Power Door Lock Switch: Service and Repair

REMOVAL

NOTE:
^ When a lock cylinder is replaced, both door and the ignition lock cylinders should be replaced in a set. This will eliminate carrying an extra key which will fit only one lock. If a key is to be replaced, the new key code number is stamped on a metal tag attached to the key.
^ Individual lock cylinders are repaired by discarding the inoperative cylinder and building a new lock cylinder using the appropriate lock repair package. The lock repair package includes a detailed instruction sheet to build the new lock cylinder to the correct key code of the vehicle.

1. Raise the front window.
2. Remove the front door trim panel.
3. Remove the watershield.







4. Disconnect the front door latch control cylinder rod from the door lock cylinder lever.







5. Remove the door lock cylinder.
