Automatic Tailgate lock

[Doubleeaz]

This past weekend installed the pop n lock in my 2014 Screw. I had a grommet on drivers side, towards the back of the passenger door. You need to pull up the wiring harness to see it. Just poked a hole and passed the wires through it. Then applied some caulk for extra precaution.

I ran the wires to the harness along the channel by the driver and connected it to grey/brown and blue/green. Works perfectly.

I did not put a washer between the bracket and the tailgate. I tightened everything down and the key locks/unlocks smoothly so didn't think that I need one. Do I need to install the washer?

Two years ago PopandLock said they would correct the next batch, don't know if that happen.
The other problem is the ones on Amazon are knock offs and will have no warranty if you buy them there.

Well... that could be interesting. That's where I got mine. What's the telling factor to determine that it is a knock -off?

If you go to PopandLock's website you'll see their statement.

I don't think anybody has had a problem with the one from Amazon so far.

They have changed the wording since last I looked three years ago:

Please note that Pop & Lock™ Products purchased on auction sites such as Ebay, Amazon and Craig's List, etc. will not be covered under factory warranty under any circumstances. Pop & Lock™ LLC (and Pop & Lock™ Corporation) is unable to verify whether products sold through auction sites are new, used, or refurbished, therefore, Pop & Lock LLC (and Pop & Lock™ Corporation) is unable to warranty such purchases. Pop & Lock LLC advises using extreme caution when purchasing our locks through auction sites as you'll be doing so at your own risk.

When I get home on to a PC I'll add this to the first post.

I did talk about about it somewhere in the thread but this thread has become quite large.

It's interesting that it includes Amazon as an auction site.

Got mine through Amazon with no issues so far. The only thing I would be leery of is the seller on Amazon. As long as it's sold by Amazon.com as the seller or is cover by Amazon Prime I think you're cover through Amazon either way.

I am sure the one I have came from Amazon. But is did use prime.

Pop-n-Lock is probably referring to Amazon.com Marketplace sellers which are individuals or companies simply using Amazon to list their products. You're probably fine as long as the item listing says sold by and shipped from Amazon before adding to your cart. Also, just because an item is eligible for Prime, doesn't mean that Amazon sells it. It only means that the vendor signed an agreement to ship their products to an Amazon distribution warehouse instead of shipping direct to the customer. You want to make sure the item is sold by AND shipped from Amazon to be sure. Otherwise, you're at the whim of the vendor if you get a knockoff and/or something that doesn't match the product listing details at all.

Can I assume you used the driver side to tie into? To point out, Since the colors of the wires are not consistent though out the whole Pop & Lock wire harness, it's not as important how you put the wires together for the run to the truck wires in the cab. You can simply switch the wires around. Only thing really important are the truck's wire colors.

Yes I wired via driver side

I wired to drivers side as well. Works great. Video on my build thread.
