I want to take off the pass side front door panel to investigate the inop power window motor. When I utilize the master switch, I can see the door switch lights dim, indicating that switch is getting power. I would like to get some play by play instructions on how to remove the panel to give the motor the "wack" test. Thanks!!

Little triangle pops off.

Little square screw cover behind latch handle. Remove screw.

Lift switch panel up from front. Clip in front, hinge type clip in back.

Disconnect wires.

Screw inside there.

Screw at bottom of door.

Give the bottom a slight whack upwards and lift the whole panel directly up.

I think I 'membered everything.

Have fun. Good luck.

There was a thread some time back that is in reviews now. It was a speaker install thread but it involved removing the door panel. It has pictures. Pictures good.

Think you left out the little trim piece behind the door latch that need to be poped out.

Just be careful, taking apart the door panel too many times tends to make the "little triangle" thing loose.

True, but once it's off, you can remove the little clippy and stretch it (slightly) and bend the little pokeys that hold on to the plastic down a bit more to tighten it up.

Pardon all the technical jargon...:D
