- 3rd Gen Toyota Tundra (2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021) - Look below to find links for the OEM Power Tailgate Lock Kit and tools I used in this video!
In this video, I will show you how to install the OEM Power Tailgate Lock Kit (available in 2 sizes) from Toyota. Adding this kit will allow you to automatically lock/unlock your tailgate anytime you lock/unlock your 3rd Gen Tundra (2014 and up)!
Please note: Even though Toyota states that this kit is only for 2019+ Tundras, the kit should work for any 3rd Gen Tundra with power locks (this particular Tundra is a 2015).
Below are links to both the "short wheelbase" and "long wheelbase" OEM Power Tailgate Lock Kits from Toyota (available on Amazon):

"Gotta make sure your rod slips in" & "Finger or two in the back side should work", some much gold in this video.
Lmao 🤣. You know, when I was editing this video, I heard myself say these things...
If there was ever a time to chime in to say "... that's what she said", this would probably be it.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more thorough video! Thank you for taking so much time and being so detailed!
Thanks! I try to give as much useful information as I can. I appreciate the support! 😁👍
About to do this job myself, I appreciate your slow and careful explanation of the process. Thanks!
I'm glad that my video is useful! I appreciate the support!
3rd Gen is 22 up 2014 to 21 is gen 2.5
Thank you for the clarification 👍. I will make sure to correct it very soon.
Like everyone else have said, great video. You really didn't leave any "gaps" in the instructions. I can't wait for the weather to warm up so I can get this installed.
Thank you 😁 . Hopefully, the weather will warm up soon so you can install the parts and enjoy the upgrade. I am happy to hear that this video is helpful 👍 .
Just installed this same non OEM version from eBay on my 2016 Tundra no issues. Everything was exactly the same……Thank you for the video info. Also, that has to be the cleanest under carriage I’ve ever seen 😂
Nice 👊 👍. I'm happy to hear that the video was helpful 😁. It's always important to keep your undercarriage clean 🤣🤣🤣
Outstanding install!! Thank you sir for your awesome work on this project!
Thanks! I'm happy to hear that the video is helpful 😁👍.
Great video, thank you. I have a 2016 CrewMax & this would be a fantastic addition to my truck.
I'm glad my video was useful 👊👍. Thanks for checking out out!
Thank You. Thanks for providing the links
I'm glad I could help out!
Excellent job so far you’re the only one thank you make my life a lot simpler when I go on install mine be blessed
I'm glad the video is helpful! Thank you for your kindness 👍👍
You’re welcome thank you for taking the time to make the video
Great video. Very helpful. Thank you!
I'm glad the video was useful!
Thanks for the informative video. Just installed on my 2016 SR5 but the factory grommet under the carpet already had a wire. I simply cut a slit in the new grommet to accept the existing wire.
That's very good info to know! Thanks 👊👍. I am glad to hear that the video was helpful.
Thanks for this video. You saved me 2hrs of labor at the dealership!
I'm glad to hear that the video was useful! 👊👍
My Dealer said they’d never installed one before as these were always installed at the Port and wanted 3 hrs labor about $500-$600 to ensure they were covered. I laughed and told them no thanks, I’d TH-cam it. Thanks Level up, you earned a thankful Sub.
I'm glad to hear that the video helped you save some $$$ 👍😁
Great job explaining!
Thanks for the support! 👊 😁👍
Just installed mine on my 2020 pro. Nice video thanks!
I'm happy to hear that my video was helpful! 👊👍😁
Baffles me that auto tailgate lock is not standard on a 60K 2021 truck. Just installed a bed cover on my ‘21 TRD Pro and realized I now need to buy and install this harness.
It baffles me too. It's definitely a necessity, especially in regards to how easy it is to remove the tailgate completely if you forget to manually lock it.
Will sitting inside the vehicle and unlocking from the door controls to unlock other doors also unlock the tailgate as well? Great video and easy to follow instructions. My dealership wants $419 plus tax for this installation and part. From the video, I can easily follow and save that money minus the part.
You are correct. If you are sitting inside the vehicle, pressing the unlock button once will unlock the driver front door. Pressing the unlock button twice will unlock all doors AND the tailgate.
I'm glad you found the video useful! The install is pretty straight forward and is plug & play.
Great upgrade
Thanks! I try... lol
Awesome instructional video. Very very detailed. I will use this video as a guide when my part comes in. How is this holding up? Any issues? Thank you again. Just subscribed as well.
Everything is still working great! No issues whatsoever. I appreciate the support! 😁👍
I like the video very informative to me. I have a 2017 tundra TRD Pro, will this setup be the same for my truck?
Absolutely 💯 yes 👍
Fantastic video, very well done, giving me the courage to upgrade as well. Question - I see that your truck has a truck cap/camper shell, were you able to also integrate auto lock/unlock for the shell? if so, what's the make/model of that shell, and how did you connect to Toyota's OEM actuator wiring?
The specific Leer camper shell on this Toyota Tundra is designed with two manual-locking twist handles and still needs to be opened manually.
Nice!
Thanks! I try lol 😆
This is great, but how in the world did you get the top snap back in place on the passenger kick plate? It seems impossible with the way the wiring harness is mounted to the body.
I don't think I had too much of an issue with the wiring harness being in the way for me...
I know that the kick plate / panel has a couple of white(?) plastic retaining clips that can sometimes stay stuck in the body of the vehicle when removing the kick panel... in which case, you need to pop them out of the body, place them back onto the kick panel, and then re-install the kick panel...
Did the plastic retaining clips come off with the kick panel for you?
Also, the plastic retaining clips look like they are bent when you remove the kick panel... this is actually the way they are supposed to be. The pointy end of the clip needs to be "pointing" towards the front of the vehicle, so it will "suck" the kick panel in / forward as it snaps into place...
Trim panels can be tricky / finicky sometimes and may require a bit of trial and error... I think Toyota may have slightly over-engineered this particular trim panel (as it is very similar & frustrating to install on the Tacoma as well) 😆.
@@LevelUpMechanics this was the problem. I didn’t realize I needed to remove the clip from the body, put the clip on the panel, and THEN push the panel and clip back onto the body. I was trying to get the panel onto the clip while the clip was still in the body.
Thanks!
That's awesome 👌 I'm glad I could help out!
Your description for part takes me a Tacoma part on Amazon. Is this the same part for a tundra? Huge price difference, that’s why I ask.
That's odd. I just clicked the link, and it took me to a kit for the Toyota Tundra like it was supposed to.
The part number should be PK3B6-34JS0 (Toyota Tundra, crew cab, 5.5' bed). PK3B6-34JS0
@@LevelUpMechanics, great thank you. I’ll just copy and paste the part number and see how it goes from there.
Hello,
I recently purchased the tailgate lock and installed it, however it is draining me battery so I unplugged it for now.
Yes I'd watched the video and do it step by step, am I missing something here?
This is the first time I've heard of this issue. What year and model tundra do you have? Do you also have a key fob?
You’ve got it connected incorrectly.
Will this work on 2nd gen tundra? 2013...
Unfortunately, I do not know...
Which option is for the crewmax?
It should be the short wheelbase option for the crewmax tundra.
I hope this info helps! 😁
I had a Toyota Service Manager try to tell me that this could not be added after the fact and the part only existed for repairing Toyota factory installs. He knew nothing.
🤣 he knew nothing, indeed. 🤣
I was going to ask you what year Tundra because I have a 2015 and where ever they sell remote they say it’s not compatible with 2015 only 2019+. At the very end you tell us it’s a 2015 you made me wait LOL
Lol, yeah it's a 2015 Tundra. I don't know why Toyota only says it's for 2019+ but it definitely works for 2014-2021 year models.
Yes, I can confirm that it fits 2015 tundra. I have 2015 CrewMax with a short bed, everything worked out perfectly. It's pretty easy to install.
If you buy this kit from the dealer, don't give them your VIN number. They don't know that it fits all 3rd gen tundras.
Good tip on regards to buying from the dealer 👍 👍
What’s the difference between this and the Pop and Lock? I am assuming that are not one in the same
They're essentially the same. They both do the same thing. However, a lot of people say that the Pop & Lock version is much louder.
Also, the OEM version is 100% "plug &play". The Pop & Lock version may require wire splicing into factory wires.
I hope this info helps! 😁
@@LevelUpMechanics Thank you. Sparks Toyota website states this I not compatible with my 2018. I’ll give them a call to confirm. Also, which part number goes with the SR5 Crew Max and 5”7
Yeah, the dealer will say it's only compatible with 2019 & newer models, but I can assure you that it's compatible with your 2018 Tundra.
Here is the info for the part:
Toyota OEM Power Tailgate Lock Kit (short wheelbase) - PK3B6-34JS0

You can purchase this on Amazon too (follow the link above).
@@LevelUpMechanics Thank you!
Anytime 👊 👍
This is the second video on this same lock installation and both presenters failed to show the last wire connection. Why? Is it that simple? Is it a secret?
What are you referring to? The last connection to the lock actuator?
@@LevelUpMechanics yes. You attached the new wire harness to the existing wire harness on top of the frame and then … done. It’s all finished.
If your referring to the body harness meeting the tailgate harness, then yes, it is that simple.
If you routed both harnesses as shown in the video, the connection between both harnesses is quite simple and easy to do.
The important info to show is how the wire harnesses are routed.
I do agree that maybe I could have shown the connection between the two harnesses so that viewers could have a visual to refer to.
I guess I just didn't think about it while filming because it is very simple to do, so it didn't occur to me that the visual aspect would be necessary.
Thank you for the constructive criticism 👍 as it will help me to improve my content in the future.
I understand what you're saying. The hard part of this install is just routing the wire harnesses. After that, it's literally just "plug & play".
I definitely understand what you are referring to now 😁.
I can tell you that if you are interested in doing this install, you shouldn't have any issues figuring out the connections between the body harness & tailgate harness. You'll just want to secure that connection with a zip tie, like you would with the rest of the harness.
Thanks for giving me a heads-up on what I missed. Your feedback is definitely appreciated 👍😁.
Thanks for the info!
What year is the truck
2015. You can add this oem power lock kit to years 2014-2021. I hope this info helps! 😁
Why does his tailgate lock look different than everyone else's?
Because it's OEM? I'm not sure that I understand what you mean... 🤔
Did you just assume that plugs gender!!!!!!
Yes. Yes I did... until the plug tells me otherwise, I am just going to take an educated guess.
And if any other plugs are out there reading this, I am sorry if I offended you. Feel free to correct me so that I can fix my assumptions.
Says what needs to be done, then turns the camera back on AFTER doing it. Step after step. So much of the work not actually shown. Limited value. 🙄
Thanks for the constructive criticism 👍. I'll try to show more of the work in future videos.
