- Safety Considerations
- Disconnect the battery before starting, especially if the truck has electronic locks or power accessories, to avoid electrical shorts or accidental activation.
- Wear safety gloves to protect your hands from sharp metal edges inside the door panel or on the handle assembly.
- Use proper tools to avoid damaging fasteners, stripping screws, or cracking plastic trim pieces.
- Support the door panel securely when removing or reinstalling to avoid strain on wiring or clips.
- Ensure secure attachment of the actuator rod or cable to the handle and latch to avoid accidental failure during use.
- Installation Instructions
- Open the door and remove the interior panel. Disconnect any electrical connectors if available.
- Locate and remove the old handle. Detach the actuating rod or cable that connects the handle to the latch.
- Install the new handle by aligning it with the cutout in the door. Feed the actuating rod or cable through and attach it to the handle’s inner lever arm.
- Bolt the handle securely using the original mounting points.
- Make sure the handle moves freely and engages the latch properly.
- Reassemble the door panel when installation is complete and reconnect the electrical components.
- When to Replace?
