Default Door lock

I have a AUIII where the rear passenger door will not lock. From reading like problems it seems I will need to replace the actuator (BA superseded model) as it blurrs away unable to lock the door. Any cheap Melb suppliers?
I have removed the panel and the 3 lock screws but still unable to remove the actuator in order to try and bench test and check why it appears stuck? The actuator appears to be held firm, unable to get a good look into the door does any one know what silly thing I may have missed?

Great reading the responses!

There is 2 white plastic clips joined up to the actuators loom (wiring) that are clipped onto the inside door panel just under the actuator, they might be holding it in there still. Apart from that and the 3 screws , also be sure to unclip the wire bar from the actuator that connects to the outer door handle. Thats about all that holds them in. gl

Oh actually, with the rear doors you might also have to disconnect or remove the child safety locks ? , they might be/probably are connected to the actuator. I'm not sure though as i haven't removed a rear door actuator. Cheers.
