How do you replace a Toyota Tacomas window crank handle?
  • First, search for parts by the year and model of your Toyota Tacoma. The handle will have to fit on a manual window crank as these handles will not work for electric windows.
  • Begin by ensuring that the car or truck is parked and the windows are all the way up. Take note of the position that the old window lever is in when the window is completely up.
  • Using needle nose pliers, gently remove the old crank from the car door. It is likely that there will be a clip attaching the hand crank to the door. Once the old clip and the hand crank are removed, the crankshaft will be exposed.
  • Note the position of the clip on the new replacement lever. The clip should be able to latch on to the cranks nub and will lock into place. Push the clip in and ensure that it is firmly secured to the door.
  • Attach the new handles clip in the same manner that you removed the old one. The clip in the new handle should lock into the same position that the old handle was in. Be sure to test out the handle lever and ensure that the window smoothly opens and closes.
