    Brian, you are my hero! My exterior handle broke on my accent and we both have 2004's so this video was especially helpful (: I ordered a replacement off of ebay for $9.70 and I went to town. Got stuck on the part where I needed to get the second screw off the handle. Watched your video and saw that I needed to take the whole latch off. Wouldn't of figured that out on my own. After that, it went smooth and got it fixed. Thank you so much for making this! Gave it a well deserved like!

    Great Job, must be difficult to do filming, explaining and doing all the complicated work at the same time. I admire your ability. Thanks.

    Thank you! I have just repaired ,my 2002 Hyundai accent front passenger side door handle with your instructions.

    THANK YOU so much for this. This is an instance of the usefulness of the internet at it's finest. I'm not much of a car guy but I was able to install a new driver side handle with the help of this, otherwise it would of been a few hundred out the window probably. No way I would have gotten through all these in's and outs without this even though it really is pretty simple once you get into it.
    Just a note for the driver side door you don't need an impact driver or any fancy tools. Just a Phillips head, some other thing I don't know the name of, and maybe a wrench. The access point is different, though you do need to take off some plastic they covered to access the door handle bolt. I still have to get the inside panel on which is a little trickier than the back it seems, but hopefully with a bit of maneuvering I can finish and get out the door. Thanks again!

    Hi Brian, i was stuck on removing the internal door handle so I could take off the door trim, after searching so many videos yours was the one that gave the answer almost immediately, of course I felt stupid once I saw how easy it was (push forward and pull out) anyway thanks for sharing!

    Hey! I too had a broken door with the child lock engaged. I opened it with a flexible plastic putty knife from the inside, much like how you would open a locked door with a credit card. I kept wiggling it up and down til it moved the child lock into open position. I video taped myself doing it. I'll post it soon.

  • @sailorsea7190
    @sailorsea7190 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I had the same problem on a friend's car (broken outside handle and child lock engaged). I used a piece of plastic (old vinyl vertical blind, plastic bottle, etc.) cut about 8 "long, 1" wide and a notch cut about 1/2 from the end. I stuck it in between the door & frame from the inside as far as it would go, used a sawing motion to move it down until the notch caught the child lock and then pulled gently and it unlocked the child lock.

    Theres a real easy way to open the rear doors when the handles break and the child door locks are engaged.I found out yesterday.Take a flat head screwdriver to the outside handle and on the bottom rear corner where the metal meets the handle plastic gently pry it with one hand.With your other hand,take a straightened out wire hanger with an L shape (about half inch L) and slide it through the lifted area and push up in that area.It will unlock very quickly.

    • @TheTucsonBG
      @TheTucsonBG  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Col. Angus I'm glad that worked for you! The rear seat cushion obstructed the access too much and I did not want to remove the cushion. Perhaps that would have been easier than cutting through the plastic handle. Blessings on your day.

    Damn... that looks complicated.
    I have a 2005 Accent and my front passenger door won't unlock, not by the key nor from interior from door knob. So I am unable to open the door.
    I have power windows so things should be slightly easier but that's all I got. I have lowered the windows and took a peek between the glass and door (out)side to check the mechanisms. It seems the lock itself it's functional, when I insert the key I can turn it clockwise (towards car front) but this is the lock procedure. The key comes back to "neutral"position by itself too. But when I try to turn it the other way to unlock it, it won't move. It seems there is rod going somewhere straight below but I cannot see more of it or why it won't budge.
    So bottom line, is there a way to open the door or at least to remove the interior door panel to get a look to the door latch??

    Awesome video. This must be a common problem on Accents. Mine broke about a year ago (before you posted this video), and I am finally going to try to tackle it this summer when the weather is nicer. One question, though. I have manual locks and windows. Do you think the lever mechanism for manual windows would complicate the process any? Anybody out there tried to do this with manual windows?

    • @sailorsea7190
      @sailorsea7190 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      The challenge with a manual window is getting the window crank off. I was replacing the outside handle on a friend's car, couldn't get the window crank off and took it to a nearby auto window repair facility and gave them $5 to take it off.

    • @nathenhutchison6182
      @nathenhutchison6182 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sailor Sea Yeah, I found another video showing how to take the window crank off for a '97 Accent. It's the same procedure for a 2004. It wasn't too bad, but I never would have figured it out on my own without knowing how it is held together inside. It is pretty much a blind disassembly getting that clip off.
      The part that is giving me fits is installing the new door handle. I am doing a front door instead of a rear door, so I also have to contend with the key locking mechanism. You wouldn't think that would make it harder, but the locking mechanism is held in place by the same bolt that holds the door handle to the frame of the door. You have to line up those three holes and thread the bolt, and there is no room to work and you can't see anything that you're doing. The hole for the locking mechanism sits down inside this little cup so that you can't get your fingers in there to thread the bolt and there is a bracket that is part of the door frame that runs right in front of the holes so that you can't use a socket to put it in. It is giving me fits. I finally ran out of daylight and had to admit defeat for today. I may have to do like the guy in this video did and take some more things apart to make room to work. I was hoping I could get by without doing that. Frustrating, and I thought I was almost done.

    Do you happen to have a link for the company you purchased that handle from? I gotta get a custom color and I wanted to know if they might have it. I got a gunmetal/gray color one from Amazon.com

    • @sailorsea7190
      @sailorsea7190 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      All of the after market parts I have seen are black. The local Hyundai dealer quoted $75 to paint it to match the car with them doing the handle replacement for an additional $250. I bought a new handle on eBay for $8 and spray painted it myself with a can of high quality plastic paint.

    HI guys, I own a Hyundai I20 ... the rear door would not open from the outside and the kiddy lock was on .... Problem !
    Easy to fix ... used a torch to find the problem ....1 wind the window down. 2 shine torch down between the glass facing the outside and the inside of the outer door skin or panel . 3 Noticed that the rod that opens the lock, bent at 90 degs towards the rear of the car had popped off the door handle lever.
    made a tool ...
    4, Used 8 mm aluminum round bar, 400mm long, first drill a 6 mm hole near the one end, then bend the rod 45 degs , so that the hole through the rod is in the same direction as the bend.
    5 slide the rod down towards the opening rod . 6 push past then draw back over the bit that is bent back towards the rear of the door. 7 once hooked on , push gently down applying pressure towards the front of the car so that it does not slip off.
    8 the door will open. once open turn the kiddy lock off first. 9 The door can be opened from the inside of the car until you find the time to remove the inner door panel and rectify the problem ... either pop the blue clip back on or replace the door handle broken.
    Simple and easy . mail me at pietermagl @gmail.com will send you a pic of the tool.

    Mine broke just where you said they normally do. So I take it there is no way to get the door latch rod out of the yellow clip without destroying it and buying a new one. I wish you would have shown how to put the rod through the new (white) retaining rod clip. I guess you just pushed it through. May the Lord punish all designers of automobiles. Thanks.

    • @TheTucsonBG
      @TheTucsonBG  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Did you get everything back together? The rod retaining clips have a hole where the rod passes through and an arm that rotates and 'snaps' to the rod. Does that make sense?
