Questions and Answers
BJ's Off-Road is proud to announce our Tailgate Window Switch Conversion! We had a bracket built to adapt a military grade switch to your factory tailgate rocker switch bracket! This switch is very high quality and should outlast the stock switch! Our switch also retains all interior switch functions! Note that this switch replaces the one inside the tailgate (not the dash).
Kit Includes:
Switch Adapter
Switch - Waterproof Military Grade
Screws and Lock Rings
Ring Terminals with Heat Shrink Sleeves
Window Lifter Clips (pair)
6-inch Piece of Wire
Instructions
**Note: you will reuse the original switch bracket, and our conversion kit mounts to that.
83 Cherokee NT
The hardest part about installing the Tailgate Switch Conversion Kit is getting to the switch assy itself. After that it was very simple to remove the old switch and install the new set up. Great directions on the wiring. I am very happy. My old bust tailgate switch must have been causing a open connection to the dash switch cuz after the tailgate Switch Conversion Kit was install the dash switch worked as designed. Great product.

great kit, make sure to have a friend to help
for my 1977 Wagoneer, the orange wire in the installation instructions is actually red with white trace. Also, the brown and tan wires need to be reversed from what is it in the instructions to make sure dash switch works correctly, which it did after I installed this kit. Also, you will need to really crimp the connectors very hard, and in order to get the two red with white trace power wires and the black jumper wire in the same connector, you will need to cut off about 20% of the stands so that they all fit in the crimp connector. since you are taking all of the parts off, it is a good time to lube the gears and tracks. I found it a good idea to use a 2" hole saw over make a hole near the bottom of the inner tailgate to allow easy access to the spring clips that retain the steel part of the glass frame to each of the regulator arms. Also, I was not able to install the replacement spring clips, as the spring steel is too stiff, but you can get replacements that are as thin as the originals at any Ace or True Value.

Must have if rebuilding
I bought this because my key switch never worked and knew when I rebuilt the tailgate I’d need to install it. Super easy install, instructions are clear.

Mr
After failure of the original switch I discovered this upgrade solution. Excellent!! Comes with detailed step-by-step description to install. However quite a lot of work to get to the switch, but absolutely worth it.

Q:
I guess I just can't picture it in my head, LOL. Is there any way you can post a picture of the installed switch? Not sure if this is what I need or not, and a visual picture would help. Thanks !
Asked by:

- 11/22/2019
A:
This is the switch that is inside the tailgate, behind the regulator assembly. When you put the key into the tailgate cylinder, the shaft of the cylinder connects to this switch.

Q:
Is this the replacement to the tailgate safety switch located on the drivers side of the tailgate that can cause the rear window not to go down despite the tailgate being closed?
Asked by:
BRANDON
- 4/8/2019
A:
No, this is the replacement for the switch inside the tailgate that the key goes into. What you are referring to is the safety switch, which is currently unavailable / discontinued.

Q:
I think I need one of these switches....the dash switch was working until I tried to get the tailgate key switch working, now the dash switch is dead....the tailgate key switch works up but not down. The motor/regulator work fine on external battery power. Question: there are (5) wires on the factory switch...but 6 posts.....is this correct? (Colors are: Orange, white, white with red stripe, brown and tan) If we're ok here, I'll order. Also...I'd like to replace the key cylinder and tailpiece if that is available, too. The original is pretty worn. Thanks

It could have 5 or 6 depending on year. The key cylinder is not currently available, nor is the tailpiece (that is being worked on though).
