Exterior Door Handle - Replacement
1. Remove the trim from the handle by prying it out with a small screwdriver.
2. Remove the handle screw and Belleville washer. The second fastening screw is located at the end of the door and is closed with a rubber seal (pic. R:12). Remove the screw and spring washer and remove the door handle (pic. R:13).
