    Here are the color codes for the door lock actuators:
    Driver Door: B and R (before the J17 Junction connector) or L (after the J17 Junction connector)
    Front Passenger: LG and R
    Rear LH: LA-R and LA-G (LA=Pink) <-- this is the one documented above.
    Rear RH: R and G

    The first time I wired it up, I thought the unlock wasn't working. Then after troubleshooting it over and over, I needed to hit unlock on the remote twice.

    Yeah, I wired mine to the front passenger door. Super easy and I don't have to hear that loud actuator unless I'm unlocking all doors.

    If you wire to the pink wires on the Drivers side - it also only works with the passenger doors - unless you have it set to unlock all when you grab the handle.

    I need some help. I completed the install last night using the Pop-Lock kit. I ran the wire up to the cab on the passenger side. When I went to wire it in, I used the info on various reply's on this thread. The first time, I wired the green and blue wire to the red and green wire in the top connector on the right. The second time, I took advice to wire to the bottom black connector, the bottom 2 wires. None of this work.

    I'm stuck and my truck is tore apart, can someone please reply quickly with the right answer?

    I did this exactly last weekend and it works perfectly.
    I wired to the black connector. The bottom two wires on that connector.

    You have to unhook the white ones to get them out of the way.

    Hey TJ, if I used a blue splice vs the red supplied splice would that make a difference? I put a 9 volt battery across the solenoid and it worked. Reseated the connector from tailgate to longer harness, continuity tested it (got a tone) up to the splice (wasn't a loud tone) and it still doesn't work. The blue and the green wire is what I spliced into on the black connector. The bottom 2 wires.

    Any ideas?

    No ideas man. Those are the same two wires I went in to and it works perfectly for me.
