12 RG COLORADO DUAL CAB CENTRAL LOCKING WIRING INSTRUCTIONS Part no s: C40C, 210mm 190mm Measure 190 mm towards the centre from the top inside edge of tub and 210 mm down from top as shown above. At this point drill a 25 mm hole using a holesaw to go through the tubliner and the metal support behind as well only. Making sure the rear seat is folded down using a 10mm drill bit, drill in the centre of the hole made previously, drill right through the cab of the Ute and inner plastic trim. On the inner liner where you have drilled through with your 10mm drill bit, now drill a hole with a 25mm holesaw. Take off black cable release handle,10 mm nut and the 15 mm nut with washer. Leave the last washer and nut as is. The cable release will already be assembled as above. Page 12 of 20

13 With the nut and washer in position feed the cable through the body making sure it comes out in the interior of the Ute cab. As seen on the left now place a washer first through the cable followed by a gold 15mm nut, tighten the nut with a 15mm ratchet. Make sure the plastic trim is not obstructing the cable release. Finally tighten the 10mm gold nut on the end of the cable release followed by the black handle. Once the black handle is tightened all the way turn the 10mm gold nut tightened previously behind the handle anti-clockwise until it meets up with the inner tip of the black handle. Make sure the handle securely tightened. At this time it is best to engage the lock on the lid by pushing the lock lever up so it goes into lock position. Then pull on the cable release from inside the cab to ensure that the lock opens manually. Page 13 of 20

14 Locate the end of the supplied central locking harness fitted with a 3-way connector. From the battery, feed this end of the harness across the rear of the engine bay and down underneath the vehicle, leave for now. Make sure the harness is secured every 300mm and free from heat danger or moving parts. Connect the red wire to the positive battery terminal and the black wire to the negative battery terminal. Note: It is recommended to leave the black wire disconnected until after the harness fitment is complete. Page 14 of 20

15 Route the harness along the top of the right hand side chassis rail and secure with cable ties (1) every 300mm. Make sure the harness will not be affected by high temperatures and keep it away from any moving parts. Route the harness up at the front face of the tub and through the previously drilled hole. To achieve this, a guide wire (2) or something similar must be fed down through the hole in the tub. Fix the end of the central locking harness to the guide wire with tape or similar and pull the harness up through the hole with the guide wire. Remove the harness from the guide wire and seat the harness grommet into the hole in the tub metalwork. Connect the central locking harness (3) to the mating ute lid harness connector (4). Locate the floorpan grommet (5) underneath the right hand side of the floor pan, almost directly below the drivers feet. Pierce a hole in the grommet and feed the two wire part of the harness up through the grommet. Be sure to seal around the wire hole in the grommet with a suitable sealant and secure the harness where necessary. Page 15 of 20

16 6 7 Remove foam tape to access wires. Note: Use thinner brown & yellow wire Remove the driver s side front kick panel (6) and scuff plate (7). Locate the white connector which is one of three behind the kick panel and will be tucked into the body. From the rear side of this connector find the brown wire with a yellow trace and the grey wire. Note: There will be two brown with yellow trace wires. Connect the thinner wire of the two. Locate the green wire on the central locking harness and join to the brown with yellow trace wire using the supplied scotch clamp splices and spade connectors. The scotch clamp splices need to be lightly squeezed together with pliers. Repeat this to join the brown with black trace to the grey wire of the body harness. Coil up any excess wire of the central locking harness and locate in kick panel area. Re-Fit the drivers side kick panel and scuff plate. Connect black wire of central locking harness to the battery negative terminal (if not connected). Page 16 of 20

17 Align the center hole of the latch with the top of the center of the tailgate, making sure the bottom of the latch is facing down. With the self drilling screw provided gently screw through so it is still able to move up and down. With the lid open now close the tailgate. Climb into the tub with a torch light and Phillips head screw driver, with the aid of another person now bring the lid down slowly. Once the lid lock catches the latch and is aligned, tighten the self drilling screw all the way and ask the other person to open the lock by pressing the open button on the factory key. If the lock from the lid is not matching correctly it is wise to open the black cover of the central locking unit and loosen the lock unit by opening the 6 screws half way and adjusting the lock to meet the latch on the tailgate to get the best result. Retighten the screws and replace the black cover making sure all wires are not obstructed. Hard Lid light switch located on Lock Unit. Page 17 of 20
