Thanks for the video. I had to replace the inside driver's side door handle on my son's 2011 Mazda 3 and this step by step video worked perfectly.
This is what I'm here for! Any extra tips?
Amazing work. Had to take door panel off to clean up inside after my partner chundered straight down into the gap at the top of the panel after a hens party, very relieved to have it all cleaned up, thanks again!
This is great! Worked on my 2013 mazda3. I just followed along. Great job and THANK YOU!
Outstanding. I have to investigate a drivers side door handle that is no longer functioning. I'm rolling the window down to open the door from outside. Very inconvenient. I will investigate the problem, now that I see how to take everything apart. Thank you so much for this invaluable guidance. In today's dystopian environment, we have to find ways to save money. Many thanks from Stewart in sunny northern California.
I just got a used Mazda 3 2012 and I’m having the same issue. What ended up being the problem and solution for you?
Super helpful. Passenger door won’t open from the inside, but outside handle works. After taking the panel off watching your video, I found out one of the two tension wires that attach to the inside door handle was broken. Looking now for a replacement.
Same thing happened to mine
Beautiful tutorial, had to fix the handle (just came loose) and had to remove the door panel. This was perfect. Thank you
Your very welcome I am gald you found my video helpful. Thank you for watching and commenting.
What was wrong with your handle? I'm having the same issue
Very clear video. Thank you
Thank you for watching.
This was a huge help. We replaced the driver side front and back doors. Can you help explain why the key fob locks all the other doors but not the new ones? Is there a trick?
Can you tell me the size of the bolts that hold the window motor down? Is it 10mm?
Thank you for the helpful video!! Had to find a screw I lost trying to replace my mirror turned out I just needed to remove the third pice and use a telescoping magnet worked perfectly
Your very welcome, ah yes the dropping of items that fall into weird places. I recently got my phone stuck in the front fender when i was working on the mazda. Video of that coming out in a couple weeks.
I am glad my video was helpful.
I hope you can help! Once i removed the door panel, the auto function for my window stopped working. Window still works, just not auto down/ up anymore
Just wanted to say, you were a big big help, thanks man
Your welcome i am glad it was able to help you i your project.
Thank you for watching.
Been worrying about replacing my door speaker.Can know give it a go because of this great video.Thank you.
Hey, thats awesome I hope it all goes smooth. Thanks for watching my video. Let me know how it turns out!
Appreciate the video. For those who are here for replacing the interior door handle, once I took the 3 screws out to remove door panel, your able to swap out that door handle without needing to undue any connections to your controls or completely removing door panel . Just leave everything hanging. Save you the time trying to undue the clips for everything . There’s also 2 little screws that you’ll need to remove for the lock / unlock button . Super fast 5-10 minutes job.
Your Welcome, Thank you for leaving a great and helpful comment to others.
Great video,
Helped me out tremendously!
Awesome, thank you for commenting! I am glad it helped.

Your Welcome, I am glad it was able to help you replace your driver side speaker with all the information you needed.
What size were they??..... 6x8 components??
Thanks for info
Great video! I have to investigate why the drivers side window is not working. Watching this video will be very helpful! Tks!
Your welcome, Hopefully this will help aid in your investigation making it easier to get to the root of your problem.
Thank you very much for watching!

Hey No Problem, Thanks for watching.
Awasome man thank you very much saved a lot of headaches
Your Very Welcome. Thank you for commenting on my video!
Thank you. 2023!
Your welcome
Hello. Could you please tell me if you know the size of the coaxial for the front and back doors? Thank you
sorry I dont know, I hope someone on here can help you out.
Hi! I had a small metal bracket fall out of my inner door panel when removing it. I thought I saw this piece in your video here for a second, on your inner panel. But I just cannot figure out where this goes. Any knowledge is much appreciated, thank you!
I didnt remember seeing a small metal bracket so I rewatched the video a couple times and looking at the inner frame of the door I dont see where one would be. I also tried to see if there was something on the plastic door panel and again I could see anything. I dont see where one could be. did you remove the drivers door panel or one of the rears? There might be some slight differences.
sorry I know it's not much help.
Thanks for watching.
@@TDLDIY Thanks very much for your reply. I removed the front driver side panel but no worries. The panel seemed to be plenty secured once it was back on. As far as the electrical goes in the doors on these cars, do you know of any grounding points that they might have?
Appreciate the vid
Thanks for watching
Thanks man. Now i can save a bunch of cash by doing my own sound deadening
Thats a great idea, I glad you found my video helpful. Maybe thats something i will do in the future.
@@TDLDIY i recommend kilmat you get a lot for the price
@@ShatteredPulsar Awesome, Thanks for the recommendation.
How hard is it to take the gray weather/ inner panel off?
I need to get in there to apply some rust converter and inhibitor
it looks fairly easy should just need to unscrew the bolts that hold it on. I might be able to do a video of that once the weather gets nicer in a month or so.
@@TDLDIY thanks man! I'll give it a shot. I want to put some rust mort in there in the hopes it works it's way in between the outer skin and structural door panel. Then I'd load it up with rust check or fluid film.

Your welcome. Thank you for watching my video.
Thanks! gonna try and give this a good ole whirl r n
Please make video for 2010 mazda cx 9 lift gate pannel removal
Can u make a video on how to remove & replace the side glass🚗👋
I had a great deal of trouble removing the door panel. It was stuck. Putting it back on was difficult as well. The top of the door seemed to be thicker. Any suggestions?
Yeah these videos don’t always work as easy as they make them look,it’s not you.This guy has apparently done this many times before he made the video.
Thanks for sharing! Going to be doing this to mine soon, I’m investigating an intermittent buzz from the driver door with music on when the window is shut, that goes away if you tap the window down slightly then back up. Have you ever heard of this?
Hey, your welcome i am glad my video will provide help your issue. Unfortunately i have never heard of that before sounds like a pretty weird issue. If you figure it out please comment back here. I would be curious to know what it is.
Definitely common, especially on high mileage or if you have blown/aftermarket motor mounts. One of the several screws has probably worked their way out a bit (check the two that appear to be a nut instead of a bolt first)
@@sarahburnside4606 just tore into my door, found that there was an issue with the cable touching the glass sometimes with the window fully up. I moved the cable and moved the foam insulator on it, the noise is gone :)
What size/kind are the stock non-bose speakers? I'll have to follow your guide to reach to them and change them.
I will measure mind and let you know.
@@TDLDIY OK, thanks.
I just measured and from side to side including the plastic around it is 1 3/8"
@@TDLDIY thanks. Are they round or oval?
@@veketash they are round.
Do you have a video on how to replace the door cable?
No i dont sorry.
So hey, I did this and now my drivers window doesn't roll down with the one touch. I have to hold the button to hold it down. The car was on when I did this. You know of that happening or how to fix that?
Its always recommended to have the vehicle off and battery disconnected when working with any electrical system in your car.
u need to take mine off. have you had any issues with the window controls not always working or the door locks sometimes taking a couple clicks?
I haven't had any issues with window controls, but as for the door locks yes my car isn't locking so we have to manually lock it for now. I have been looking into for some while i have lead to believe mine will need a bcm flash but dealers wont just do the flash they want to look at it themselves which increase labour costs alot.
for mine none of the lock buttons work. unlock is ok.
if you can lock with remote or passenger door then your driver side door switch just might be going bad most likely replace switch. or if it's only the passenger side same thing.
I hope this will help and put you on the right track. Thanks for watching.
@@TDLDIY i managed to get mine to work. i took out all my switches and took the switches apart and cleaned the contact points. there was some white powdery stuff (prolly corrosion of some sort) on them. once i did that they worked perfectly. as for my clicker it take quite a few presses to get it to lock and unlock sometimes. im going to attempt to clean the key fob next.
Actually on the door handle mine is silver and the paint is almost gone... Don't think they sale that piece only and painted.. mine is Mazdaspeed 3 2012.. plus driver speaker sometimes it doesn't work... Dont know if is the amp or some loose connection on the door...
hi, i have an issue with my door switch in the driver side, the unlock doors button doesn't work, but the lock button works, what should i do?
I am currently working on an issue with mine, with the unlock works and my lock doesnt. My key fob doesnt work either. So after testing and hooking up live scanner... plus some googling for me anyways I think I need to get my BCM reflashed.
as for your situation does your key fob work? does it unlock the car? and does the same thing happen when pressing the passenger side unlock button?
@@TDLDIY the passenger side buttons work perfectly and my key fob too. I hope you fix your issues. Let me know
@@santiagogonzalez9253 ok that narrows down your problem. I would check your wires there might be a break in the line and or your switch might be going.
If you can test your switch with using another one and see if the problem is still there and if it isn't then your switch became faulty.
I hope this helps and let me know how it turns out.
@@TDLDIY all right thanks i’ll let you know🙏🏼
@@TDLDIY i changed my main switch and it solved the problem;)
This is nuts. How do you people get the wiring harnesses disconnected? My fingers are nearly bleeding from trying to grip on these microscopic plastic lips to pull them apart.
100% useful video, thank you very much!
Question: I have 2011 Mazda 3 and left front window doesn't work, fuse is OK so it must be mechanism itself, is it difficult to replace the "scissors" mechanism?
if the fuse is good I could assume the motor or mechanism could be faulty. you can always test the motor if you can get to it. I have never changed out the window mechanism before but I have seen a couple videos. doesnt look too hard. I believe the window has to be down to get it out and get the mechanism out.
Sorry can be much more help. I am glad you found this video helpful thanks for watching.
@@TDLDIY ok, I'll try, I'm good with DIY 🙂
Thanks for quick reply! 👌
@@ivankrizan9233 hey no problem good luck let me know how it goes.
It’s the switch that needs changing
What happen to my Mazda 3 2007.. All door working lock and unlock by remote and the front door lock doesn't work..
I am trying to figure out a similar issue once i get a better understanding and figure out an answer i will be posting a video. My doors dont lock from the button inside but will unlock and my lock and now unlock for the remote doesnt work as well. from what i am hearing it might be a problem with the BCM. either flash will need to be done or worst case new BCM. But that is what i am reading there are other checks that would need to be done before. One issue about the BCM needing a flash is the only place that can do it is Mazda. So they might require them to figure out whats wrong before and that could add up.
Once i figure out the answer for my situation which sounds very similar to yours i will post a video as i am sure there are others with the same issues. I hope this kinda helps in some way. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
@@TDLDIY Ive'd solved my problem..I went to the mechanic and they say that the Actuator..I don't know what is it but I think it is intended to rotate or lock the door
@@lester4752 Hey that's awesome thanks for getting back so quick this will surely help others as well. I will have to double check mine out. I did my my neighbour who's a mechanic hook his 2 ways scanner up to see live data. but I will have to look back into it.
Thanks
Sorry just noticed yours is silver too, i need that part
you forgot to remove the clips from the door , at least two that I can see , and put them back on the door card .Not sure how is possible to install it back like that ....
I believe the two clips you were talking about i think they stayed on the door its self. if i remember correctly.
@@TDLDIY nope, one in the left upper corner , one left lower , definitely there when you put the door card back on - just a have a look
@@liviutincu2531 Ah yes your correct. Those 2 must have been stuck in the door panel. But i will double check but i remember 2 being stuck somewhere opposite to were the others were.
Thanks for that i will double check.
@@liviutincu2531 You’re talking about the 2 white clips?
