Removing and Installing Door Activators

To remove a faulty activator, remove the door trim panel and protective liner as described in 5.1 Door Assembly. Remove the activator retaining screws and unhook the connecting rod as shown in Fig. 5-15. When removing the master activator from the driver's door, first disconnect the battery ground cable, and disconnect the activator electrical connector. When removing all other activators, pull the hose from the activator. Installation is the reverse of removal.
