Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the taillight junction block on this 2002 Chevy Suburban. It's the same part and similar process on the Suburbans from 2002 to 2006. You'll need a new taillight junction block from 1AAuto.com, a flat blade screwdriver, and a hammer.
Your taillight junction block is located right here. You want to start off by just pushing the tabs on each of these harnesses and disconnecting them. Most likely, your junction block won't just slide out now on its own, so what we do is we just use a flat blade screwdriver and a hammer to kind of loosen up these tabs. There are four of them in total. We'll just fast-forward as Don does that last tab, and then from the side of the junction block, you want to just use that flat blade screwdriver, hit it with the hammer, and it'll start to slide out. Once you get it most of the way you can pull it the rest of the way out.
On the left is the old junction block; on the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical, and they'll fit exactly the same. Take your new junction block and just slide it into the bracket. Then reconnect your four harnesses. You'll see on the junction block which color goes where. Now, since we've loosened this, it will slide out. Just to make sure it doesn't, we just want to hammer the edge there until it kind of bends down over the junction block. Now it's held in place, and you're all set.
