4. Two options for routing the wire harness into
the truck box are shown below in Figure 4.
OPTION 1: Through drain tube holes
(Step12 of the Retrax Installation Instructions).
Push 24” of wire through the holes. Use split
wire loom to wrap around the wires as a barrier
between the wires and the drain tube hole.
(NOTE: this may require a larger hole than
normal to allow for wires.)
OPTION 2: Route the wiring in the gap
between the cab and truck bed (leave about 24” in
truck bed). The wires will be hidden under the
front weather-stripping of the Retrax cover.
Installing the POWERTRAX on the truck
Proceed with the RETRAX Assembly and Installation Instructions Steps 1-10
NOTE: Disregard all references to “Lock.” Not applicable for POWERTRAX.
Connect the wiring harness to electronics box
and battery
A. There is a white label wrapped with the letter
“P” on it to ensure proper connections are made
(Figures 5). Ensure the connectors labeled P are
securely connected. (Connectors labeled “M” will
come attached.)
B. Connect the wires to the battery and install a
fuse in the fuse holder. The RED wire (with the
fuse holder) to the POSITIVE post, and the
BROWN wire will connect to the NEGATIVE
post.
C. Continue with Step #11 of the RETRAX
Installation Instructions.

Special notes on installing PowerTRAX cover:
The Electric cover has no lock assembly.
Cover will not move out of the canister at this point of the installation. On
Driver’s side hold cover up slightly, insert bearings of rolling cover into the
channel of the rail. Line up rail tabs to canister and attach with 2-10x32
screws. Follow the same directions on the passenger side. After connecting
the electrical wiring the motor will power up.
