I'm sure there a ton of videos for that part. I always use a towel, slide it between the panel and handle. You pull it tight and work it around in a circle. The towel will grab the clip and spin it off. Bonus is it will catch it vs using a pick or screwdriver will send it flying. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-plg2uvr4-qI.html
Any idea why my door lock switch wont reinstall flush? I took both front panels off and the passenger went back in perfect. The drivers lock switch wont go back in.
This was very helpful. On my 2005 1500 extended cab, there is another screw (the three you showed, and a fourth) on on the bottom of the panel going straight up into the door. Maybe they only did this on the extended cabs, not sure. Everything else was spot on.
The 2003 and probably earlier Silverado's have a lot less screws and clips etc. than the one shown in the video. About half as many actually. If you have manual window cranks there's one clip that you can push down on with flat screw driver and push it off. When you start to put it back on just put the clip on the handle and push it on until it clicks in place instead of trying to put the handle on and then try to put the clip on.
Got some kind of black plastic piece that fell out when I lifted up on him the panel that I cany tell where it goes back. . Anybody else? One hole in the middle and a slot on each end. (Looks important).
That part goes behind the door lock. There are some tabs on the backside of the panel it attaches to. We've had plenty that were missing that piece. They go back together fine and don't seem to have issues.
2006 2500HD driver's side door Bose speaker isn't working , it looks like the door panel has been off before and not a very good job putting it back on, there's clear tape sticking out from behind the panel in the front. and back. Thanks for this video, simple process but it always helps to know exactly what you're doing and this video accomplishes that. I'm hoping the speaker is the issue or maybe a loose wire and not a blown channel on the radio. Thanks again.
It's likely a bad speaker. If you have the Bose radio, you have a Bose amp. I've never seen one drop 1 channel. They usually just quit. Pull the panel, check wiring, pop test the speaker (you can google how to do that, you may be able to tell right away that its bad just by looking) grab a set of 6 3/4", wire em up, screw then in and do the other side. I like the Memphis SR 6 3/4" coax...fairly inexpensive, sound great and fit well. Best of luck to ya.
Hum, that's a new one..learn something everyday. We've replaced speakers in literally hundreds of these trucks and I've never seen that. If you happen across a link that shows that I'd love to share it.
Thank you so much! I had all the screws and plates off. I didn’t realize I could just lift the panel off. I was pulling and tugging all set to destroy the panel. I really appreciate this video!
My speakers didn’t last 30,000 miles and I never cranked on them, mines a crew cab so I changed them all, factory speakers are junk. Now I’m on my 4th time pulling off the door panels, window motors, regulators, tracks, lock actuators etc, all before 55,000 miles. Everything in these doors are junk. Now I’m off to get the rusted out rockers, cab corners, rear wheel arches and all brake lines replaced at 60,000 miles. These trucks were built cheap.
It would be nice if your videos were correct because I had to take my door panels off my 2003 Silverado 2500 and there were no clips on the inside of the truck to remove and there was no t20 screw at all and there was a screw on the bottom side of the door panel holding it on the bottom of the door also to help your readers the wiring harnesses are real short to where you have to have patience hold the door panel how to remove the harnesses don't forget you have one at the lower side for your light too
Thanks brother, so much easier now. Had to replace my window motor. Just couldn't get the damn thing off. Didn't know is there was a bolt behind the switch
It's been a bit since I've done one, but they aren't to bad. You should be able to find a video about it (I usually post videos for topics that haven't already been covered or haven't been explained well).
