Fix extended cab door latch with bailing wire: GM SILVERADO, Sierra, Chevrolet, GMC 1999-2006 

Just purchased a one owner 2005 Chevy Silverado 4x4 4 doir step side with the driver side back door with the same exact issue. . gonna give it a try once i get it back from the shop from having it serviced. Awesome video. Everything i needed to know .

Thank you so much for this video.. sux GM doesn’t have a plan for this COMMON problem

Amazon $3 you can get 45 pack fit my tailgate and all my doors , clip in first push rod in then spin down to lock it to the rod , and lasted for a year now and have a whole bunch more if they go again lol

Same exact problem with door and I used a zip tie instead of the wire but worked perfect. Thx so much!

Just used a zip tie and it worked like a charm! Thanks man!

I have a 2000 Silverado extended cab with the same clip broken on the driver’s side rear door. I was able to fix it using GM Part

The universal clip pack does seem to be the pack to use, however you can not put it on the rod first. Once you are able to reach around the latch piece that is in the way to get the clear clip (GM green one is better) in the hole without the rod attached, you can then slip the rod into the clip. Once it is in the clip you can then twist the other part of the clip to attach to the rod to prevent it from sliding out. Needless to say, the bailing wire might be the best way to go short of pulling apart half the door. Also, for the removal of the bottom latch, great work around for now.

Having issues with the top rod, still can't seem to get my door open after fixing the bottom one.

Thank you very much. That is exactly what is wrong with mine..the green clip. Part number. If you can possibly post it later. Thanks

First time I seen an ad on my first click on this channel. But well worth the time. I always watch the full ad and smash thumbs up to support the creator... 😻👍 I know this video will help someone without a good buddy that knows cars.

Was there a link to any of the door clips that actually work or was the fix to replace the whole thing and the wire just a quick fix ?

Thanks been suffering for a week, lucky I'm retired what a bunch of stinking crooks these gm types are. I found threading the rods works well. Got several assorted nuts and bolts kits to fit the holes
