Hi, I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing or maintaining your vehicle. I'm going to use my 20-plus years experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks like this to show you the correct way to install parts from 1AAuto.com. The right parts installed correctly: that's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the rear outside door handle on this 2002 GMC Seirra Crew Cab, same as a Silverado as well as the same as the rear doors on Suburban. The only tools you'll need are flat blade screwdriver, a 7mm socket, a 10mm socket and then a ratchet and extension.
There are two 7mm screws that you have to remove or bolts: one right in there and then one down in the bottom corner, here. Then, as well, you need to pry out this trim panel, pry out your lock button and pry out your window switch and disconnect it. First put your fingers under it. Pull up that bezel. Take a regular screwdriver stick in the front there, pull out your lock button and on this switch, also pry up gently there. In front of it, there's a little tab. Use your screwdriver, push on it and pull the connector down and out. You can also pry out your light and reflector and disconnect it. Take your 7mm socket and ratchet and extension. We'll just speed up here as we remove those two 7mm bolts. Once everything is unbolted, then you just lift up on your panel and it comes off. Peel your water shield carefully, and pull it back some.
Now inside there's a rod that runs up to the door handle here and you can easily just use your thumb to push that clip off. Disconnect the rod and there's three bolts: one there, one there and then one that's a little bit more difficult, right up in there. For two of them, use a 10mm socket with a ratchet and extension. We'll just speed it up here as I take those two nuts off that are pretty easy to see. Then take my extension off and put my ratchet right up in. We'll speed it up here again as I take that nut off. Take that, and now, your handle pulls right out. You can see this is rusty. What happens is this breaks or sometimes this pin breaks.
Here's my original handle and a new handle from 1A Auto. You can see it's all the same. It doesn't hurt if you want before you put it in, to spray it with some penetrating oil or white lithium grease. You can see that this gets pretty corroded and gets sticky especially if you don't use the doors a lot and that's how the handle can break. The new handle just installs like the old one came out. Put it right in. Use your original nuts. We'll just speed it up here as I start those three 10mm nuts and then use my socket, ratchet and extension to tighten them up. You want to tighten them up firm; they don't have to be extremely tight, though. Reach up in there, connect the rod back into place. Put the clip back down.
Put your plastic water shield back into place. Put your door handle back on, make sure you bring this right up through here, bring your courtesy light through. The white plastic legs down there, get them resting in the door like that. Push the panel against the door. It should slide down nice and easy. Get this bolt next to the armrest. I just put that in backwards.

Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the exterior door handle on this 2002 Chevy Suburban. We show you on the passenger side but the driver side is the same procedure. The items you'll need for this are a new exterior door handle from one 1AAuto.com, a flat blade screwdriver, an 8 and 10 millimeter socket and ratchet with an extension, and a 10 millimeter wrench.
Start off by prying up your switch panel and then pushing the tab on the harness and disconnecting it. Next remove this eight millimeter bolt, this eight millimeter bolt right here, and this eight millimeter bolt at the bottom of your door panel. We'll just fast forward as Don removes those three bolts. Pull out on this triangle panel and then pry out on this panel from the outside and then slide it over the handle and out. Now, lift the door panel up and pull it free. Next, pry out your courtesy light and just push it through the door panel, and then pry out on the tab and disconnect the harness. Push the tab on this harness and disconnect it. Then, pry out on the tab on this harness and pull it free. There your door panel is free.
Using a flat blade screwdriver, just pry this clip off your door handle rod, and then pull the rod out. Now, remove this 10 millimeter bolt. Now slide the door handle towards the inside of the vehicle and out. Then just carefully pull back the water shield, making sure you don't damage it. I'll fast forward as Don does this.
Then, pry out this cap. In here, you'll see a 10 millimeter nut, right there, and there's another 10 millimeter nut right inside here, as you can see straight back behind by that green clip, and then there's one more 10 millimeter nut on the back side of the door handle, up in the top left corner. We'll fast forward as Don removes these. You want to use that 10 millimeter wrench for that one in the top left corner, and then, for the other two, through those holes, you can just use a socket and ratchet. Now flip this green clip off the door handle rod and then pull out this lock rod by disconnecting the clip the same way as the green one, and then just angle the door handle down and out. You'll have to swap over your lock, so just pry out this clip and then pull the lock free.
On the left, is the old door handle. On the right, is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they'll fit exactly the same. If you want it to match your vehicle, then you want to just take the door handle to an auto parts store, the paint department, get a can of matching paint, and paint it to match your vehicle.
Push your lock into your new door handle, and then, feed the door handle into place. We'll fast forward as Don replaces those three 10 millimeter nuts. Now re-clip your lock rod and door handle rod and replace this cap. Now, replace your water shield, making sure all the harnesses are pulled through. Put your door handle rod back into place in the interior door handle and re-clip it, and then push the tabs on the door handle back into the door, and slide it back towards the outside of the vehicle. Then replace that 10 millimeter bolt.
Now, to make putting the door panel back on easier, it helps to just pry out your manual lock switch. It just pulls right out. Then you want to reconnect your harnesses, and then pull your courtesy light harness through the door panel and reconnect your courtesy light. Then push it back into place in the door panel. Then put those hooks into those bottom slots and then slide the door panel back in place. Make sure all the clips are lining up, your harnesses are pulled through, and that it's fully back in place. Now line up the rod with the manual lock, and push it back in, and then, replace those three 8 millimeter bolts. Now, you want the inside of this panel to go in first, so slide it over your door handle, and then, tuck that inside end in first, then the middle tab, and then, the back tab. Replace this triangular panel and then reconnect your switch pack harness, push the back end and then push the front end, and you're all set.
