    Listen to this guy people. When it’s done right, it’ll work for ages.
    I say this because I had a 1st gen Cadillac CTS. And in order to PROPERLY change out the headlight bulbs. You have to remove the front bumper. However, some have discovered that you could remove the air box for the driver side, and fuse box for the passenger. Both had its issues. The air box would some times not seal up tight. Some of those times, the engine wouldn’t stay running due to lack of flow over the MAP(I think) sensor. Or a week down the road it would start to act up because of the seal.
    Then the fuse box would have its own problems, but most of the time they didn’t show up until months later.
    Sure they saved an hour or so of time by not removing the bumper. But they caused themselves hours of headache down the road.
    My point is, do it right the first time.

I installed the Hansshow v3 which eliminates the dreaded work in the upper rear seat/speaker area. Instead, the connections are made in the door lift using the handle and door latch areas which made it a lot easier. You guys are the best!

    Some extra tips, I just installed this kit with the help of your great video. I really didnt want to use the rear light holes either. The only thing I did different: I found it better to not drill an extra hole but route the left wire to the exisiting hole on the right. (The cable is long enough) Also make sure to remove the metal bumper clips if the dont come off by themselves. The can scratch the paint when reinstalling. When i put my rearbumper bach a cable of the parking distance sensor became stuck between the inside of the bumper and the metal bar. I didnt notice this untill I was finished and had to remove the entire bumper again.

    Thanks for the video. With this, I was able to install my kit without even referring to the instructions - with the only tweak being using the grommets behind the crash bar instead of drilling a hole.
    The only thing that seemed to be different with my install is that the loom for the trunk/boot lid had plugs to intercept the button - which I assume replaced the wire you had to run into the shelf and remove that C pillar trim etc.

  • @ariip
    @ariip 3 роки тому

    Electrified Garage, I have a totally more oem way to do it. I can understand that others may not want to do this because it does require drilling a new hole through the vertical side of the gutter area. The trunk wiring goes through a grommet on the right side which has a boot. the grommet as a lip on the inside and outside to keep out the water. It is also on the vertical to reduce water flow going on it. On the left side there is a similar flat area which is not used since there is no boot there. You can buy such a similar grommet/boot and make another smaller hole further up or down the vertical section with a 90 degree bend and will run the wiring right into the trunk area without going to the gutter and cramming under the seal etc. Much less unsightly, water safe and looks like it was oem. I found these on the internet. They are the only one I found that use a round hole which is easy to drill, rather than an oval hole. www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Window-Door-Jamb-Wiring-Boots-Pair-Accordion-Style-Z-4-Long-3-4-Hole/352208860385?hash=item520148b4e1:g:7pQAAOSwvdxdRK09 These have grommets at both ends, but you could just cut one end of and just use the one grommet and the boot downward with the wire coming out. The boot going in a downward direction would prevent water from getting in and it would not upward towards the grommet.

      I see why because you're not installing foot sensor version 2 compared to version 3 is so much easier to install you didn't have to mess with the C pillar you wire straight to the trunk lid area. That it. Also I prefer to put the Box controller on the left hand side where there's a ground near but also it's a straight shot to the power supply need a driver foot rest area there's a positive bolt waiting to say hello to you. Also best install an extra momentary switch on the left hand side for most convenient likely you'll be tapping it on close trunk on way to your driver side instead of reaching all the way over to the top right-hand side or lower if you're already on the driver side.

    IMPORTANT !!!!!
    Most uploads like this one is extremely good at showing how to disassemble bits and pieces... but be aware that most of the UA-camrs does not have experience with stuff like routing cables and securing them.
    THIS video however shows the skill - Thank you "Electrified Garage" for not misleading folks :)
    In the Hansshow manual it CLEARLY states that is is forbidden to pass the strut cables through the rear light opening. So many other UA-camrs do this. Cable gets all squished and it WILL slowly get cut but that sharp opening edge as the car moves along (thousands of small vibrations). And drop tray or not you have still created an opening into the cabin that should be there.
    If you don't want to take off the rear bumper you can do the following...
    Strutcables can be routed further down and into the rear bumber (large openings far left and right. Down on the rear side of the bottom boot compartment there are 2 blueish rubberseals on each side (one small and one big). Cut the middle of the small blue seal to fit one strutcable and the other to fit both strut- and footsensorcable (if you bought that). Make sure the cables does not jump around in the rear bumber. When you are satisfied with the cable routing then add a little silikoneglue (or whatever) to close whatever opening there might be between blue seals and cables.

The washer comes up with it and I couldn't get the power terminal connector to slide between the nut and the washer so I put it at the bottom. Does that matter? I was doing this project for most of the day and I'm wondering if I hurt the 12v by doing that. I didn't turn climate off so it was on for hours like that, and I had the car powered off quite a bit but I read that can also hurt the 12v because the main battery isn't supporting it then. Ugh. :(

  • @pingu324

    Wish I knew about that 12v connection under the seat when I did mine in December. Alot easier than running to the front. Note, you can open and close the trunk with earlier versions of the Hannshow kit from the touch screen also. It just doesn't flash 'open/opened'. Still shows the 'open' option. Only difference with V3 you have is the flashing between status as that tells you it is indeed Opened. Earlier versions you just need to look back and see. Also, adjusting the soft kit is from the main controller. But mine pulls in a bit too hard and makes a latching sound after closing (pulls centre of trunk lid in too much also). Hannshow hasn't been able to help with that.... wondering what you did different.

If there was a spring adjustment on the latch, that would solve my problem. I have the latch set as far outward as possible and have come to accept as it is for now. The system works very well otherwise and very oem

    hey, why did you use double sided tape for the control box instead of the nut and bolt that came with the kit?

    • @ElectrifiedGarage
      @ElectrifiedGarage  4 роки тому

      The control box does not have tabs or a mount. Its just a square box, the double sided tape came with the kit to mount the module.

    Thanks

    • @ElectrifiedGarage
      @ElectrifiedGarage  3 роки тому

      Yes, the CAN bus needs to be connected if the kit requires it. This is not that hard to do, the interface is behind the center console or the drivers side kick panel depending on kit make/variant, this kit has a plug in harness and did not require CAN connection.

    NOTE TO EVERYONE. I HAVE INSTALLED MY STRUT WIRING WITHOUT RUNNING IT DOWN THE TRUNK AND GOING IN THE TAILIGHT (BAD IDEA) OR DOWN TO THE TRUNK THROUGH AN EXISTING GROMMET. I obtained double sided grommets with a tube like the factory grommet that goes up to the trunk lid. My wiring comes out through the vertical wall (I had to drill a hole of course and had the rear deck top out) in the rain channel/gutter through this grommet/tube just behind (towards the back of car) the factory on the right side and alone of course on the left drivers side. Just above/forward to where the strut bottom attaches. The wire only comes down a couple of inches then to the strut. Looks like a factory installation. Not sure why nobody else I have heard of has done this.

    Any reason you don't go through the two blue grommets on the rear of the car, if you have a post 2019 car, rather than drilling a hole?

    • @ElectrifiedGarage
      @ElectrifiedGarage  3 роки тому +1

      You can do that, there's no reason why that wont work other than size of hole VS plug size depending on the make/ model of kit you are using.

    Is it necessary to put any protectant on the bare metal from when you drilled the hole? Like a primer or something? Or is that rubber seal + location enough to be safe to prevent rust? (i assume this part is steel and not aluminum)

      Hi, when you fitted the V4 kit did you use the power under the rear seat? And did it work ok? I tried this but the system does not work - control box lights on but that’s all. I’ve heard that the power from the rear seat goes to sleep’ so not sure if that’s my problem...?

    Great video .. I have finished installing my Hansshow Power trunk in my model 3 and connected power to the 12v PCS connection under the seat as in your video. But i have a slight problem - sometimes when the car is locked the power truck stops working - it wont open at all.. then if i unlock the car it works again. It seems as though if the car has been driven for a while the trunk still works for a little longer - im wondering if this is because the 12v battery is being charged for a while after driving and power is disconnected from this PCS connection when charging is finished cutting the supply to the power trunk?
    Have you had any issues with the truck not opening when the car is locked/asleep?

    • @mode3fpv931
      @mode3fpv931 4 роки тому

      I've done a little more testing.. and have confirmed that the 12v PCS connection does indeed power off when the 12v battery is not being charged, so when this happens the trunk stops working. I have now moved my 12v connection to the VC Right connection and it now stays on and works all the time...

    • @yeukyeung100
      @yeukyeung100 4 роки тому

      So connecting to the PCS connection under the rear passenger seat will stop working? If u bring it up the VC right, where are you get the power source from?

    • @mode3fpv931
      @mode3fpv931 4 роки тому

      If you look at this video ua-cam.com/video/rDYbvI32OBE/v-deo.html at 2:10 he talks about VC right - there are 2x Thick Red cables connecting to the module - the one on the left is where i connected the power cable for the trunk (its the bottom connection when mounted in the car). VC Right is a circuit board/module that is mounted on the right side of the kick panel just in front of the door - you need to remove some trim in the footwell to get to it. Also, id advise disconnecting the 12v battery + lead before making the connection as it is always live and you dont want to risk shorting it to any metal parts of the car!

    All your wires seem to have plugs of one kind or another all ready attached. My two (2) harneses have 5 wire leads with no plugs or labels. In the larger bundle it's next to the tail gate butonwire. In the smaller bundel it's in a 'Y' marked motor plug and handle. I assume they go to the interior trunk lights but how do I conect? Any assistance you can give will be greatly appreciated.

    • @ElectrifiedGarage
      @ElectrifiedGarage  4 роки тому

      So I have a couple of questions, What brand of kit are you using? What version of it also. Some of the company's have created new revisions of the unit / wiring. From what you are describing, it sounds like an earlier revision where 2 of the harnesses need to be snaked up the the trunk harness and connected in the lid of the trunk instead of connecting under the rear shelf area.
