GM Spare Tire Carrier help.
 
I have a 2004 H2 Hummer and I just bought the GM Spare Tire carrier. I have no problem drilling the extra hole on the passenger side and getting the thing mounted. One issue though, it did not come with instructions and the wire for the license plate light has a some sort of plug/clip that is suppose to plug into something underneath the bumper.

Any ideas of what that is? I see plugs all over the place, but I don't want to unplug something just to plug this in.

Help.

Not sure I am answering this correctly so if not, please be more clear.

The plug-in for the license plate light plug is mounted behind the bumper behind the "R" in HUMMER.

I'm assuming it is there even if the tire carrier was missing. I took mine off and un-plugged it then cut the wire as I thought it was ugly on the back (personal opinion) for daily driving, but it would go back on if climbing/mudding.

I got the carrier attached with no problem, but I don't see anything behind the R. I think I am going to give the dealer a call and take the H2 by there. It will take them five minutes.

I will take one more look this week.

thanks for the help.

I'll go crawl under mine and take a looksie. Would a photo help you out at all? Can't believe 40+ people looked at this thread and not one person answered until me. lame

I was surprised no one else posted either, but then again, everyone is busy with the holidays quickly approaching.

A photo would be great. I would appreciate that greatly. I would owe you a beer at somepoint.

Where are you located?

lol..No problem..Lemme go check it out..

I'm in Oregon. You?

HummerGerhardt 12-12-2010 09:24 PM

I am sorry, the beer will have to wait!

I am in Baton Rouge. Which is only 1,500 or so miles away!

I gave up snow for warm weather and what do I get for that, a low temp of 20F tonight here. I just hope my pool does not freeze!

We will be back up to 70F by Thursday!

Scott

P.S. I still owe you a beer.

Here is a picture of what mine looks like. Behind the bumper the wire appears to tie into the wires for the rear bumper lights. (I tried to take a picture of the wiring, but I couldn't get the right angle for you to see anything)

I sure can. Take your time. How many houses do you have? Do you want to adopt me?
