NOTICE
Proper wire connections are crucial to the life of the
liftgate’s power unit. DO NOT smash the cable lug with a
hammer to secure it to the cable. Poor connections can
result in low voltage, and any attempt to operate below the
minimum required voltage could result in system failure.
3. Use the supplied heat shrink tube to insulate the new
connection. Heat the shrink tubing using a heat gun
or propane torch until it shrinks around the cable
insulation and cable lug, leaving only the mounting
hole exposed. DO NOT overheat the heat shrink
tubing.
