Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2012 Chevrolet Malibu- Video

Speaker 1: Today on this 2012 Chevrolet Malibu, we're going to review and install the Upgraded Circuit Protected ModuLite with 4 Pole Harness, part number 119179KIT.Let's go ahead and take a quick look at the ModuLite itself. This is going to be a great addition to your vehicle when you pull a trailer. First off, you notice it's got a protector here and it's labeled right here. That means that if there's any shorts or problems on the trailer, this module protects the vehicle from any shorts or damages. To give you an idea how it all works, our module is actually powered by your battery and from these input wires here, from the car, what happens is that the box will actually copy the signal and then send, using battery power, send it out to your trailer. So that way, again, if there's any problems with the trailer, it's limited to here and that's where it stops.Couple of neat things inside the box that protect the vehicle is it has a resettable breaker on the inside that's totally automatic, so you just let it sit for awhile and reset. more

Roadmaster Tow Bar Wiring Kit Installation - 2010 Chevrolet Malibu- Video

Today on our 2010 Chevy Malibu we'll be installing the Roadmaster Universal Diode Wiring Kit for tow vehicles, part number RM-154. To begin our install, we'll first need to locate the manufacturer's wiring that runs to both taillight assemblies. To do this we'll remove the spare tire cover and then the rear threshold. To remove the rear threshold, we'll simply pull up on the bottom of the threshold releasing the four fasteners underneath.   Next, to gain access behind the taillight assemblies on both sides there will be two push pin fasteners and two threaded cargo hook fasteners. Once we remove these fasteners, we can pull back on the trunk carpeting which will expose the wiring behind it and the back of the taillight assemblies. more

Base Plate Wiring Harness Installation - 2012 Chevrolet Malibu- Video

Today in this 2012 Chevy Malibu, well be using a 6-Pole Round Pin Connector, part number PK11609 and Diode Kit, part number 38955. Were going to install our 6-Pole Connector here in this space, so first Ill need to remove the lower panels so I can start routing my wire. When routing our wire, we're going to be careful to stay away from pinch points such as the suspension or steering, or extensive heat such as exhaust. Im going to use a piece of air line or pull wire to help me thread it through the frame here of the vehicle. We got our wire run to the back of the vehicle, now we need to get up into the trunk area so that we can attach it to the manufacturers wiring. To do that, were going to need to pull apart some of the rear interior. more
