Cheap Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Central Locking Motor

The W906 Sprinter ran from 2006 to 2018, and central locking motors within this generation are generally consistent in their mounting and connector arrangement, making cross-year swaps within the W906 a reasonable starting point. However, there were running production changes across this long generation, so confirm the exact part number from your donor vehicle against your registration with the breaker before buying. Never assume fitment without that check.

The W907 is a distinct generation introduced in 2018, and its door architecture, locking mechanism, and wiring connectors differ from the W906 (2006–2018), so these are not considered a straightforward interchange. Crossing the W906-to-W907 generation boundary is a real risk, and you should confirm compatibility with the breaker against both registrations before purchasing. Do not assume a part from the older generation will drop in.

For the Sprinter, trim level does not fundamentally change the central locking motor itself — the mechanical and electrical components within the door are driven by the vehicle's generation and door type rather than whether it's a base or higher-spec trim. You may find minor cosmetic differences in the surrounding door hardware sourced from different spec vehicles, but the motor itself should be the same within the same generation and door position. Confirm with the breaker using your registration to be sure.

Yes, this matters — the nearside (NS, passenger side) and offside (OS, driver side) door locking motors on a Sprinter can differ because the driver's door often incorporates additional functions such as the master lock switch or a different actuator design. Always specify to the breaker which door you need the motor for, and confirm it matches your side. Fitting the wrong side can mean the part physically won't align or the mechanism will operate in reverse.

The Sprinter platform underpins both panel van and minibus (including the Sprinter Coach/Tourer variants) bodystyles, but the door designs across these body types can differ significantly — particularly for sliding side doors versus front cab doors. A front cab door motor is more likely to be shared across bodystyles within the same generation than a sliding or rear door motor. Tell the breaker exactly which door and which bodystyle your vehicle is so they can match accordingly.

The W906 Sprinter received a facelift in 2013, bringing updates to the front end and some interior and electrical systems, so a 2014 vehicle is a post-facelift W906. Whether this facelift affected the central locking motor specification at your specific door position is not something that can be confirmed with certainty without checking part numbers, so route this to the breaker with your registration to verify. Quoting your VIN or registration gives the breaker the best chance of finding the right match.
