STEPS
Reconnecting Wires
1.
Feed both new switch wires down through the existing hole in the door frame to the underside of the
vehicle.
2.
Pull excess wires through the hole leaving enough wire to attach the switch to the door frame.
3.
Insert the end of the longer wire leading from the switch into the open end of the heat shrink butt
connector attached to the 4-way connector to the control box.
4.
Secure the butt connector into place using a wire crimper or similar tool.
5.
To create a new ground connection, strip back the the insulation on the shorter wire leading from the
switch, then fold the wire a few times to make it fit snug into the ring terminal.
6.
Secure the ring terminal into place using a wire crimper or similar tool.
7.
Attach the ground wire ring terminal to the vehicle using a cordless or electric drill, appropriate drill bit
and self-tapping screw.
Installing the New Switch
After wiring is complete, install the new switch and magnet.
Note:
Vertical placement of the magnet is
critical
to proper door switch operation. There must be a
minimum of six inches from the bottom of the door to the bottom edge of the magnet. The magnet
on the door must be aligned with the switch on the door frame. See figure 1.
