This was, by far, the most clear video I found on how to do this repair and made it possible for me to do the repair. Many, many thanks to dial2fast. I ran into a few things I ran into that may make your repair easier: 1) I recommend putting a towel, rags, etc. inside the door frame whenever you are installing or removing bolts. I had a mounting bracket bolt go into the lock assembly and had to use a magnet to get it out. The small screw that holds the flip switch in place fell down somewhere in the assembly and was not visible or retrievable. If I had towels in place they would have fallen onto that instead of into the assembly. 2) When you reinstall the bracket, be careful that the rod that connects to the lock cylinder is not between the bracket and the door. It is easy for it to get into there. 3) I couldn't easily push the lock cylinder back in place. The grease was not an issue, the issue is that it is a tight fit between the mounting bracket and the door handle assembly. After being frustrated for about twenty minutes, I found a tip on another video that provided success. What worked for me was that I did not put the bolts in the mounting bracket. That gave me some flexibility/wiggle room The cylinder clicked right into place. Then I installed the bolts and the mounting plate.

This helped me a lot. Granted my process was a bit different cause I went to a pick and pull to get a handle. For instance when I was getting the door handle off of the juck car, when I finally got the handle away from the door, I didn't have to pop the pin out (because I wanted it as well). For that final removal step I merely had to unscrew it from the metal arm. When reinstalling I just had to screw it back on, put the handle back in the door, bracket, key cylinder, plugs, door panel, more plugs and done. Having done many door handles before, they never went this smooth. A lot of your techniques will translate over to many other cars. Overall I think this is the best video on the subject I've ever seen.

Excellent video. I was able to replace my door handle this morning and it only took me a little over an hour as a relatively inexperienced guy when it comes to car maintenance. Thank you!
@jaysonhadwick38668 ай бұрын
I didn't have one of those pic tools to remove the cylinder but once i was able to see where it was i was able to work a long thin flat head under it with some fiddling and popped it off... hope that helps anyone that's doing this. Other than that, yes this tutorial is absolutely perfect, no bs, no unnecessary talking just all the way in and all the way back out. Good stuff !!!

currently doing this. that final rod at 5:45 was a pain to remove. ended up breaking the plastic part on the door handle to free it. then removed that soft plastic that's stuck on the rod with pliers. Just finished doing this job. Video helped a lot. I messed up and installed the lock cylinder before putting on the bracket. Had to remove everything including the clip on the door handle. Follow exactly and you shouldn't have issues.

What did you do to get the lock cylinder to snap back in place? I noticed you wiggled it around a bit then the clip changed to you pushing it in like it’s nothing.
@dial2fast3 жыл бұрын
The installation of the lock cylinder is as shown in the video. I explained to leave the metal clip installed on the door handle 6:35. Then when you get to installing the lock cylinder, just put it straight in as shown at 7:41. That metal clip is spring loaded, so when you push the lock cylinder in, it will go in one way and will not come back out.

the lock actuator will only affect locking and unlocking. A broken door handle means even if its unlocked and you grab the handle the door still won't open.
