  A: Take out the door trim panel and the plastic water-shield. Remove the latch retaining screws from the end of the door, then reach inside the door to release the latch from the control rods. Certain models have a stiffening brace that must be removed to gain access to the rear of the latch. For any vehicle with power door locks, unplug its electrical connector. Unhook the door latch, and if it exists, unfasten the door lock solenoid. Installation will be done in reverse from removal. If present, separate electrical contact from locking cylinder. A screwdriver or pliers can be used to take off this part's locking cylinder retaining clip. Move lock outward so that it separates itself from door and lock cylinder control rod. In some cases, one has to disentangle a clip which attaches control rod and lock cylinder together.
