2009 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 Rear Driver Side Interior Door Handle TRQ DHA49544

I'm just going to hit the dome lamp override switch to shut off dome lights, just so we don't run the battery down. Open up your door, and using small flat blade screwdriver or a small trim tool, remove a couple panels: one in behind your door handle—just twist lightly and pull that out; there's one right back in here, right in the middle—pull out and off; then the door lock knob, pull up on it lightly, and try and pry this center clip out at same time. Comes up and off. If you have good fingernails sometimes you can just pull up and off on that. You could also use a trim tool available on 1aauto.com. Put it underneath, pull straight up, make sure you pull up on the front. Somebody was not that careful on this one, and you can see they actually broke off the tab from the trim. Then you'll want to disconnect your power window switch, just a little tab here. Pull and disconnect. Then we'll remove three 10 millimeter bolts: one here and then two down underneath where your door pull is. 10 millimeter bolts, remove them with a 10 millimeter socket ratchet and extension. A lot of times these ones won't come all the way out, and that's okay. You can retrieve them when you get the door panel all the way off.

You'll want to use a trim tool. Once you get in there, you can see in behind there and see where the clips are. Got one here, roughly here and here. Pull out firmly, and work your way around. Then my bolts have popped out here, so I'll make sure I collect those. Once I'm sure I'm all the way around, lift up, and out. Then on here there's a couple of little tabs. I'm going to push the tab, pull out a little bit, twist it around, push the other tab. Push that through and out, and my door panel comes out. You can see there's actually clips on the padding here. It's still clipped on in a couple of spots. Just push those off.

We're going to replace this inside door handle for the passenger side door. We've removed the door panel from the vehicle. You have to flip it over. These are seven millimeter self-tapping screws. I'm going to use a seven millimeter nut driver or you can use a socket. There's some little push in tabs here. We're going to use our plastic prying tool, and just try to pry them out.

This is our old handle from the vehicle. This is our new one from 1AAuto.com. They're both chrome. This comes with a little protective plastic over it, so it doesn't get scratched up during shipping. As you can see, they're both gray. Got the same type of push pin or push locks as the old one. Little locating tabs. Same set up for the Bowden cable. If yours is broken, this should beautiful good replacement.

I'm going to take our new handle- I've got the panel facing down. I'm going to reach up from the bottom. Make sure you've got those little locating pins that it's going to find. We're going to push up. It's going to snap into place. We take those seven millimeter self-tapping screws, which means they're going to cut threads into this new plastic. Take a socket driver. Now that it's installed into the door panel, we're going to take this protective plastic off, and we're going to go install this in the vehicle.

You have these longer, larger basically kind of teeth that hook into the square holes down there. Preliminary line everything up. Just make sure your harness goes up and through, and then reconnect your door handle cable in. and pull it out, push it in.

Again, just make sure that that harness is up through. You want this groove to go into the channel here, so lift up. Lift up, push down, and make sure your door lock is up through, your harness is up through, and then you should be able to see it nice and close to the door. There's a large line of pin up here. Once everything is good it'll go in about that far away, and then you can just set all the pins. You just need a pair of pliers, reach in, bring your lock back up. Put your three 10 millimeter bolts back in. One here, and then these two, and load into your socket. If you put some tape or painters tape on it might help hold them in place. I'll just put those in place. Reconnect the switch, feed the harness down in, and make sure you put this in correctly. Then your three pieces of trim, the one in behind the door handle, snap it in place. This one can just go down in place. This one make sure that the little tab is out. Put it down on, lock into place. That's all set.
