Troubleshooting

Tailgate still not functioning after repair

Double-check all crimped connections for security and proper electrical contact. Ensure the new cable is not kinked or strained. Verify compatibility with your specific vehicle model and year.

Crimp connectors not holding securely

Use an appropriate crimping tool designed for automotive electrical connectors. Ensure the wires are stripped to the correct length and inserted fully into the connector before crimping firmly.

Protective bellows do not fit properly

Ensure the correct bellows are being used and that they are oriented properly over the crimped connection. Sometimes gentle manipulation or heating may be required, but avoid damaging the connection.
