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 and reinstall a rear door panel on this 2006 Nissan Sentra. Tools you'll need are a Phillips screwdriver, a 10 millimeter wrench, or 10 millimeter socket and ratchet, and then you'll also need a trim tool or a putty knife would work as well.
Now, to remove this, there is a little Phillips clip in here. Just turn it lightly with a Phillips screwdriver. If it doesn't come out, you don't want to press on it. It should come right out. If it doesn't come out, you might want to pry on it with a small flat-blade screwdriver. This does end up coming right out. Now, here, you want to pull up on this.
That whole thing comes out and then you pop on this and you can disconnect your window switch, by pressing this button right there. You may find that you need to use a small screwdriver. Press on the button, and pull off. Use your screwdriver here. You'll want to gently pry out on this bevel on the top and on the bottom, and then, on the back here as well.
Right here, there are two bolts. They have Phillips heads in them but it may be easier just to use a 10 millimeter wrench. Once those are off, you can reach right down here. You feel a hole in the door panel. Then, just give a good, quick, firm pull. It releases the clips. There is one more clip right up in here. Once those clips are released, then lift up on the door panel. Bring it right out.
To reinstall your panel, bring it up, line it up. You've got to really push in the back here. Then, slide it down into place. You just kind of use your putty knife basically to just kind of pry this part right up. Now, just reach down and make sure that your power window harness comes through. Then, you can set all the clips around the edge. Your two bolts: you just reinstall them. A screwdriver is good enough. Plug your switch back in. The front goes down in first. This goes right in. Make sure you press it down firmly, get it locked in and then this back right around the door handle. Make sure it's locked on perfectly. For this, you just push it right back into place.
