Dealership wanted $250 to replace this. So you saved me some $$. But more importantly to me, as a 50 yr old widow whose husband used to do all car stuff, your video proved to me (and my daughters) that I can do stuff even if I think it sounds hard. Big thanks to you!!!
I just finished replacing my 2013 driver door handle, thanks to you. You saved me $$, and gave me a sense of accomplishment! I am a wife and mother and grandmother. :). Thank you!
Hey there... inside door handle just snapped on me.. looked on here an found this video.. Where do I get the part? Order online somewhere, or from a dealer, or?
I ordered from Amazon. Check my link down below in the description box if you want to support me. It’s free to use. If it’s not there once you search, then another one should pop up! Thanks for asking.
Thank you for your help. We paid $242.00 to have the passenger door handle replaced a few months ago at a dealer. I was so angry when the driver door handle broke too. We ordered the replacement part online and installed it ourselves. Thank you for your video, you saved us so much money and time.Take care 😘
Dealership was trying to charge me 176$ to fix it, after watching this video I’ll end up paying 20$ just for the part and doing it myself, thanks for taking your time and posting a video to help others to save some money ‼️
Just wanted to say thank you so much for your very easy to follow video on replacing my door handle. My nephew and I, just did it in 15 minutes and it cost me $16 instead of $316 the dealer wanted . It worked great. 😅
Thank you! This saved me $300 by doing myself. Cant believe the Nissan dealership is so greedy. Be sure to check to make sure the handle and lock work before putting the door back on. Also I did this without unhooking the mirror behind the door and light at the bottom. You can get the handle off and on with those still hooked up. Also when putting the door back on there is small white latch at the top on mirror side that the door has to slide behind that to get it to fit right at the top. You can do it!
Thank you so much for this video! I rode around for two months with a broken handle, thinking I could not replace it myself, but after watching your video I ordered the handle and repaired my door in under an hour! And for only 20 bucks!! Thanks for saving me time and money 🙏👏👏
That is so awesome to hear! I’m so excited that it was able to help you and you were able to do it. I think just about anyone can tackle this job! Thanks for your awesome comment.
Thanks for the video. I have been driving my 2013 Altima (my gas saver back and forth to work) for 6 months now with a broken driver side door handle, just being lazy or what ever excuse lol.
Very nice. I have to take this door trim piece off to see why my mirror control won't work, and I have the rear inside door handle that won't work. Gonna do them today. This will help. Thanks, Tom
Ronnie, I love to see videos like this! I check youtube out all the time when I have to fix my washer or any other appliance that I don't want to call a service man in for. I'm sure you helped alot of people with this video! Thanks for sharing!
I do the same thing. I have fixed a ton of stuff through the years. Matter of fact that is the main reason why I used to use UA-cam for. Before that it was forums 👍
Love it Ronnie! You and my husband can fix anything! I love that you guys will fix parts on your vehicles rather than taking it in somewhere and paying 3x or 4x the price. It's outrageous what they charge! Glad you were able to fix it :) Have a blessed day ---Stacy 😍❤
I have always loved taking things apart to fix it. This plays right into that plus I'm cheap when it comes to things of that nature. If I can fix it or make it I would rather do than 😂
Southern Food Junkie - I hear ya, you and my husband Tim are definitely cut from the same cloth! He'd much rather do things himself, partly because of cost, but mostly because he enjoys it, and he always does a better job on something of his or ours than anyone you can pay to do it, they don't care as much and don't have as much invested in it! Have a good day Ronnie!
Awesome video! We fixed it ourselves and my husband doesn't like attempting to fix anything because he's afraid he'll "mess it up". One suggestion: At 3:54, if you can have a clip of how to attach the lock wire, that would've saved us a couple minutes. 😃
Word for word what it takes to replace this part. Took almost the exact time you said to do it also. Pretty easy job don't pay a mechanic for this. Part got to my house from Amazon in one day and installed it at least in 30 min, maybe less. Also works on similar years. Mine is a 2013.
Thanks guys. BTW got you box today. Already made the video! I loved them all especially those meat sticks. The jelly jar was busted though but I was still able to taste it! Thanks again for sending that out.
Thanks for the very straight forward step by step instructions in this video. Worked like a charm!!👌 Any idea how much this would've cost me at a dealer or body shop?
I have this same problem. I feel like a freebaser rolling down my window and reaching out to open my door. I ordered a replacement online for about $12, free delivery.
I didn't show it but I explained it in the video. Also you can watch me install it back in to learn how to take it out. But to explain it, you have to use a small screwdriver to pop that black cover piece off that is behind the handle. Then there is one screw that holds the handle on. Once you take the screw out, the door handle will pop out and you will have to unhook the wires from it. Then it is just the reverse to install it. See it that helps. It is really simple and quick.

You are welcome. It’s very easy so give it a try! The handle is only 15-20 bucks on amazon!
Thank you for the detailed explanation. It took me 15min taking my time to make sure I don't brake any of the plastics I had to remove.
Thanks and you are welcome 🙏

I’ve never had to change one in it before. Sorry about that.
If I needed this info... I am glad to know its out there... TFS
Same here. There wasn't really one out there on this model car so I put it out there. Pretty simple to do.
@@SouthernFoodJunkie just wanted to say thank you. Just fixed my door handle in my 2014 nissan altima.

Thanks for the very straight forward step by step instructions in this video. Worked like a charm!!👌 Any idea how much this would've cost me at a dealer or body shop?
Your welcome. Probably about 150-200.
Great video! That would have been so expensive if you took it in to a dealership for repair. Supporting you👍🏼
You got that right! Thanks
This is a great DIY video!!!💯💯
Thanks! I truly appreciate it.

Where are you located? I'm in need of help replacing the inside lock on the left driver door.
I am in SC but I don't work on cars for people. Just a hobby of mine. I hope you get it fixed!
You are the freakin MAN!
Thanks 🙏
Nice thanks for sharing
THANKS GUYS. I hope you are doing well!
Good job!
Thanks Chris!
I have this same problem. I feel like a freebaser rolling down my window and reaching out to open my door. I ordered a replacement online for about $12, free delivery.
Lol I had that same feeling! It’s worth 12 bucks to fix it, am I right? Thanks for your comment!
Will this work for the back rear passenger side?
I’m not 100% sure on that as I hadn’t crossed reference the numbers. It is possible.
Awesome thanks
Anytime 👊
can’t wait to try it on mine both of my doors broke just to prove how bad the nissans handlesare
Yes. Cheap plastic! I hope this helps! Have a good one.
What size is the tools used to insure the bolts?
I’m sorry, what does insure the bolts mean?
It seems like the socket was a 10 mm if that is what you’re meaning.
Thanks bud!
Anytime 😁
Where did you order the pieces and what pieces did you need?
I just ordered them off of Amazon. Still working fine. No issues at all.
Is is the link to the one I got amzn.to/3enE2kZ
How did you get the handle out though? We got the door off but you started the video with it already out.
I didn't show it but I explained it in the video. Also you can watch me install it back in to learn how to take it out. But to explain it, you have to use a small screwdriver to pop that black cover piece off that is behind the handle. Then there is one screw that holds the handle on. Once you take the screw out, the door handle will pop out and you will have to unhook the wires from it. Then it is just the reverse to install it. See it that helps. It is really simple and quick.
Many thanks
You are very welcome 👍
Where did you order the new part from?
I got mine from Amazon. Here is the link
amzn.to/2YZ1UWA.
Where you buy,Amazon?
Yeah check out my link in the description.
how to fix if i cant even open the door from outside or inside?
Yeah you will have to be able to get the door open.
