  Q: How to remove and refit the Tailgate Lock, lock barrel, and lock actuator on a Toyota Echo?

  A:

  Pull the lock out of the tailgate; to do so the inner trim panel should be dismantled by taking off 8 push in clips then the three lock securing screw should be unscrewed. On refitting do the reverse and check the lock mechanism is okay before refitting the tailgate trim panel. Next to demount the lock barrel, first, take out the lock in the aforementioned manner; withdraw the bolt holding the lock barrel assembly to the tailgate, rotate it to unlock it and if you are dealing with a lock barrel having the actuator lever, unclasp the assembly from the lever; also, in the same lock barrel, there is a large circlip that needs to be released in order to pull out the pushbutton spring and The options of the lock barrel trim include the possibility of its removal from the outer end of the tailgate. For refitting, ensure that the lock barrel is fully turned in position in relation to the body and it secures in position, and the actuator lever is fully located and that the operation of the lock mechanism should be checked before fitting back the tail gate trim panel. To do this, one has to open the tailgate then twist the quarter panel trim and take the inner trim panel out Next remove the two bolts that fix the actuator to the tailgate Then there is the actuator lever that must be unplugged from the lock barrel And then remove the wiring plug and the lock actuator. When refitting execute the process the following way in the reverse order and ensure that the mechanism works properly by hindering the tailgate trim panel.
