door switch

[ncaligst98]

I have a little problem...well my door switch wasnt working on my passager side door and i decided to pull it off and take a look....well the white plug that connects to the little "do dad" that gets pushed in when the door is closes and expands out when the door is open fell into the body (white park when back into the hole) Now since it went back it i cant see it or get to it what do i need to pull off to get behind there...Ive tryed a few tools no luck..heres a pic

you may have to cut around it get it out and weld it back on. I'm sure there is an easier way but I geuss thats one way. Maybe try tweezers to pull it out?

I can't remember for sure, but I think if you take off the inside panel, you can get down there and get your little "do dad" back through that hole.

What!

That's a better idea than your first suggestion. Hemostats also work great for this sort of thing.

Yes, if you remove the trim panel you'll get access to that area but it may take some fishing.

If you take off the rear seat (2 latches under the seat) then unscrew your rear quarter panel (3 screws, 2 at the bottom- last visible when you fold down your seat to trunk access) the panel snaps out.

It gives full access to the plug that fell in the hole. Who ever said to cut and weld should sell their car, fast. And tweezers, sell faster.
