Best can opener ever, and I like that it is made in the USA. Opens my 365 Skipjack tuna cans easily. I clean it after with a toothbrush, then dry it with paper towel.
Thanks I broke my sliding door handle today, while opening up the door, my handle broke in the same place as yours. Thanks for this repair video,I'll be fixing the door with confidence now.
Any advice on what to do when the sliding door does not want to shut electronically? After opening it 50% of the time it will attempt to close when I click the button then stop and open fully again. It only moves a few inches when it tries.
It could be a number of things, but the first thing I would look at is the track that the door runs on to make sure there is no debris. If not, I'd suspect that the drive motor for the door is beginning to fail. It could be other things, but those are the first two things I'd suspect.
Don't Lose that Bolt: put a layer of tape on the bolt head (or across the socket's mating hole) THEN push the socket onto the bolt head. The tape will retain the bolt in the socket, it won't fall. Also, buy a plastic tool set that's designed to pry body panels off: "Auto Trim Tool Kit" $14 for 5 shapes
I just recently bought one of these after going through many made in China garbage openers. This thing is awesome. I couldn't believe how it cut through the can lid like butter. It's also cheap price wise. Worth every penny.
It is July 24 2022, my van is 2001 with low mileage . Actually all 5 door handles have broken. But after watching this, I can fix the sliding door handle. Thank you so much!
Yeah. When I made this video, it was the second handle that I had replaced. Both times, they had gotten stuck during an ice storm and when someone pulled too hard on them they broke.
Tip, Tie a piece of thread around the bolt head and then you can easily "fish" out the bolt or by a magnetic extension retrieval tool from your local auto parts store.
Here's a silver one. If you need a different color, just search for it on Google or Amazon and include the color name. But take note that this is a cheap aftermarket handle. Not the highest quality, but it should work. If you want the best, buy one from an online Toyota parts store. www.amazon.com/dp/B01GIHWCJU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_Y9EZJC2NYPKZHVF0ES66
You're welcome! Glad I could help. After I got sticker shock from the price that the dealer wanted to charge, I decided to tackle it myself and realized it was not hard at all.
$35 for the handle online and then 45 minutes to put on. I was going to go to a mechanic but then I saw your video. Really good tip on not letting the bolts drop down into the door too-which is something I might have done but for the warning. :)
@@jhratcli Yeah, I get a lot of comments about that tip. Especially whenever someone ignores my advice and then spends forever trying to fish the bolt out.
Thanks for the vid. I broke off the door handle the other day while I was working, and now I hope I can open up the panel without opening the door because I can't open it from the inside until I fix that! 😫😩
Great instructions! Despite your dire warning, I dropped a bolt and could not get it out. I never knew that metric threads were different from English, but after a trip to the hardware store I'm good. Thank you!
Very cool. I fixed mine in a few hours. Struggled for a bit cause someone had messed with the internals, until I finally figured out how to put them back in the right spot. I did break one of the clip mounts on the door cover, sadly. I managed with only some adjustable wrenches and my fingers, but you will definitely have an easier time with a ratchet.
Just broke the passenger side sliding door handle on the wife's 2000 Sienna but forgot how I did it, probably trial and error method. The driver door handle is cracked and I have the replacement so once these are done the only original door handle on the van will be the passenger front door handle. I have replaced or will have replaced all of the others. Toyota's are notorious for breaking door handles. I have also replaced them on the pickups and Camry's.
