My 2006 lincoln navigator windows, mirror or door locks won't work

I would guess the problem would be located with the drivers door harness. All of these items are controlled from the same place, remove door panel and check harness connectors for tightness and water damage.

How do I remove the driver side interior door panel on a 2003 Lincoln Navigator/

You don't need to remove the panel. Just spray the latch on the outside with the door open. I would use liquid wrench and open & close the door at least 20 times after it's soaked for a half hour. Don't be afraid to slam it. Also, one time I had to let it soak in overnight before opening/closing it multiple times again.

Replacing 2003 zx2 driver side power mirror.

Its "doable" but I wouldn't advise you to do it that way. Get a phillips screwdriver to unscrew the elbow pad & any other screws holding the door panel on. Disconnect the pwr window switches & any other switches on the panel. On the lower end of the door panel there are plastic clips holding the panel to the door. POP them out of the door & remove the panel. disconnect the mirror electrical connector & disconnect the mirror body itself. Install the new one & don't forget to connect all of the electrical connectors & reinstall the panel. Good luck

Replacing passenger side mirror

If you are replacing the entire mirror assembly you have to remove the door panel.

First remove the switch plate by prying upward at the rear of the switch plate and unhook the connectors. Then remove the two armrest screws. The door panel then has to be pryed away from the door to release the clips. They don't give up easily so yo may have to force it a bit. Once the clips are loose pull up on the panel to remove it from the window reveal molding. The mirror is held on with three 10mm nuts. remove those and unhook the wiring from in the door. Install is reverse of removal.

Good Luck
