Hi Jason, I'm a female (non mechanic) and I just followed your excellent video step by step and now have a perfecty locking tailgate on my 2017 Honda Ridgeline!!! I also ran into the camera/screw situation.... I could not get the camera bracket solidly placed, so I got 2 different (brass) screws that were able to be screwed all the way down and now it's solid! I hope that's okay. Something else that I did, that might be helpful to someone.... before I installed the new cylinder, I took it to a locksmith and had it re keyed to work with the key in the key fob so that I don't have to carry around another extra key! Thanks so much for a fabulous, detailed.... thorough instructional video! Well done!

Thank you so much for this excellent video. I needed to replace the top rail cap on my 2018 Ridgeline tailgate. The Honda garage wanted 2 hours of labor at a cost of $400 to replace it. Plus $200 for the cap. I used parts of your video and replaced the cap in 15 minutes. I may put the Tailgate lock on later.

Jason, thanks for the video. My install went perfectly. A few comments: Slide the camera harness (From the camera) to the passenger side, don't pull up; The orientation of the tabs on the white clips does not matter, the clips just need to be fully engaged in their sockets. My factory clips had the tabs in random orientations. All the tabs do is allow the cap to slide to the passenger side when "bumped" with the hammer; I agree to check the camera mount screw install. Mine were difficult to get fully tightened and I needed to be very careful; Which brings me to consider a full set of Phillips head screwdrivers or a 12-in-1. I think it is important to use the correct size screwdriver for the fastener as they are almost one-use items and it seems like it is relatively easy to mess up a screw head if you use the wrong size Phillips head screwdriver; PS - this video was the one that knows what the new purple clip is for (to retain the swing release cable). Thanks again, following your videos have resulted in rear doors that open wide and a tailgate that locks, these were my two concerns when I bought the truck and you helped me address both of them.

I had that problem with the camera screws, too. They got to a point where they felt as tight as they could get, but the bracket was still loose. I had to psych myself up a little to dare tightening them further.

Of the three KZfaq videos that apply, yours is the best. My install went smoothly except for the violet clip replacement. The old clip broke when taking it out and the new clip broke when putting it in. Both broke in the same place. I was able to secure the broken clip with aluminum wire until the a new clip arrives in the mail. Everything working fine.

Jason, excellent video. All of the steps matched my 2019 Ridgeline except that the camera harness was mounted to the tailgate with a clip. It was a small challenge to release it. Other than that every step went smoothly and my lock was installed in just about 1 hour. thanks for this.

I must agree with Joe. The hardest part was removing the camera harness from the clip attached to the tailgate frame. The 2nd most difficult part was reinstalling the white clips. Most of them snapped right in, while others took a screwdriver with a flat blade to get in. Overall, best video for installing the manual lock. Thank you!

@goaliemojo43102 жыл бұрын
Thanks for all the details! One detail I found missing in other KZfaq lock installs was how to not just hammer off the top section of the tailgate, but how to set it back up for easy reinstall. I had an existing Pop N Lock system (installed at the local Honda dealership) which had proven faulty from the beginning due to loose wiring connections, and I had hoped to be able to use both the tailgate lock and the Pop N Lock, but they are definitely NOT compatico. The structure of the OEM tailgate lock (the large black bracket) requires the removal of the Pop N Lock. The Pop N Lock is nice since it runs off the key fob, when it works, and its a bummer when it doesn't and I can't open my tailgate or it just plain doesn't lock. For now I will take a breather on the process, since I tightened up the connections on the Pop N Lock and can now easily pull it all apart again and take out the innards and go solo with the keyed OEM system. It's so nice not to have to rely on expensive crappy dealership work and just figure it out ourselves. Thanks again for your video and time making it!

Nice project there. Well explained with tips! I think they didn't include that because a locking top is optional. Anyone can just reach in so why lock the tailgate. That's my take. I have the Tonneau cover but it doesn't lock. Next is to make the rear door open wider. Saw a easy video on that.

@miker8687 Жыл бұрын
@@jasonin2details I went ahead and did this here are the details. Wiring is a piece of cake. The issue you will run into is the after market electric lock has its own metal plate that will not work in combination with the new honda locking handle metal plate. With that said, you need the beefed up parts that come with the new honda locking handle as the original plastic piece that holds the metal wire for the side opening will bust without it, mine did immediately. So if you want to go electric like I did you need to buy the new honda handle but only use the beefed up parts and use your existing handle, and don’t bother purchasing the lock mechanism of course.

Funny you didn't mention the socket to remove the handle at the beginning and you better have an extension long enough to get down into the bed to remove the original handle. It's not as easy as it looks and there are many things that can go wrong. Even my dealer struggled with it and did not get it right the first time. The new handle was not catching and disengaging the latch properly or at all. Had to take it back and it's still not working properly and this is with a Honda tech doing the install. If you didn't have all the proper tools and a video like this to help it would not be for your average non mechanic like me. It's just not that simple. Major mistake by Honda here not including this from the factory.
