Today on this 2010 Suzuki SX4, we're going to show you part number 118456. This is a T1 vehicle iron harness with a full pull flat trailer connector. First part, to install it we need to go ahead and open up the back hatch and we need to go ahead to move floor coverings to get down to the spare tire area. Next, we also need to remove the threshold. There will be two plastic fasteners, one on each side to remove. We'll take a flat head screwdriver to pull up the centers, and then pop them loose. And then with steady pressure on the bottom, we can go ahead and pop the threshold loose from the snaps.

We'll put that aside for now. Then we'll go ahead and remove the side panels. The independent doors, we'll go ahead and remove. On our passenger side, there will be two bolts we have to remove, and another plastic fastener. Now we'll go ahead and pop away the panel from the side of the vehicle. A trim panel tool works best for this application.

We'll go ahead and pop it lose, there's only a couple of snaps. That was our passenger side. We'll go ahead and do the same thing on our driver side. Now we're going to look for where the wire harness goes to the tail light, and we'll see the connection point. Go ahead and just connect it, and then we can go ahead and install the T connector. The T connector for the driver side will be the one with the yellow wire.

We'll just snap it back into place in between the two halves. Then we'll go ahead and look for our white wire, because that will be our ground. Just forward of that junction will be a factory ground wire. We'll go ahead ad undo the bolt, which will require a ten millimeter socket. Put the bolt back through the loop, and the bolt back in its original location. We'll go ahead and tighten it down for good, and then we'll go ahead and find a location to mount the converter.

We'll go ahead and clean off the plastic on the inside of the panel, and then we'll go ahead and use adhesive that's on the converter to go ahead and attach to the panel. Make sure it's pressed in good. Then we'll go ahead and make the connection over on the passenger side. What we're going to do is wrap our wires over to the passenger side, and eventually hide them underneath the threshold. We'll make our connections as the same things we did on our driver side. Once all the connections are made, we can go ahead and put our panels back into place, basically in reverse order. Make sure the door seal is pulled out around the top of the trim as well, like it was originally. We'll go ahead and reinstall our metal hardware and our plastic rivets. Now you need to reset the rivet. Just go ahead and open up a little bit and push the center back towards the top, and then you can go ahead and push it into place. We'll go ahead and take a moment to zip tie our wires to the inside edge of the sheet metal, and then cover it up by our threshold. Now we'll go ahead and reinstall our threshold. Make sure the door seal is sitting correctly over the plastic and reinstall our plastic rivets as well. Now, you notice that our wire harness will stay with spare tire. When we're not using it, it will just stay with the spare tire. Out of sight, out of mind, protected from the elements. When we do need to use it, we'll go ahead and pull up the floor covering, pull it out, and over the threshold and then you shut the hatch on it. The door seal is thick enough that it won't hurt anything when you shut it. Just make sure you stay away from the latch in the center. Otherwise you'll smash the wires and you'll have to start all over. You can see there's plenty of length to reach down towards the trailer. We'll go ahead and take our tester and ground it to the white wire, then we'll check our brown wire for a running, live circuit, and then yellow for a left turn signal, and then green for a right turn signal. We'll verify our brake signal by checking or a constant signal on our yellow and green wires. With everything working, that will finish it for part number 118456.
