Replacement of Driver's Door Handle

Model: Nissan Leaf ZE0, MK 1 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Handle

On the inside, slightly open the handle to remove the protective panel where the screws are located using a screwdriver as a lever. After unscrewing the 9 mm bolt, lift the window control panel to disconnect the connectors and remove the entire inner door panel, starting to pull it from the bottom. Also disconnect the wires attached to the handle and remove the protective film. To remove the outer handle, access it from the side of the door. Once the bolt is unscrewed, you can remove the part of the outer handle where the key is inserted. To remove the rest, lift it and disconnect the wires; you could replace just the chrome part if desired. After ensuring that the parts match, retrace all steps carefully, paying attention to the wire connections, necessary fittings, and seals.
