The starting point to install a new rear Door Lock demands first removing the door trim panel then the door water deflector. The replacement process starts by separating the inside Door Handle and completely detaching every rod from the lock assembly. Completely disconnect the Door Lock Actuator electrical connector and afterward use a screwdriver to uninstall the Door Lock screws to let the Door Lock free itself from the vehicle frame. Place the new Door Lock into position before fastening it with the Door Lock screws until they achieve a 8 n.m (71 lb in) torque setting. The installation process requires reattachment of Door Lock Actuator electrical connector after which you can reinstall all rods to the lock assembly and replace the inside Door Handle. You should reinstall the door water deflector followed by the door trim panel in its correct position.

Before replacing the front Door Lock users should deactivate their sir system when the vehicle contains the sir side impact system.

Take out the front Door Lock from the door by disconnecting its electrical connectors then removing the lock screws. The next step includes taking out front Door Lock Actuator screws while separating the actuator from its position on the Door Lock. Mount the front Door Lock Actuator onto the Door Lock after which you should fasten it using the appropriate actuator screws. Secure the front Door Lock along with its screws while reconnecting electric wires to the actuator before reattaching every rod to the lock. Place the front door inside handle rod in its install location and also install the inflatable restraint side impact sensor mounting plate when required. The last step includes reinstalling the front door water deflector as well as the trim panel and turning on the sir system provided that it was disabled.

You should install the new Door Lock actuator on the Door Lock while making sure actuator screws achieve a torque value of 3 n.m (27 lb in). Secure the Door Lock by using screws which need tightening to reach 8 n.m (71 lb in). Complete the installation by reattaching Door Lock actuator electrical connector and reinstalling inside Door Handle and door water deflector. Reinstall door trim panel as the last step.
