FAQs

What vehicles is this kit compatible with?

This kit is compatible with FIAT and Ford vehicles. The specific OE numbers for cross-reference are FIAT: 51925658 SK, and Ford: 1 560 435 SK. Always check the compatibility of your vehicle's model and year.

What tools do I need for installation?

You'll need wire strippers, crimping tools, a multimeter, and potentially a soldering iron.

Can I solder the wires instead of crimping?

Yes, soldering is an alternative method. Solder the wires for a more secure connection, ensuring the joints are clean and protected.

What if the replacement circuits are too short?

The kit includes a 300 mm cable length, which is usually sufficient. However, if more length is needed, extend the wires using additional wiring of the same gauge.

How do I identify the faulty circuit?

Use a multimeter to test for continuity in each circuit. The faulty circuit will show no continuity. Refer to your vehicle's wiring diagrams for guidance.

Should I disconnect the battery before starting?

Yes, always disconnect the vehicle's battery before working on the wiring harness to prevent short circuits and damage to your car's electrical system.

Troubleshooting

Tailgate functions (lights, locks) are not working after installation.

Double-check all wiring connections, ensuring they are securely crimped or soldered. Verify correct circuit connections using a multimeter to test for continuity.

Specific circuits are not functioning.

Identify which circuits are not working using a multimeter. Ensure each replacement wire is connected to the correct terminal.

Poor connection or intermittent functionality.

Examine crimped connections for looseness and crimp them more securely. If soldering, ensure a strong, clean solder joint.
