2002 Cadillac DeVille Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the front door lock switch on 2002 Cadillac DeVille?

  A: You should start the front door power lock switch installation by inserting a flat bladed tool under the rear edge of the front door switch plate but ensure full disengagement of the retainer clip to protect the switch plate. You should apply firm pressure to the tool against the switch plate until the retainer disengages. Then lift the plate from the door trim panel by its rear section. First detach the electrical cables followed by separating the correct switch from the plate by carefully using a small flat bladed tool to release both side snap walls. When installing the switch you need to first put it inside the switch plate before attaching electrical connectors and lastly reinsert the switch plate to its original position in the door trim panel. Press the switch plate so its front section attaches to the door panel and apply even pressure to enable the retainer mechanism.
