QuestionI do not have the tool to release the hooks that hold the panel in place. Do I need to purchase the tool, or is there an alternative? power lock is not working for this door only.
AnswerREMOVAL
Remove the window crank, if equipped. (WINDOW CRANK REMOVAL TOOL)
Remove the interior handle. (Refer to 23 - BODY/DOORS - REAR/INSIDE HANDLE ACTUATOR - REMOVAL)
Remove the screw near the inside handle. (Rear Door Trim Panel)
CAUTION: Trim panel is attached to the door using hooks molded into the panel. Do not pull the trim panel straight off or damage to the panel and/or power switch assembly may occur.
Lift the trim panel up off the belt seal and attachment hooks and separate the panel from the door slightly.
Disconnect the power window switch electrical connector, if equipped, and remove the trim panel.
