In this video we will be going thru how to identify the correct part number and replace a weather pack style wiring harness connectors on old body style (OBS) GMT400 type Chevrolet and GMC trucks. Rather than solder or crimp in a pigtail, I prefer to just replace the connector itself when the part is available.
The truck illustrated is a 1999 Chevrolet K1500 Suburban LT with the 6.5L diesel engine option, but the connector replacement procedure I share with you will be the same for any 1988 thru 2002 GMT400 generation OBS truck or SUV for this same weather-pack style wiring harness connector. So Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC for Escalade, Suburban, Silverado, Cheyenne, Tahoe, Sierra, W/T, and Yukon across C1500, K1500, C2500, K2500, C3500, and K3500 weight ratings.
