In this short guide, we will see the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and remove the door lock actuator of the front door of the Ford Ranger. First, we open the front door and start removing the plastic cover of the handle by prying on the sides; then we disconnect the two electrical connectors of the switch panel that we find below, as shown in the video.

At this point, we unscrew the screws of the door panel to detach and remove it; we unscrew the screws of the lock actuator module, disconnecting the cable to replace it with the new one.
