All About Toyota Door Handles FAQ

Door Handles 101

What the door handles on your Toyota do is obvious. Less apparent is what they can be made from: durable materials like metal or plastic, usually, since these are more capable of withstanding the wear-and-tear that comes from repeated use. How a door handle works is simple enough to be just as evident; it attaches to a metal rod that connects to your door latch, and when you pull the handle, the rod and door latch move in reaction, allowing you to pull the door away from the door frame.

How to Tell if a Door Handle is Failing

You'll notice things like the exterior handle detaching from the door, or the connection to the rod or latch failing. Fortunately, replacing a door handle isn't a tough task -- as long you take your time and use the right tools.

How to Change a Toyota Door Handle

The process is generally the same for both interior and exterior door handles, though some parts may vary. Here's what to do:

• Start by removing any hardware that's holding the door handle in place.
• Disconnect any locks and wires.
• Remove the old door handle.
• Add gaskets to form a protective seal around the mechanism.
• Place the new handle.
• Reconnect the wires and locks.
• Put the hardware back in place.
• Try out the door handle to ensure it's working right.

Keep in mind that these are general steps. Always check your owner's manual for the instructions that apply to your specific Toyota model. If you need help, you're welcome to contact a Toyota dealer to schedule a service appointment.
