace its outline on the body pillar. This will help maintain the door lock adjustment during installation.
How the door locks are removed on a VAZ 2109 car can be clearly seen in the video.
How to install a silent lock on the door of a VAZ 2109 car
Very often you can hear an unpleasant metallic clang when closing the doors of a VAZ 2109, especially in older models. This is due to the fact that the lock is attached to the outside of the door and when closing it comes into contact with the metal parts of the body and creates a characteristic sound. Manufacturers are now producing silent locks. They are sold in pairs, left and right, their price is reasonable. If the door lock on a VAZ 2109 car is jammed, it is better to immediately replace it with a silent one. To do this you need:
Unscrew the bolts holding the old lock on the car door.
Unscrewing the fixing bolts of the old lock
- The pin is screwed into place of the unscrewed bolt, otherwise the inside of the lock may fall inside the door.
- The old lock is removed and a silent one is installed.
- The bolts are tightened with maximum force. Tighten using an impact screwdriver.
- You can also install locking pins or silent bolts.
Installation of silent bolts
The installation operation ends with adjusting the locks. In this case, the position of the latch changes due to large holes in the rack. For this:
- The contours of the latch are outlined on the stand.
- When opening the doors tightly, you need to loosen the screws holding the latch, it moves outward and the screws are tightened.
- If the door does not close tightly, the latch must be moved inward.
- If the door lowers when closing, the latch must be raised and lowered when the door is raised.
Tip: In order not to disturb the adjustment of the clamp, you need to install a spacer made of waterproof sandpaper under it. Using the same spacers under the clamp, you can adjust the distance between the clamp and the stand. This is necessary so that the locking pin does not touch the cover of the external lock.
Installing a silent lock guarantees the car owner the absence of ringing and clanging.
Replacement process
Silent door lock VAZ 2109
First, let's arm ourselves with the necessary tools:
- An impact screwdriver that will allow you to unscrew and tighten the bolts (they are very firmly fixed and a simple screwdriver would be out of place here).
- A ratchet wrench with a suitable bit. We will need this tool for a kind of leverage.
- We unscrew the bolt, and in its place we put a pin, which will keep the old lock from falling inside the vase door.
- We dismantle the old castle.
- We install a silent lock in this place.
How to replace the ignition switch, check the contact group and replace it on a VAZ 2108-VAZ 21099?
Replacing the ignition switch:
Removal: 1) Starting with “The battery is a rechargeable battery,” unscrew the nut that holds the “-” terminal on the battery and then remove the terminal. (How to remove the negative terminal from the battery, see the article about “Replacing the battery on a VAZ”, in the “first” paragraph)
2) Then remove the steering column cover and both steering column switches. (How to remove the casing and both switches, see the article: “Replacing under-steering switches”)
Further, for clarity, the operation will be shown with the steering wheel removed, but you can still remove the ignition switch without removing the steering wheel.
3) Next, insert if the lock allows it, then insert the ignition key into it and put it in position “0”.
Note! The key must be installed in this position only to disable the anti-theft device!
4) Now remove the four bolts that secure the ignition switch. If you have these bolts with a cut off head, then knock them down with a hammer and chisel
(Be sure to read the “Important!” paragraph)
Note! If that doesn’t work, then try drilling out all four bolts, but just do it carefully without damaging anything!
5) Once the bolts are loosened, use pliers to remove them from the hole.
6) Next, remove the bracket on the left side, and the ignition switch on the right.
7) Now disconnect the wire block from the electrical connector.
And finally, crawl under the dashboard, and there, disconnect the connector going from the ignition switch to the relay.
Installation: Installation of a new lock is carried out in the reverse order of removal.
Checking the contacts of the wire block:
1) First, remove the lock from the car using the text above.
2) Next, using an “Ohmmeter” or a “Multi-meter” with the “Ohmmeter” function enabled on it, connect its leads to the electrical connector and then look at the readings of the device.
Note! The device should clearly display “0”; otherwise, replace the contact group!
Replacing the contact group:
1) First, on the removed ignition switch, use a screwdriver to unscrew the screw that secures the ignition switch cover.
2) Then use a screwdriver to press out the two plastic latches securing the lock cover.
3) Then remove the cover.
4) And finally, remove the contact group from the ignition switch.
Note! Installation of the contact group is carried out in the reverse order!
Important! Not on all cars of the Samara family the ignition switch is attached to the steering column with four bolts; on some cars it is attached only with two bolts and on top it is secured with a hook indicated by a red arrow!
Additional video material: Below we have prepared a video related to replacing the ignition switch on cars of the Samara family.
Installation of new mechanisms
You can install a silent lock on a VAZ-2107 in the reverse order of the disassembly process with some changes. The new mechanism is connected to the drive system in the same way, with the exception of one part. The rod pusher is added to the rod of the outer door opening handle. Before installing it, the rod itself is disconnected, this part is attached to it, then everything is mounted in place. The handle is placed in its original position and secured with two nuts. Having snapped all the rods of its drive onto the new lock, install the mechanism in its place. Then it is fixed with bolts. The window lifter guide is also screwed on.
Causes of lock failures on VAZ 2109
- There may be several such reasons. Here is a “rating” of the most common reasons for replacing a lock.
- “Downfall” of the latch connecting the door lock to the rod that connects it to the central lock.
- Lost key.
- Damage to the locking mechanism itself - the cylinder in the car. On the VAZ 21093, the front door lock is designed in such a way that it is almost impossible to repair them. That is, if a lock cylinder breaks, it is better to immediately replace it with a new one. Thus, you will save time and your nerves. Moreover, its price is quite reasonable.
- Wire refraction.
Maintenance of silent locks
Silent locking mechanisms do not require any special service. They must be lubricated before installation for best performance. It is advisable to carry out the treatment with special compounds for locks, of which there are now a great variety. Subsequently, it is advisable to periodically lubricate the mechanism.
Over time, you may need to make minor adjustments to the locks. Adjusting the door closing is not a complicated process. The progress of its implementation is described later in the article. The operation of the locks is so precise that there is no need to waste time and effort on servicing and repairing them during operation. Installing silent locking mechanisms on a car allows you to get wonderful results and not have to think about carrying out any work related to the service throughout the entire period of their use.
