Problem
Broken handle.
Tools
Putty knife, #2 phillips screwdriver.
Repair & Advice
Use the putty knife to separate the inner door liner from the door frame and expose the mounting hardware for the handle. Two phillips screws secure the handle. You have to reuse those screws for the new handle, as new hardware is not included with the replacement. Don’t damage or lose them. (Use a quality undamaged screwdriver.) Start each screw and then align the handle before you tighten both. Work carefully, as you are cutting new threads in the handle with those screws. Snap the liner back in place. Done.
Take your time. This is an expensive yet fragile part.
