I believe, if its like my GMC Jimmy, that the latch is connected to the vent window and has to be replaced as a whole assembly. I recently broke my vent window and got one from the local junk-yard, complete with latch. Now my problem is drilling out the rivets that hold the latch to the frame under the inside plastic, and the rivets that attach the front side (leading edge) under the weather-stripping to the inside of the door jamb.
remove the door panel, window regulator, and window track. lock solenoid should now be accessable You will have to replace the latch, the solenoid is part of the door latch.
Pull the door panel off, remove the door latch assembly from inside the door, and replace the switch which is hold onto the latch with one screw on the backside of the latch.
Very simple fix. Just remove the two screws you see on the latch. That will remove it from the top. Replace with the new one and you're good to go.
knock out the rollpin located inside on bottom of latch then it just falls apart..
where your latch is broken at you can use a pair of pliers and pull the exposed cable wire and it should open best thing when u open it replace the cable wire
glue hatch window latch
ITS NOT EASY. MY EXPERENCE IS THAT YOU WILL ALMOST HAVE TO GUT THE DOOR. LOWER THE WINDOW REMOVE THE DOOR PANEL ( DISCONECT WIRING ) AND SET TO THE SIDE REMOVE SCREWS FROM METAL DOOR PANEL AND MINIPULATE IT OUT OF THE WINDOW TRACK (GOOD LUCK) REMOVE THE THREE TORX LATCH SCREWS FROM THE DOOR FACE (THEY HOLD THE LATCH IN THE DOOR) REMOVE THE TWO BOLTS THAT HOLD THE DOOR HANDEL IN PLACE (ONE INSIDE, ONE OUT) PRY CONECTING RODS OUT OF THEIR CLIPS (AGAIN GOOD LUCK) WITH ALL CONPONENTS LOSE YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE LATCH A NEW LATCH IS ABOUT $60.00 BUCKS AND WILL HAVE NEW ROD CLIPS WITH IT, DEALER ITEM ONLY PLAN ONE BREAKING SOME OF YOUR PLASTIC DOOR PANEL STUDS SO PURSCHASE A FEW OF THEM WHEN YOU GET THE LATCH, THEY ALSO ARE DEALER ONLY
Remove door panel and replace latch mechanism
Depending upon the specific casement window the latch is mounted on the inside of the stationary side of the window/window frame. Some are riveted, some are secured by screws, if it is the later then you can remove the screws and loosen the latch (there may be several layers of paint, scratch away at the paint to see if it is either a screw/bolt head or a rivet.) See the links for a company, I like, for spare window parts.....
(1) Open the liftgate. (2) Remove the trim cover and latch mounting screws. (3) disconnect the actuating rod - detach electrical connectors (if any) - then remove latch from liftgate. Installation is the reverse of removal.
You remove it from the door and find exactly which part is broken,replace that part.
Start by removing the inner panel of the door after loosening the screws holding it. For non-power windows , take out the window handle and you should be able to see the latch. Unscrew the bolts holding it and remove.
