If you're in a pinch and need to hotwire your Chevy Tahoe, here's how to do it. First, locate the ignition switch. This is usually on the steering column, but it may also be on the dash. Once you've found the ignition switch, pry off the cover. Under the cover, you'll see a series of wires. The wire you need to hotwire the Tahoe is the one that's labelled ACC.
Next, locate the positive terminal on the Tahoe's battery. Once you've found it, attach the ACC wire to the positive terminal. Then, touch the other end of the ACC wire to the metal part of the Tahoe's steering column. If the Tahoe has an automatic transmission, also touch the ACC wire to the RUN terminal on the transmission's shift lever.
Now, try starting the Tahoe. If it starts, quickly remove the ACC wire from the steering column before it touches any other metal. If the Tahoe doesn't start, double-check that the ACC wire is touching the correct terminals.
