As an option, you can remove the window guide bolt and move the guide out of the way for easier access to the handle bolt so you don't have to use a wrench inside the door cavity. I wish Ford would make these actuators to last. I've replace all mine at least once, although I have had the truck since new in late 2000. Not giving up that 7.3 Powerstroke, though... :-D Good vid, man.
Finally, someone actually showing something that is easy to see. I've got an 2003 with the door ajar issue and have been trying to get info on pulling out the latches, switches and actuators and replacing the whole assembly on all doors. Thanks for the video,
Video is making it WAY harder than it needs to be. I took a small screw driver and bent the bottom inch and a half at a 90. You can slip it back behind find the clip and pop the actuator out without having to take all that other crap apart.
How do you install the door lock linkage? It fell off while working on it, it’s still connected to the door lock but it’s not one red to anything? Where snd how do I reinstall? Help!
This job sucked, your instructions were helpful, I was able to do it without removing the part you referenced but it wasn’t easy. 15$ part 2 hours labor.
Excursion owner here giving a big THANK YOU. This will make my life easier.
Finally, a video for those of us with Gen 1.0 Super Duty trucks that don't have a big access hole on the inside to get to the latch and actuator.

Thanks for the video and all the close camera angles. Couldn’t have been easy to film in those tight spots, but it was appreciated.
