  Q: How to replace the front side door striker on Buick Terraza?

  A:

  The procedure to install the front side door lock striker starts with opening the front door to mark the existing striker position on the B-pillar with a grease pencil. Detach the front door lock striker screws before eliminating the front door lock striker plate together with its accompanying shim from the B-pillar area. The front door lock striker shim and plate should be positioned at the scribed B-pillar location while observing the Fastener Notice during installation. Use a correct sequence when installing front door lock striker screws while tightening them to 25 N.m (18 lb ft). After adjusting the front door inside its frame users should check that the front door striker connects properly to the lock before using the striker to achieve front door flushness. Raising or lowering the door with the striker should be avoided. Finally, close the front door.

  Q: How to replace the sliding door striker on the rear of a power sliding door on Buick Terraza?

  A:

  The process to change the rear sliding Door Striker begins with fuse removal from the instrument panel fuse block to disable psd system then sliding door opening. First remove the sliding Door Striker screws before taking out both components from the c-pillar. To mount the sliding Door Striker onto the c-pillar use an oversized hole that fits a caged nut allowing 4 mm (0.15 in) adjustment space. The striker should not engage the door properly so users need to adjust the door placement inside the frame according to need. The sliding door adjustment must utilize the striker to obtain flushness while keeping the door level as the latch reaches the center of the striker position. The proper alignment requires appropriate adjustments of shims. The sliding Door Striker requires screws secured to 25 n.m (18 lb ft) torque values. The psd will become operable after reinstalling the psd 15a fuse into the instrument panel fuse block but both psdms will require a full direction learning process.
