  • Custom Fit
  • 4 Flat
  • Trailer Hitch Wiring
  • Tekonsha
  • Powered Converter

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom wiring harness. T-One connector plugs directly into existing wiring. Powered ModuLite reduces strain on wiring system.

  • Provides a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights
    • Compatible with 5-pole, 6-pole and 7-pole adapters (sold separately)
  • Connects quickly and easily
    • Locate connection points behind tail lights
    • Plug in T-connector
    • Run hot lead to car battery

    • Powered module connects directly to battery to avoid overloading vehicle's electrical system
  • Constructed of 16-gauge bonded wire
  • Comes with dust cap for 4-way flat connector

    • Tail lights: 7.5 amps per circuit
  • 1-Year limited warranty


Installation

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side tail lights. You will have to remove the tail light assemblies to access this harness.


T-One Connection Location Points Behind Tail Lights

Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead up to your car battery. Connect the lead to the included fuse holder, and then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery and insert the provided fuse.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way flat connector will be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket (sold separately) is recommended to keep the connector secure.


It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.


ModuLite Powered Tail Light Converter

A ModuLite power module is built into this T-One connector. Because most trailers run on a two-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on one wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your vehicle's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of your trailer. This power module functions as a tail light converter to combine the brake and turn signal functions of your automobile so that they run on one wire to properly activate your trailer's tail lights. Note: This will not affect how the tail lights on your vehicle operate.


With a ModuLite, your trailer's lights will be powered without overloading your vehicle's electrical system. Because the module draws power directly from your car's battery and bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.

Seems to be exactly what I needed for my 2022 Sorento.
It took me roughly 3 hours to install and was a pretty simple task.
The only instruction issue I had was with taillight removal. After removing 10mm screws you need to use a flat plastic spatchula or body tool to pry the bottom half of the taillight assembly towards the rear end of the car. There's 2 mounting studs there that prevent you from removing the taillight assembly.
Other than that, route your wire forward to the battery by removing the underside panels and it's a piece of cake.

Ive pulled several trailers since installing the wiring and everything is working great. Ive even travelled through a massive snow storm with slush and ice buildup under the car and in the wheel wells. My wiring remains intact and undamaged.

Item #HM48595 does not let Item #TK26FR be mounted you should only send items in an order if they will fit each other.
Call and you told to return item but I had to pay freight of over $x for an item that cost $x dollars. ordered a different mounting bracket and you wanted to charge me freight even if it was your fault that I had to order a different item.
Went to U-Haul bought bracket.
Very poor costumer service for a mistake that you made not me. You are supposed to know what fits with what not the costumer.
Will never again buy from etrailer looks like they only want to sell even if the items don't fit each other.

While most brackets will fit multiple harnesses, unfortunately this particular bracket is only designed to fit other Hopkins products. I apologize that our system was not able to catch that they are not compatible. We are working towards a more sophisticated system that can better assist all of us in our product compatibility.

After Amazon sent me 2 different kits that were both incorrect, I placed my order with etrailer and got exactly what I needed for my SUV. The kit was complete and spot on workmanship!



by:

Trailer hitch and harness installed easily as promised and have had no issues as of yet, one year later. We installed in my daughters SUV to move her from WI to Texas.



by:

Great product! Fits and works exactly as described! Took me about 3 hours to install on my Kia Sorento Hybrid! I had to get this kit after the dealership refused to let me order the OEM one.



by:
2021 Kia Sorento

installed myself ,Kia had recall on their hitches and wiring, so they had to look at mine. It passed inspection with no issues.

2024 Kia Sorento

I love how easy e-trailer makes the installation process of the products they sell by providing a how-to video and explaining it in detail. Installed this plug and play connector on my 2024 Kia Sorento Hybrid with ease! Great product and service!

2023 Kia Sorento

I fist purchased a harness on Amazon that said it would work, but it did not fit my 2023 Kia Sorento Hybrid. After that I went to etrailer and gave them a try. The harness and tow-bar arrived on time and the video was really helpful when I installed the harness. It worked great once I got it in. It was a little challenging to install, but that was noted on their site when I purchased it. Not really bad, just a bit more work than others I have installed in the past. Overall, it was exactly as advertised and I would highly recommend buying from etrailer again. Their parts fit and work as advertised, they have great installation videos, and their customer support is levels above Amazon and most other online stores. Very professional and well run company!



by:

Worked twice intermittently. Had to order direct through the dealer and pay $250 after this waste of time and money.



by:

Although this was the wrong harness (my fault), the delivery time was great and the customer service to return the item was top notch. I will surely be purchasing more items from this company in the future.



by:

Pkg arrived with quite a bit of carton damage. Have not yet inspected the hitch and wiring.

Kia Sorento

NOte that for the 2022 kia Sorento plug0-in hybrid the rear-mounted battery makes this both easy and hard: the wirign is very short to mount onm the hitch below, but the battery sits in a weather proof well, which you need to wire through, there is a square tube below with plastic grommet, going through that you can keep it weather proof and the square framing tube has access holes a couple of inches away from under the car so then no drilling is needed, just slightly tricky to fish it out to start with. but then you are right next to the hitch frame and can route it to anywhere you want to place the connector (I used a L-bracket, which seems to hold it in place very nicely, adding some grease to the connector, has also kept it good and avoided corrosion with multiple uses.)



by:

Just Ok Installed by myself in 3hrs wish +wire had protection around it. Hard to do when not on a lift.



by:
2022 Kia Sorento

This wiring harness fit my Kia Sorento perfect. Plug and play removed the tail lights plugged in the adaptors and ran the wires. Plugged the wires into the tester to check proper operation. Made the job so much easier and made the installation quicker. The perfect complement to make it a professional looking job.



by:

great fit ez to install



by:

Easy to find the correct part on the website and order but the install was a little different only because I have a hybrid so battery is in back so you don’t have to navigate the power cable through the firewall or anything like that. Major plus!



by:

I gave them my new address, but they put my old address on pkg, so it took a week longer to get the part.



by:

good instructions for installation little hard running the power cable to the battery on the ground but working well



by:

Problem free



by:

This made everything so quick and easy. Do yourself a favor next time, just order the harness and save a ton of time and frustration.



by:

Works great



by:
2022 Kia Sorento

The product fits and seems to work, but the instructions are terrible and missing a bunch of really important steps. This product needs an install video.

I think it’s a great product

exactly what i needed

Good directions and easy installation . . works great!!

  • Recommended Plug-In Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2021 Kia Sorento All Models
    The correct trailer wiring harness for a 2021 Kia Sorento is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # TK26FR. This is a completely plug-in play kit with no splicing into the vehicle required. It simply plugs in behind the tail lights and provides you with a standard trailer connector for towing. If you don't already have a trailer hitch picked out, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C34ER.

  • How Do I Tell if I Have a Factory Tow Package on My 2022 Kia Sorento?
    In order to tell if you have a factory tow package on your 2022 Kia Sorento, there will be tail light wiring connectors behind the rear driver's side tire. This will be on the exterior of the frame rail. In order to see these ports, you will have to remove the underbody cover in order to expose those connectors. I went ahead and attached a photo of what these connectors look like on a 2020 model. Your will look very similar. If you discover that you do not have the factory tow package,...

    The Curt # C34ER is designed to fit all versions of Kia Sorento in the 2022 model year, it will have no problem fitting your PHEV model in SX-Prestige trim. We haven't had the opportunity to install one of these on a 2022 as of yet, but I did include an install video we did on a 2021 for you to check out.

Instead, you'll need to use the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # TK26FR with an adapter such as the 4 to 7-Way with 4-Way Adapter part # ETBC7L.

  • What Trailer Hitch do You Recommend for a 2022 Kia Sorento?
    For a great hitch that is compatible with your 2022 Kia Sorrento, I recommend the Curt Hitch - 2" # C34ER. Not only does the Curt hitch provide you with the highest tongue weight capacity and towing weight capacity we offer for your vehicle (600 tongue weight and 4,000 trailer weight), it also comes with a higher quality coating than the coating on other hitches. If you planning on towing with your hitch, I recommend a ball mount/ball like the ones included with the Curt Towing Starter...

  • Does Power Need to be Run to a 4 Flat and 7 Way on a 2022 Kia Sorento?
    To get everything working properly on your 2022 Kia Sorento, the power wire for both the Tekonsha # TK26FR and # ETBC7L will need to be run to the battery. This is due to the tail lights not getting enough power to get the lights on the trailer working properly. As the # ETBC7L piggybacks off of the 4 Flat on the # TK26FR, it will require both power sources. If you are going with the # ETBC7L, I can highly recommend the Curt Echo Brake Controller # C51180. This is an easy to use and set...

  • Trailer Wiring for 2021 Kia Sorento

  • Was The Tekonsha 4-Way Wiring Harnesses One Which Had Fire Issues On a 2023 Kia Sorento Hybrid?
    I have not heard of the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK26FR having a fire issue with your 2023 Kia Sorento Hybrid. Tekonsha has always had the better modules which are not as susceptible to water damage. I do believe the issues the Sorento had were with units connecting to factory tow package wiring. This Tekonsha connects in line of the tail lights.

For a 4 flat wiring harness you can use the # TK26FR. As far as install, I would call all of this medium difficulty, about 6 out of 10, with 10 being the most difficult.

    To add a 2" hitch to your 2023 Kia Sorento, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C34ER. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crosstube is completely concealed behind the rear bumper. This leaves only the 2" receiver exposed, which not only helps with ground clearance but it also looks better. I have attached a couple of pictures below, along with an installation video, so you can see what this hitch will look like...
