Replacement of Tesla Model S Door Handle Paddle Gears

Welcome back to another blog post about the Tesla Model S door handles! In my previous post, I discussed the temporary solution for the non-presenting doors and promised to show you the permanent solution. Well, here I am back as promised to guide you through the process.

To start off, you will need a few tools to complete this task. Make sure you have a flathead screwdriver, a wrench or socket with a 10-millimeter size, a T30 Torx male side screw, and a plastic pry tool to avoid scratching your panels. If you don’t have a plastic pry tool, you can use a screwdriver but be cautious to prevent any damage.

First, you’ll need to remove the plastic panel and rubber piece to access the bolts and screws holding the door handle in place. Use the appropriate tools to loosen and remove these fasteners, being careful not to scratch the door handle in the process. Once the door handle is free, disconnect the electrical wires before proceeding.

Next, you’ll need to replace the broken metal piece inside the door handle. This may require some hammering and prying to remove the old piece and install the new one. Make sure everything is securely in place before reattaching the door handle and testing its functionality.

In some cases, you may encounter different types of door handles with varying components. It’s essential to understand the differences and handle each one accordingly to ensure a successful repair.

As you work through each door handle, pay attention to any missing screws or components that may indicate previous repairs or issues. It’s crucial to address these issues promptly to prevent further damage or malfunctions.

Overall, replacing the door handles on a Tesla Model S can be a challenging task, but with the right tools and knowledge, you can successfully complete the repair. Remember to test the door handle’s functionality before reassembling everything to ensure everything is working correctly.

In conclusion, tackling the door handle issue on your Tesla Model S may require some patience and skill, but with the proper tools and techniques, you can achieve a permanent solution. Stay tuned for more tips and tricks on maintaining and repairing your Tesla vehicle. Happy repairing!
