Today on this 2008 Chevrolet Silverado Pickup we are going to be installing the Pollak Twist-in
7-pole connector part number PK11916. We are at the rear bumper of the Chevrolet Pickup
and we are going to locate our mounting location for our 7-pole plug. If you look just to the
left of your license plate holder. You have got an existing knock out plug that is basically
just a holder for the position that we are going to be putting our 7-pole into. To release
this there is a little tab on the outboard side. Just take a flat bladed screw driver
or something you can get in there to press that tab in a little bit. Twist the knock-out
counter clockwise 45 degrees and pull the knock out away from the vehicle. In doing
so you can see on the back side we have got a plug in. 00:46
This is the plug-in that we are going to be plugging our 7-pole harness into. On the top
side we have got a release button. We just want to press that and pull the two pieces
apart. Next we will take our new 7-pole connector and we will plug the two pieces together.
Make sure you press it in until you hear it click. We will simply slide it back into position
at about a 45 degree angle. Rotate it up into position until it snaps and you will see the
release pin is locked into place. That is all there is to the installation. That will
conclude the installation of part number PK11916 on a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado Pickup.
