STEP 1: Install PowerGate™

Note: If your truck is equipped with an OEM manual door lock, install the PowerGate
with the OEM manual lock in the unlocked position.

With tailgate open, remove the screws from the tailgate access panel using a Torx
T-30 screwdriver. Remove the 10mm nut on the left side of the handle assembly.
In order to get the powergate in the correct position you will need to temporarily
remove the lock bar rod from the plastic rod retainer and move it aside. This will
make it possible to maneuver the powergate assembly underneath the bar. Once
the powergate is in place you can reconnect the lock bar rod into the rod retainer.
Install PowerGate lock through the tailgate opening and over stud on left side of
handle assembly. (see Fig. 1) Replace the 10mm nut and tighten. Slide the lock
bolt with your fi ngers to insure that there is no interference and that the bolt works
properly. Adjust if necessary.

STEP 2: Route the 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.)

PowerGateTM

LK370 Unit

Fig. 1

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 ground-wire 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 Wires

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