Hi, I'm Mike 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 remove the front driver's side door panel, passenger side door panels, which are pretty much this same. This is on a Chrysler Pacifica, and the tools you'll need are a flat blade screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, and a door panel clip tool.
Okay, first you'll take a flat blade screwdriver and there's a little trap door right there. You pry that forward and out, and there's one down here. You pry this one back and then out. Okay, so this one, forward and off. And this one, and then pry backwards, a little twist of the screwdriver and pull it out. And then, right in behind, there are two Phillips screws. We'll remove those. Now our door panel clip tool and another screwdriver. The clip tool in behind here, go down to this. You feel this clip now, get right on that clip. Get it apart pretty easy. Go right around the door. It'll release the clips right around. Okay, it's usually probably 5 or 6 clips. Okay, and pull it out and up and off.
Okay, so it's a little hard to film, but we'll start with this speaker wire. You should be able to just pull it right off. Okay, then these harnesses, they just all have little tabs right on the bottom of them. Pull up with your finger and release. So that middle one you need to unplug. Okay, this cable here, pull it out, and then pull this out, and then the cable comes out, and you can disconnect. There's a clip here. Pull the clip off. Pull that cable off and out. This cable should pull out. It looks like this has been apart before. Somebody broke it, so there's not a wire tie holding it. Snip the wire tie. Okay, and the cable should just snap right out of there. And then it pulls forward and out, and then finally way down is your courtesy light.
Same thing, it pulls right off. Okay, bring the door panel over. We're going to plug in our light way down here first, but we can't see it. We're going to plug in our speaker. Plug in our two harnesses there. Okay, this goes in, and you kind of have to peek down around. Pull your lock up. Slide it, slide it backwards, in, and then just leave it there for now. This one goes into the handle and lock this clip on. Okay, bring it around. Pull it back. The cable in and down. Okay, and as you bring the door panel towards the door, put this cable in. Put the panel up and on. Put it back in here. Put our two screws back in. Put our little trim doors back on.
