I have a 2014 Ram 1500 Quad Cab.
The driver's door lock actuator has gone bad.
I tried to replace it yesterday, but couldn't figure out how to remove the old one. Have any of you done this?
The top part of the actuator clips on to a "floppy" black plastic piece that's attached to the door. (see attached photo) I can't figure out how to disconnect it.
I have to work at it through the door. It looks like the actuator might come out with the plastic vapor seal, but I can't figure out how to remove that either. I removed all the bolts on the edge of the vapor seal (there are about 10 bolts). But that thing still doesn't come out. I can't figure out what holds it in.
