I was missing the bolt holding the bottom of the window track. Once I saw that in the video and removed the bolt, I easily worked the actuator back into place! Thanks for the video!
Thank you, Jim. This was something I figured I could do and I did do it without any particular trouble, but your tips made it so much easier! I can't imagine how much I would have struggled before I figured out to remove the 10mm bold to be able to move the window track.
Good video. The 3 tight screws can easily be taken out with a #3 driver bit on cordless impact. They have blue lock tight on them and are almost guaranteed to strip using manual methods.
My new part didn’t come with the metal bar for the lock that’s attached. Is there a way to take the metal bar off the old actuator and put on the new one?
When they build these car and truck doors you would think they leave a little more room so parts can be replaced more easily. I replaced the outside door handle on my explorer and one of the two studs was almost impossible for me to reach. You know how sharp those opening edges can be. Just takes some time and a lot of patience Very good video Jim
Thanks for the help! Had 2 to replace today. Only thing I would add is that the "blue" clip is passenger side and that it rotates off but shouldn't fall out. And that the rod should be pulled straight out with a pair of pliers. Peace, Grant
So you reused the cover plate with the original foam insulation attached? I know that foam stripping is no longer sold at the dealer but do you happen to know the dimensions? It looks like 1/2" Width 1/8" Thickness. I've been looking for a replacement foam before starting this project but maybe your method is the best way to go.
About to have my wife's passenger side door done at our local mechanic. About how long do you think it should take? Just looking for a rough estimate. Thanks and love your videos!
This may be a dumb question, but is there a way to replace it without the door being open? My driver side door is the one that is broken, and it’s permanently locked.
Yes you can but you have to remove the door panel to gain access to the lock and screws. Be careful when removing the panel so you don't brake the panel.
Great job Jim. My wife's Nissan Murano SUV liftgate actuator went out, a garage told her the part alone was over $500. Does this sound right, and anywhere else besides the dealer to buy one? Thanks, John
If you go to Nissan Parts & look up your part from an online Dealer or OE Parts Source you will find the Actuator is $691/$426. I just put in a 2012 Murano,you could take it out & check it out & also consider a used part at a salvage yard.
Sorry to be off topic but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb lost the password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.
@Tucker Ezekiel I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Had to smash the living shet out of my impact driver. Started to strip the heads of the screws. Caved in the door slightly. I had to resort to an impact driver bit on my air hammer to get them loose. Honda totally effed up on this one. There is no reason an impact driver should have a hard time getting the screws loose.
I thought Honda agreed to pay the cost to fix because someone sued and won the case. If you own 2007 through 2009 you could have dealer fix it for free because it was their part was bad when they built it new. So go to dealer and don't spend your own money.

Check the 3 mounting screws before you start to make sure they will come off.... Had to drill out one of mine. Pretty tough to complete.

this part is where I got stuck right now, will update once I pulled it out, geez it's not really easy 😉
Great job as always Jim!

Best place to buy this part? I just bought a used 2011 CRV and need this part for the drivers side door
Your videos are always good.
Thank You Jim!
I bought an actuator that didn’t come with a lever arm. The connection at the base of the arm is impossible to attach to the new actuator. Any tips?
I’m having the same issue
I ended up returning the part that I had ordered and reordered some parts that for sure had the actuator arm connected to the body.

Hey Jim, do you know if these 07 CRV actuators would fit an 07 Crossroad?
I’m not sure but I think it will not work

Very very helpful and detailed. Thanks a lot
Those three screws near the hinge is incredibly difficult. I had to use an impact driver many times to get it going. Be careful not to round them.

I think the cut off for redeeming that offer was in 2015
@@smrfsrok Thank you for your information. I wouldn't want other people to waste their time because of my mistake.
honda succeeds in creating a Bullshine ridiculous idea. Just like BMW and Mercedes.
Prying the rod out is the real pain. Good luck.
