Q: How to replace the power window switch in the rear door on Cadillac CTS?
A: A flat bladed tool should be inserted under the front edge of the rear door switch until it disengages the retainer while pushing the tool firmly towards the switch. First disconnect the electrical connector and then lift up on the rear section of the switch plate to separate it from the door trim panel. A small flat bladed tool will help you disengage the side snap walls of the switch plate to remove the power window switch. To install the switch first connect its electrical connectors then insert it into the door trim panel while allowing the front portion to settle into the panel position. Complete switch installation requires a gentle yet uniform pressing action on the switch to activate the retainer.

Q: How to replace the left front power window switch on Cadillac XLR?
A: Begin replacing the left front Power Window Switch only after turning the Ignition Switch to off position. The procedure starts with door trim panel removal before moving to backside retainer screws of upper trim panel. Then separate the upper trim from the door. You should start by taking out the inner energy absorber from the door panel before proceeding to detach the four retaining screws behind the armrest and one screw at its forward end. Cut the wire harness connection from the armrest and take out the armrest unit while using duct tape to shield the mirror and window and the applique to the door lock switch plate from damage. Uninstall the Power Window Switch assembly from the trim panel pocket then eliminate the wire harness connection. The Power Window Switch installation requires you to place it in position on the armrest switch plate applique before pushing to connect it. Connect the wire harness to the Power Window Switch assembly then return it to the pocket in the door trim panel before taking out protective tape materials. You must install the armrest by connecting its wire harness to the door assembly piece before attaching it to the door trim using four rear screws and one forward screw which should reach 10 n.m of torque (89 lb in). After installing the door panel inner energy absorber, proceed with attaching the upper trim while securing its retainers at the rear side of the panel and tightening both pieces to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Install the door trim panel as your last step.
