2 Answers
Steps to remove the door of the Buick Excelle: 1. First, remove the panel of the window regulator, which is usually fixed with clips. Pry it out slowly; 2. Disconnect the control wires, then remove the adjacent fixing screws and take off the door handle; 3. Pry off the fixed panel of the door switch. The door panel is secured with clips, so there are clips around the edges. Pry it open slowly, then disconnect the wiring connector on the interior panel. The Buick Excelle is a compact car under SAIC-GM Buick, with a length, width, and height of 4609 mm, 1798 mm, and 1464 mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2640 mm. In terms of power, the Excelle is equipped with a naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 113 hp and a maximum power of 83 kW.
I've taken apart the door of a Buick Excelle before, it's quite simple and can be done at home. First, prepare the tools—a plastic pry bar and a small screwdriver are enough; avoid using metal ones to prevent scratching the paint. Locate the storage compartment on the door edge, where small screws are often hidden underneath. After unscrewing them, gently pry open the panel from the corner with the pry bar. Be careful with the plastic clips—don't pull too hard, or they might break. Then, disconnect the electric window or lock connector by pressing it lightly to release. The whole process takes about 20 minutes. The first time I did it, I forgot to mark the connector positions and ended up mixing them up when reassembling, so I recommend taking photos for reference. When putting it back, align the clips until you hear a click. Remember to disconnect the battery to avoid short circuits—safety first. If you're a beginner, you can look up tutorials for your specific model online for a more secure approach.
