Part # LK350

STEP 1: Install PowerGate™

With the tailgate open, remove the screws from the tailgate access panel using a Torx T-30 driver. Remove the
10mm nut that holds the handle assembly. Insert PowerGate lock through the tailgate opening and over stud on
right side of handle assembly . Replace 10mm nut and tighten. Slide stainless steel bolt with your fi ngers to see that
there is no interference and that the bolt locks handle. Adjust if necessary.

STEP 2: Route Wire Harness & Relay Loom Wires

Route the short wire harness through the drain hole in the bottom of tailgate and connect it to PowerGate. Plug the
long wire harness to the short wire harness. Route the long wire harness underneath the driver’s side of the truck
to the fi rewall.

Using the Relay Loom on the drivers side of the engine compartment thread the purple and gray wire loom
through the fi re wall of the truck. (Try to follow OEM wire routes whenever possible.)

STEP 3: Locate and Connect Wires

Run the wires under the dash and across to the passenger’s side of the truck.

Carefully remove the passengers’ side kick panel and fi nd the wire harness with the pink w/ black and pink

Install one blue wire tap on each of the two wires as indicated above. Plug the purple and gray wires to the wire
taps. Return to the engine compartment and plug the long wire harness from the PowerGate unit to the Relay loom
with the green and blue wires. (Testing will be done later to insure appropriate connections)

Inside the engine compartment locate the positive post next to the fuse panel on the fender well. Open the cap for
the positive post, remove the nut and slip the red wire with the fuse holder on that post. Re-install the nut and close
the cap. Find the ground-wire bolt on the driver side fender well and remove it. Install the black wire to the ground­wire bolt and make sure you get all of the black ground wires that were there when you started, re-install the bolt.

Return to the cab and make sure the door locks and tailgate lock work. Test the lock by locking and unlocking
your power door locks. If the lock/unlock direction of the PowerGate does not correspond with the direction of
your door locks then switch the purple and gray loom wires where they are attached to the door lock wires and
test again.

STEP 4: Secure the Wires

Install tailgate access panel. Secure all wires with wire ties provided so that there are no loose, dangling ends.
