hey everybody
Dennis here today we're gonna be working
on the Chevy Silverado wanting to try
and finally replace this door lock
actuator here um I want to get it off
and disassembled I got some other stuff
to show y'all parked off we have to pop
this cover off here let's trim piece I
remember out doing it right after
breaking it go see hey you actually
going to need to pop this off just comes
off pretty easily on this truck anyway
next we're going to take the master
switch off and unplug it's three
connectors
next we have two seven millimeter screw
person in right here that hold the door
panel own next ones right here kind of
hard to see from the camera
more than his amount least we'll find
out a minute
and the or panel should be ready to come
off actually
I take it that at this trim piece up
here in the corner just pops off yeah
should be ready to come off
try to remember is there's a way you can
break this door panel and actually this
one is kind of heartbroken okay you got
a lift up on this door panel you can't
pull out most of the cars I've ever
dealt with the Lexus and Toyota and
Subaru they all have clamps hold the
door panels in this one you have to lift
up pull back because if you don't go
into something like this show y'all
I just gotta unplug this fancy life how
not to break it
move the store panel out the way so this
is what you'll end up with if you do not
lift that door panel up the right way
you got to lift it up because it hooks
in it does not pull straight out and
that's what I think the guy that first
on the truck did and then I repeated it
when I'm holding off before anyway so
now what we're going to do is focus on
this area where the door lock actuator
actually is try to remember I had this
out before wasn't too terribly hard to
do
the bulb came loose inside of the house
inner feeling there are three connectors
on this this is actually a latch
actuator and I'll explain y'all and a
little bit one I had to go this route
it's a rather expensive route but it's
what I had to do I actually was able to
get the actuator for I think as a
hundred and ten bucks but none of the
actuators came with this third wind just
blew the door panel over there yay
none of the lock actuators came with
this third connector here which is
actually glued on to the back and it has
this rod that's attached to it right
here I'm not sure what its function is
but you know this whole latch assembly
was two hundred and thirty dollars and
I'll show y'all when I get the old one
out some other stuff so anyway
trying to remember because likes has
been a little while oh this came out
matter of fact I didn't bring up the
flashlight and one truck through this
new act winter came with some of these
clips normally you would just unplug the
rod but it came with new clips on it so
I don't have to worry about necessarily
breaking them or whatever on the way out
and do it to me have a little easier
just blah blah and that was sharp good
good good
win the trick watch out that's how you
sharp kind of see there's a couple of
these frauds inside of here and it had
these little clips that you have to
unlock there that one's kinda loose that
one is for bead or what is that that's
the key lock I think that for a lock and
then there is a another one right here
and that one is prison handled so it's
just you're going to have to kind of get
in there yourself I can't get a camera
in there to show you all there's gonna
be all those things that I'll pop it
loose and bring y'all back how about
that all right so I got the two rods
loose from the key block and the door
handle now there's actually two more one
more right here the handle and to get
that one off it's easiest to just unbolt
the door handle and then remove the rod
and it's a 10 millimeter bolt now once
you remove that pull this actuator turn
this handle forward
pops out once you do that it's a little
easier to get this tab retaining clip
off this rod nor fat well I got this
still in there almost I'm gonna show
y'all this is what all those other clips
look like inside the door okay get your
focus little buddy
sorry about that tripods a little stiff
there
I don't like took a minute anyway this
is what they all look like and you have
to pop them open we're gonna move my
hands just a proud - I can't run on the
words that so I don't have to do without
for now
what's that no anyway so try see them go
out just a little bit make up a single
better try and get my fingers behind the
back side of this tab and push it
forward it's not happening for me okay
there we go
see how it went from see if I can show
you all this
close would be where that tab is on top
of the rod and it open is like that 90
degrees off and then the rod should
either simply lift out or sometimes it
tops out so let's see there's another
little close-up of that clip so that
rods loose go ahead and pull that out of
the way and this road is actually for
the lock and you have to careful of
these XC count me make sure you see
these are for the pocket you want to
make sure you're careful with these
don't break them so alright yeah those
two rods are loose like said there's
those three clips we can focus on
actually unbolting and then unplugging
the actuator which is going to be over
here just a little I'm gonna go ahead
and unplug it they're actually unbolt it
there's a t-33 these three bolts over
here in the corner then you see how it
just a movable
as you heard it fell down so please all
right now that I'll take a little bit of
maneuvering to get this thing out for
Freddie a little bit cut myself some
more as I'm pulling it down and getting
better access to the plugs I'll go ahead
and plug like I said there's three here
are here is door lock actuator latch
assembly as it is commonly called with
all the rods and stuff on there and I'm
going to swap them the best that I can
and I want to explain to y'all how I
come to find out that I was going to
have to get this whole latch to start
off there is a part number on top of
this latch you can't really see it
anymore
it leave it as a 1 506 - 36 81 I may be
wrong in that because I can't really see
it anymore
but the part number ended up being this
is a 2000 Silverado that part number
I'll end up being for a 2003 to 2007 and
that's why I couldn't ever find it only
the parts list so I had to do a little
research and found this exact actuator
for an O 3 Silverado when it
mm but that's what it used so and as you
can see they're identical
Raj cut the camera when it got a color
difference in the connector but it'll
work so like I said I got a unplug these
rods and I'm gonna try to put them in
almost the exact same position on this
one and hopefully that'll be alright so
anyway that's 157
I'll bring out back when I got
everything swapped over all right I got
all the rods swapped over and I forgot
to show you what the actual problem was
here is the I think this is myself here
is the new lock actuator as you can see
this is the actual latch or lock plunger
for the actuator see how it goes all the
way down and has that little black
rubber mount on it right there
here is the let's see the old one it's
actually broken off so you gotta see
that anyway so that is why this dog was
not locking or unlocking with switch
ever since I've owned this truck it has
been that way so what we're gonna go
ahead and do now is we got all the rods
swapped over where I'll go ahead and
install the new latch assembly
I don't remember had to this Oklahoma
backlight the door doesn't matter I can
go ahead and plug it in and out put in
later trouble go ahead
look at these two rods for the door
facing up
I got it in there go ahead go ahead try
to get some of these bolts started way I
have something to work with back a nap
both of my hands-free hope I'm getting
all this on camera because I can't see
the screen so what I'm going to do is
I'm gonna go ahead and reattach the rods
first before I get this bolted
that one's own and real quick along here
I'm going to go ahead and plug
everything in this wire runs behind the
rods or in front of I should say want to
go ahead you can see all the connections
really close alright let's unplug in put
the rods back in place and then I'll
worry about this one in a minute once I
get actuator bolted down
tighten the bolts down now go ahead grab
my flashlight out of there get run this
rod I'm good to go back out I guess
good run a fraud back through this
weather
coding whatever y'all want to call it
which customer and I'll reattach the
interior door handle
rod to the handle
snap it
a little bit so funny easy way yes I'd
be a little easier right there really I
get that 10 millimeter back in and I'll
bring out back and just sing alright so
we're going to reattach this Gopal it's
kind of because it piece is broken I
don't have any poxy to fix it okay just
connected right
it's in the lobbying away good now all
that has to be done is put all the
hardware back on the mirror switch or
sensei master swish and walk you've seen
their switch and the two seven
millimeter screws
door handle put on this a pillar trim
piece which doesn't really see me tango
goes up here that's put on the
lock/unlock
switch I guess button I call it
do not want to go home
maybe because I'm trying to put it on
reference that probably want try to put
it on back here anyway I'll worry about
the cursor life a minute we're gonna go
ahead get a little pissed
ample the reboot doesn't yell any other
sublet do the blood works oh that's nice
I love that and that is how you replace
a door lock actuator latch assembly on a
2000 Chevy Silverado thanks for watching
