Chevrolet Silverado Wiring



Installation of a Trailer Connector Socket on a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado


Today on this 2006 Silverado 1500 were going to install 40975 from Hoppy, and our bracket will simply bolt on to the bottom of the bumper at this location right here. So what we need to do is pull out the wiring harness from the vehicle that is stored above the spare tire, and its got plenty of lead, you just got to pull it out. We are going to leave this alone for now, and we are going to go ahead and mount our bracket to the bumper. It comes with two self tapping screws. Okay right now we will take our wiring harness, remove the cap and we will take our plug and just snap it into the bracket, and then make our connection behind it. And with that were already done.

There you have it for part number 40975 from Hoppy. .
