How do you remove the window crank on a 2003 ford ranger?
There is a thin plastic cover over the window crank handle. It pops out at the large end of the crank (the bottom) and will rotate out of the way so that you can get at the torx screw. The torx screw holds the handle to the shaft. It goes through the center of the shaft. You can use a flat screwdriver to gently pry the cover away from the large end of the crank handle. No special tool is needed. Once you have the handle off remove two other screws, one at the bottom of the door panel and one in the door arm rest. Then grasp the panel at the bottom and slide up to remove. There are no snap pins holding the panel in place. It slides up and off of the door latch for removal.
