- I install a momentary switch to actuate the rear hatch release from inside the van.

Links for the parts you used? Always helpful to put that in the description - You can still add that. I forget to do it, too
Link for connectors loaded in the description. Good idea Michael!
@@booper2ca Thank YOU!
@@booper2ca oops, you forgot the switch link :) - Of course I'm assuming you ordered this stuff off Amazon, you may have picked it all up at a brick and mortar joint....
Link for switch added
I'd like to do thi, I went low-tech with a piece of paracord - The one thing I wanted to see you didn't show, the wiring....
Take one of the t- connectors and one of the red wires coming from the switch and crimp it on the orange wire. Do the same with the other red wire coming from the switch to the purple wire. Those t-connectors slice through the insulation and make connection as you're crimping them on. Its super easy.
I dunno what gm was thinking on this dutch door with no interior opener, also why they didn't go mechanical for the outside. I'm on the fence between mechanical option or electrical for inside, I really like the clean approach the push button gives, but at the same time if safety is one of the goals a mechanical option doesn't fail if there is an electrical fire.
The wiring as he's done is really simple, the original button on the outside when pressed closes the circuit to give power to the actuator, splicing the momentary switch to the orange and purple wire is just another way to close that circuit, it doesn't matter which way around it is hooked
@@booper2ca OK, got you, I figured but was waiting to see it
@@frankevans287 yeah, I'm thinking I'll do this and keep the paracord on there as well
@@AstroVanTribe right on, always good to have a plan b
What ever came of the compression issues on this van? Was it broken valve spring? Burnt valve?
How much Offset can you have on rims and tire and still be able to open the sliding door
Where did you find the fender caps?
