Steps
Release the trim and fasteners
Pry off the corner and handle trim, remove the door-pull and handle screws, then release the lower panel clips carefully. Disconnect the window-switch plugs using their locking tabs.
Lift away the door panel
Grip the panel near its lower edge and pull the clips free, then lift the panel up and away from the window channel. Disconnect latch cables and courtesy-light wiring before setting it down.
Reconnect the handle and wiring
Reconnect the latch cables and courtesy-light plug, then test the inside handle and lock. Align the panel along the window channel and press each retaining clip into place.
Reinstall trim and verify operation
Reconnect the switch harnesses, reinstall the door-pull and handle screws, and press the trim covers into place. Confirm the window, lock, courtesy light, and latch all work.
Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
