I've watched most of the videos on the handle replacement on UA-cam but this one is dead on! Way to go! I paid the dealer big money to replace it the first two times (around 800 dollars). After watching your video and spending about 50 dollars in parts I was able to do it in about a half hour. My only recommendation would be to check the operation of the actual latch, make sure it is lubricated and free of debris. My hunch is that the latches get gunked up, rusted, and dirty and this causes the handle to break prematurely. Also, the white retainer clips that hold the body panels on inevitably break when you pull the 4 panels off the inside. You may want to buy a half a dozen or so when you replace the handle just in case. They are only about a dollar.
Thanks for the best information video to do this I will be changing mine tomorrow morning- and I will be using your video again as I repair my latch!!! Thanks again
Thanks Sir for the info, my neighbor has a 2004 sequoia with the same problem and asked me would I do it, i said no way, but since u made it look so easy, I'm willing to give it a shot. keep the videos coming, and thanks for sharing
Do you know maybe what kind of bolts are they or where can I find the 4 replacement bolts that holds the rear window? Ugh that’s all I’m needing! Thanks
Thanks for that video. Very well done. This will be my second rear handle install, the first one I did not use any you tubes so I had to muddle through on my on. This will help. One thing I noticed on a few other you tubes on this topic is those also remove the entire large bracket that holds the window mechanisms. I see you just use a long extension and go through those two holes, I assume it's magnetized? I had noticed those holes last time after I did it the hard way. Thanks again. I was considering getting an after market handle, they do have metal ones for pretty cheap. I may just go OEM. the last one lasted about 7 years.
Thanks! One challenge I had is that the plastic stands into which the 2 screws that hold the handle go were partially cracked, and one cracked even more when I removed the handle. I had to use epoxy and a small cable clamp to establish a secure base. So, heads up to anyone doing this that the plastic can be pretty brittle after all these years, so be gentle when working on it. I cracked another part during re-assembly.
Looks like this needs re-engineered with a plasma cutter to add an access port 8"x11". There are few problems a plama cutter cannot solve. Great Video thanks for posting.
At about when you describe reinstalling the panel into the liftgate-how do you fit the latch back into the hole? When I tried to do that it put too much pressure on the abs receptacles (that the 2 phillips screws go into), and one of them broke off.
How to Automotive I ask him why he changed the water pump I did the flushing and when the car heats it stays in 214 and the most that to rise is to 219 to 221
Is it possible to change a Sequoia door that came originally with the vehicle without a spoiler to the one that has a spoiler.I have been looking for somebody to help me know if this is possible.
Helpful video but skips too many important steps. Like after connecting cable it would have been helpful to know the best way of getting the latch back through the hole. I tried and the plastic rim at the end of the cable broke. Now I have to replace the whole cable. Thanks for the help anyways. A little frustrated though.
@@erinlemberg9344 I did. There really isnt any disassembly for it. The nut that you take off just allows for it to be push aside. It holds the "key hole lock" in place. Just undo it.....do your business and remount it in the reverse order.

Do u have a video on replacing the rear lift gate actuator Lock assembly?
At about when you describe reinstalling the panel into the liftgate-how do you fit the latch back into the hole? When I tried to do that it put too much pressure on the abs receptacles (that the 2 phillips screws go into), and one of them broke off.
You can also pull the handle cable with a slim Jim type/ wire hook device through the window slot up top and open the door.
Worked great. Thanks!
whats likelihood that cord just came off? mine just started jingling today..
It’s a possibility.

GREGGS TECH can’t think of anything that would prevent it from swapping out. But I’ve never done it
@@HowtoAutomotive Thanks really appreciate it.
you bet, thanks for the reply
At 3.50 minutes,what name is that panel that you popped out called.
GREGGS TECH i’m not sure what the technical name of it is but I would collect it The license plate panel

There is a hack where a guy grinds parts around the latch pin that is suppose to be the end all.
You didn't address the reassembly of the lock cylinder. Can you explain what needs to be done there?
did you find a solution to this ? i am stuck with this too..

God forbid you edit / correct your inaudible video before you upload it.
