Honda CRZ Door Handle Replacement! 2011-2016

Рет қаралды 57,503

5 жыл бұрын

Hey guys!
Finally decided on fixing the CRZ door handle. Thanks to UBANTE Garage for making a guide video. Hoping to add another perspective of the replacement process.
What you will need (What I used):
-LEFT (driver side door handle.)
ebay.to/330YiUD
- Phillips or JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) Screwdriver.
- Plastic clip removal tool.
- Flathead Screwdriver.
- 5mm Allen key
- 10mm socket + wrench or impact gun.
-PATIENCE!
Tips:
- The red clip is a pain in the ass, get a light in there.
- The rail is a guide for the window when it goes down. Make sure plastic
- Be careful with the trimming, clips are very delicate and will break!
- Make sure the window is rolled up after you manage to take the panel off.
- The screws will strip if you do not apply enough force on them. Spray some wd-40 and break them carefully.

For someone this might help: I bought a crz that had the issue with broken door handle on the driver side door. I looked at buying a new door lock replacement but it would cost me approximately NZD300 to just get the part. I am an engineering student so I thought to myself why can't I come up with my one solution for this. What i did was to get a linear actuator for car doors from my local electronics shop and hooked that up with a remote relay so I can open the door latch with the remote. Then I installed this Linear actuator inside the door so that it is actually pulled on the door latch from inside so that the door opens. Now I have a tiny remote for the remote relay along with my actual car key that I press when I want to open the door. This is kind of an safety feature too in a way haha

Okay thanks alot for this guide! Together with the other two guides on KZfaq I could replace the handle. Some steps are missing in this guide but please people: use your common sense and it is doable! The hardest parts for me: getting rid of one of the Philips Screws, seperating the electrical wire from the keylockmechanism and putting the keylockmechanism back into place so that the metal thing would fit in. I have a red crz but I bought a black door handle. IT looks smashing on the cr-z. Anyway, thanks alot for this guide!!!

How would I contact you? I am refabing the non metal components of the handle assembly. I am making them out of Kevlar stranded continuous carbon fiber, so that it never weakens with heat or breaks. Mine broke a while back and I have been looking for resources to get this done. My local university has a full 3D lab. But...I need an old door handle to scan. I also need some of those small screws and the pivot pin. For some reason they were not in the box that I kept all the parts in while I was figuring this out (DRAT!)
