Could you help me out. Is there a difference between the front and rear door handles. Then wiring, how did you hook them up and how may wires are there on the handles. Some on ebay i see 3 wires and some i see 5. More information on this mod would be wonderful as i am trying to do this
The front handles are the five wire. Rear are the three wire. There’s a ground wire and one for the handle led. The other wires are for the keyless access.
As far as the wiring goes, the challenge is getting the puddle lamp circuit to the handles. If you already have the puddle lamps in the front mirrors, that circuit is in the front door harness and landed in the mirror connector. You can splice into it and run to the handle connector. BTW, the Escalade handle connectors were keyed different from my Yukon’s. You can either shave off the keyed part on the door harness side with a razor blade, replace it with the correct connector or just swap in front and rear Escalade door harnesses like I did. You’ll have to get the puddle lamp circuit landed in the body side of the rear door connectors. I spliced into the gray/green striped puddle lamp circuit wire in the body harness along the lower door sill on each side. That’s it in a nutshell.
