To fix the rear door handle assembly on a 2005 Chevy Express cargo van, first, remove the interior door panel by unscrewing any visible screws and gently prying it off. Once the panel is off, locate the handle assembly and check for any broken parts or loose connections. Replace any damaged components or reattach loose parts as needed, then reassemble the door by replacing the panel and screws. Test the handle to ensure it operates smoothly before finalizing the repair.
You will have to remove the entire door panel to get at the screws that hold the handle assembly to the panel.
It is not too hard. You will have to remove the door panel, then you will see how the interior handle is riveted to the metal door frame work. You will need to drill these rivets out and install the new handle with either rivets or screws.
