• Q: How to replace the front RH Power Window Switch on 2008 Cadillac XLR?

  A: Start the replacement of the right side front side door window switch by placing the Ignition Switch into the off position. Start the process by removing the panel on the door. You need to remove the door's upper trim following the removal of its back retainer screws. Then you should take off the upper trim from the door. Start to remove the inner energy absorber from the door panel and then unfasten both the four screws located at the armrest rear and a single retaining screw adjacent to the forward end of the assembly. Secure the finish of components by using duct tape when you detach the armrest wire harness and uninstall the armrest assembly to protect the mirror, window, door lock switch plate applique. The Power Window Switch assembly should be removed from its pocket in the door trim panel followed by disconnecting the wire harness from its connection on the Power Window Switch. During installation the Power Window Switch must be attached to the armrest switch plate applique with a firm connection. Reattach the power window wire harness to the switch assembly then replace it into the trim panel pocket by removing protective tape afterward. Install the armrest to the door trim panel by securing it with four retaining screws at the rear and one screw at the forward end and tightening them to 10 n.m (89lbin). Place the door panel inner energy absorber back into position before reinstalling the upper trim. Fasten the retainers at the back of the panel and tighten them to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Install the door trim panel as the last step.
