Installation of a Wiring Harness on a 2008 Chevrolet Colorado


Today we are going to be installing wiring harness part number 31165 on a 2008 Chevrolet Colorado, this harness also applies to the GMC Canyon. We are underneath the vehicle now. We are going to go ahead and point out where the wiring harness is located. You can see where the spare tire is located, directly to the left of that, at the mergining of the cross member and the frame, you can see the wiring connectors here. The first thing we want to do is go ahead and disconnect these two pieces. You can see there is a little tab here. Go ahead and push that in and pull the two connectors apart.

Ok, then next we are going to go ahead and plug our harness in line. Before we do that we are going to go ahead and put some electrical grease that came with the installation kit. You want to put some of that on both sides of the wiring harness connection ends. Now we want to go ahead and plug in the approariate connector into the one on the vehicle here.

Now we are going to want to find a suitable place to mount our converter box here. Using the zip ties that are provided, I am going to go ahead and zip tie the converter to the wiring harness here. You can then cut of the extra portion of the tabs. After that we just need to find a suitable routing point for the four pole connector. Go ahead and put on the plug cover that is included in the kit as well. This will conclude the installation of wiring harness part number 31165 on a 2008 Chevy Colorado.
