The procedure to replace door manual release actuator inside left or right begins with moving the seat to its rear position and then taking out both floor-mount door release fastener sockets trim plugs. To gain access to the rear fastener for the door release you must first remove the pushpin near the front seat riser cover that faces the door. Next open the front side of the cover forward for access to both fasteners. Two fasteners need removal from both ends of the door release component and the actuator component's backside fasteners. The cable sheath should be unseated completely from its position within the housing while recording the end of the cable sheath in the actuator housing for future installation references. To install the door release insolate the assembly by rotating the actuator towards the rear position while directing the cable through the halves until the cable end detaches from its contact on the latch actuating lever. The door release actuator must be placed with its rear side facing forward during installation while connecting the cable end to the release actuating lever with subsequent forward rotation of the assembly while guiding the cable. Place the cable sheath inside the actuator before fixing together the two halves while the cable sheath end must slot into the molded fingers of the actuator housing. Fasteners should be installed onto the backside of the door release actuator before securing them to 2 N.m (18 lb in) then position the actuator onto the door sill for proper installation while securing both fasteners to the door release with 10 N.m (89 lb in). The last step includes mounting fastener trim plugs onto the door release actuator followed by securing the seat riser cover against its hole on the riser through a pushpin.

The Door Lock replacement process begins by putting both seat and backrest in forward and backward angles while disconnecting the battery and removing the door sill trim followed by the b-pillar trim panel. You must remove the mastic cover at the Door Lock access hole followed by unfastening the b-pillar mounted Door Lock fasteners before pulling out the lock through the body access hole. Pull the electrical connector lock pivot point open before taking the connector off from the Door Lock. To take off the lock cover remove fasteners from the back of the housing while unseating cable sheaths until the cover becomes free. First loosen the cable ends when they reach a quarter turn from the lock-actuating lever before taking out the lock from the vehicle. When installing the replacement lock you need to first remove its rear cover then fit the cable ends into the lock-actuating lever before making a quarter rotation. Place the cable sheath inside the lock cover molded recess before fastening screws that need to be tightened to 2 n.m (19 lb in). Connect the electrical connector before finishing the installation through locking the connector over the Door Lock mechanism. Secure this lock into the b-pillar body hole while matching up the fastener holes then pass the fasteners through the cover plate until they reach the b-pillar Door Lock before tightening screws to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Studying the installation book for proper procedures and replacing the mastic cover to the Door Lock access hole before reconnection of the battery and evaluation of lock manual and electrical functionality. The installation concludes with placing the b-pillar trim panel along with the door sill cover then putting the seat in its previous position.

Begin Door Lock replacement by moving the seat forward and tilting the seat back and then disconnecting the battery. Proceed with removing the door sill trim and b-pillar trim panel followed by the mastic cover from the Door Lock access hole. The fasteners from the b-pillar mounted Door Lock need removal to free the lock so it can be taken out through the body access hole. Detach the Door Lock connector by unlocking its electrical connector lock and putting the lock into the open position. The removal of fasteners securing the rear lock cover starts the process of unseating the cable sheath ends for complete lock cover removal. By turning the cable ends once you can unlock them from their position on the lock-actuating lever so the lock becomes removable from the vehicle. When installing replace the rear cover from the lock then attach the cable ends to the replacement lock by matching them to the actuating lever before rotating each end by one quarter. The rear release function must connect both to the lock upper lever and to the floor-mounted release cable on its lower lever. Insert the sheath of the cable inside its molded lock cover recess followed by fixing the lock cover with fasteners that require 2 n.m (19 lb in) torque. Mount the electrical connector by positioning the connector lock onto the Door Lock mechanism until it reaches the seated position. Place the lock inside the defined area on the b-pillar body then insert fasteners through the cover plate until they reach the Door Lock in the b-pillar which requires tightening screws to 10 n.m (89 lb in). After replacing the Door Lock access hole cover with new mastic you should reconnect the battery before checking the lock operation by hand and by electrical power. The final installation requires seating the seat back to its original position after adding the b-pillar trim panel as well as the door sill cover.

The first step to replace the Door Inside Manual Release Actuator begins with moving the seat to its rear position before removing both trim plugs from the fastener sockets of the floor-mounted door release. The assistance required to access the rear fastener of the door release comes from removing the pushpin from the front seat riser cover that leans forward due to its position near the floor mounted door release. Uninstall both door release fasteners in addition to the fasteners on the back of the door release actuator. Disassemble the two release halves from the housing and completely remove the cable sheath from its position inside the actuator housing for future installation reference. Swing the door release backward while you move the cable into position between the actuator halves and remove the cable end from hooking onto the latch actuating lever. To install the assembly properly position the door release actuator backward so you can attach its cable end to the actuating lever then place the assembly forward between actuator halves with cable sheath end in molded fingers of the housing. Place the cable sheath inside the actuator housing before uniting the actuator halves then fasten the screws to the opposite side of the door release actuator until tight enough at 2 N.m (18 lb in). Position the door release actuator onto the door sill before installing its fasteners through the door release while tightening them to 10 N.m (89 lb in). Both fastener trim plugs should be directed into the door release actuator before securing the pushpin into the hole in the riser through the seat riser cover.

The procedure to replace the Door Inside Manual Release Actuator starts by putting the seat in its rear position followed by removing both floor-mounted door release trim plugs from their fastener sockets. Start by removing the front seat riser cover pushpin at its position nearest to the door release. Then angle the cover forward to reach the rear fastener of the door release. The first step of replacing the Door Inside Manual Release Actuator starts with removing both fasteners situated on the door release and continuing to remove the fasteners located on the backside of the door release actuator. Disassemble the housing parts while keeping track of the cable sheath end position which will be needed for later reinstallation. To install the cable in the actuator halves, rotate the door release towards the back while simultaneously guiding the cable into position between the actuator halves. Then release the cable end from the latch actuating lever. To install mount the door release actuator with its back facing forward. Then attach the cable end to the release actuating lever before rotating the assembly in a forward direction with cable guidance. Place the cable sheath inside the actuator body before attaching the halves with the sheath positioned in the molded fingers of the actuator housing. The fasteners must be secured at 2 N.m (18 lb in) torque on the back face of the door release actuator and afterward attach it to the door sill while tightening the fasteners to 10 N.m (89 lb in). Fastener trim plugs need to be installed on the door release actuator before setting the seat riser cover into its correct slot while securing the pushpin.

Install both fastener trim plugs to the door release actuator before aligning the seat riser cover to the hole in the riser and fastening the pushpin.

Remove both fasteners from the door release and the fasteners from the backside of the door release actuator.
