Brought to you by 1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the internet. Hi. I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and the next time you need a part for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

In this video, we show you how to replace the power lock switch on this 2006 Jeep Liberty, and the only tools you'll need for this are two flat blade screwdrivers and a Phillips screwdriver. Start off by prying out this little panel behind your door handle. Now, remove this Phillips screw and this one down in your pull cup, and we'll just fast forward as Don does this. Now, pull out around the door panel to release the clips. When you get to the top, pry the door panel out, and once the clip pops free, pull the door panel up and off. On the back of your door panel, you want to release the clip on your door handle rod and pull the door handle rod down and out.

Then, you want to push the tabs on both harnesses and release them. Using one flat blade screwdriver, pry out one side and leave it in there, and then using the other flat blade screwdriver, pry out the other side, and the switch will pop right up and out. Take your new switch. Push it down into place. Now, to replace your door panel, push the harnesses back into place. Push the door handle rod back into place and reclip it. Then, line your door panel up and push it down onto the window seal and over that lock. Now, make sure your clips are lined up and hit them in around the door panel ... and we'll just fast forward here as Don replaces those two Phillips screws, and replaces that little panel behind the door handle.
