2. Position the CHMSL to the rearward facing surface of the stanchion on the spare tire carrier
3. Install and tighten the four screws (2) that secure the CHMSL to the stanchion. Tighten the screws to 2 Nm (20 in. lbs.).
4. Feed the CHMSL wiring back into the swing gate through the clearance hole far enough to engage the rubber grommet (6) into the clearance hole.
5. Reach through the access hole on the inside of the swing gate near the latch to access and reconnect the CHMSL pigtail connector (7) to the swing gate wire harness connector (3).
6. Reinstall the louvered plastic access panel over the access hole by hooking it into the outboard edge of the hole, then pressing firmly and evenly over the two snap clip locations on the inboard side of the panel until it snaps into place.
7. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
