1989 k1500 passenger door wiring connector?

[J_Belchamber]

I am replacing the passenger side door on my 1989 k1500 I think some of the newer obs trucks have a door wiring harness connector in the cowl but I'm not sure if there is a connector in the '89 I can't seem to feel one when I stick my hand in there and I don't find anything on the forums about it. Just want to be sure before I drill some rivets out that hold the inside door handle in place so I can pull the harness through. Thanks

Did you try a flashlight and mirror?

Yes, there is a connector in the lower cowl for the door wiring harness.

the connector is tucked up inside the side panel behind the plastic trim panel on the side of the foot well. It is usually a ways up there but with a bit of trial and error you should be able to pull it down far enough to unplug it.

I'll check way up in the cowl tonight. Thanks for the diagram and input

Found it tonight. Had to pull the harness down quite a ways to get to the connectors but found them.
