Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the switch panel on this 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500. It's the same process on a large variety of GM trucks and SUVs from 2008 to 2012. The tools you'll need include a flat blade screwdriver and a 10mm socket and ratchet.
Using a flat blade screwdriver, you just want to pry off this pull handle trim panel. Now you have access to these two 10mm bolts, you just want to go ahead and remove those. You want to pry up that switch panel and just disconnect these harnesses. Just push in the tab on the top and pull back on them. For this lead, there's a tab on the back of it. You just want to pry out that tab, and then the clip will actually pull up and out.
To remove the switches from this panel, there's four tabs around the switches, and you want to just pry out those tabs with a flat blade screwdriver, and that will release it.
Old part's on the right, with the new part from 1A Auto on the left. You can see they're identical, and they'll fit in exactly the same. Push your new set of switches down into the panel. You just want to reconnect those harnesses.
Then you just want to make sure your harnesses are pushed in there, and push the switch panel right down. Then we'll fast-forward as he puts that pull handle back into place, replaces the two 10mm bolts and the trim panel.
