Expert Answers about Honda Odyssey


  • Parts Needed to Convert 4-Pole Connector to 7-Way For Using Brake Controller on 2012 Honda Odyssey
  • With trailer wiring more wires allow more functions. Each wire on your current 4-pole flat trailer connector carries a lighting function. Stop and turn lights are carried on one wire for each side of the trailer (yellow for left and green for right) and the running lights are carried on the brown wire. The 4th wire, the white one, is ground and this ground connection must be solidly made to the vehicle's metalwork for any function to work properly. So this setup gives you 3 functions: stop,...

  • Reccommended Roof Rack System For A 2008 Honda Odyssey
  • When it comes to installing a roof rack system on your 2008 Honda Odyssey, I recommend The Rhino Rack Roof Bar System this kit includes: Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars-Aluminum-Black-46 inches Long - Qty 2 # RRVA118B-2 Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs Qty 4 # RRSX100 This system has a sleek, low-profile and has a elliptical crossbar shape that helps to create an extremely aerodynamic system.

  • Are Replacement Bolts Available for the Curt Cargo Carrier?
  • The 24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # C18152 does not have replacement hardware available but it just uses 3 M12 x 75mm hex bolts which you can find in any local hardware store. Since you're needing to also drill out the hole, you'd need to use a 1/2" bit # PTW8589. This will make the hole slightly larger since metric and imperial aren't 1:1, but its close enough to not be super noticeable.

  • What Parts Are Needed To Tow A 1997 Honda Civic With A RV
  • Since you already have the tow bar the other items you will need are the base plates, safety cables, and light kit to tow your vehicle behind a RV. If your tow bar does not have the support bar that goes from side to side and attaches to the two tow bar arms you will need to use the Roadmaster Quick Disconnect Tow Bar Base Assembly # 910021-00. This will attach to the tow bar and connect the tow bar to the base plates on your vehicle. The base plate kit you will need for your 1997 Honda...

  • Parts Needed For Installing an Electric Trailer Brake Controller On a 2023 Honda Odyssey
  • First you will need the 4-Way # C56382 wiring harness if your 2023 Honda Odyssey does not already have a 4-way. This will connect to the 7-Way Kit # ETBC7 which includes the wiring needed for running a charge line as well as installing a brake controller. I recommend installing the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED52VR as it uses a small dash mounted control knob rather than a large control box. This controller is also proportional so there is less need to adjust the controller...

  • Location Of Red, Hot Lead Wire Routing To Battery On A 2007 Honda Odyssey
  • The red wire on The Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness # HM11143115 is routed under the car and needs to feed out of the electrical junction box area across the vehicle to the driver side. Route the red power feed wire out of the lower rear driver side then along the driver side of the vehicle to the vehicle battery. Then secure the red wire along the underside of the vehicle with the provided ny-ties. Make sure to route the wire being careful to avoid any hot pipes, heat shields,...

  • Hitch, Wiring and Ball Mount to Equip 2003 Honda Odyssey and 2015 Toyota Prius for Towing
  • We can help you get your two vehicles, the 2003 Honda Odyssey and the 2015 Toyota Prius, ready to tow your Yakima Rack-and-Roll trailer, whether it is the 66-inch model # Y08106 or the 78-inch model # Y08107. Let's start with hitches for the cars. For your 2003 Honda Odyssey both 2-inch and 1-1/4-inch hitches are offered. To keep things simple and compatible with the Prius I suggest the 1-1/4-inch Class II hitch # C12031 which offers no-drill installation; it comes with all required...

  • Recommended 4 Bike Rack for 2015 Honda Odyssey
  • I'll start off by saying that the only way you will be able to carry 4 bikes on your 2015 Honda Odyssey is if you've got a 2" trailer hitch like the etrailer # e98862; as long as you've got a hitch, you're well on your way. There currently aren't any trunk mounted bike racks that will carry 4 bikes. To carry 4 bikes I recommend using the Curt Platform Tilting Bike Rack # C18087 which is made from steel and covered with a heavy powder coating, so it will provide great protection from the...

  • Troubleshooting Wiring Harness Issues On A 2012 Honda Odyssey
  • With both indicators flashing weakly it sounds that there could be a ground wire problem. You will want to locate the ground wire and make sure that it is secured tightly to a paint and debris free surface, on both your trailer and vehicle. You can also remove it completely and clear the area that is is connected to with sandpaper or steel wool to make sure there is not anything built up on the surface of the trailer frame where the wire is grounded. If that doesn't work I would use...

  • Suspension Enhancement Options for a 2016 Honda Odyssey
  • The suspension enhancement options for your 2016 Honda Odyssey are only designed for the rear of the vehicle since that's typically where a lot of weight will be loaded into the vehicle. If you're interested in adding something to your van then here are your options: Timbren Jounce-Style Springs - # THROD2 Air Lift Air Bags - # AL60815 The Timbren kit is nice because once installed there is zero maintenance, while the Air Lift kit does require maintenance (checking the lines and air bags...

  • Recommended Class III Hitch, Wiring & Related Towing Parts for 2016 Honda Odyssey
  • The 2011 through 2016 model years of the popular Honda Odyssey are all part of the same 4th generation of this vehicle so the hitch installation process on a 2015 shown in our video will be essentially identical on your 2016. That install video is linked for you. I recommend Draw-Tite Class III hitch # 75270 for its no-drill installation and substantial tongue weight capacity - 675-lbs. For a 4-pole wiring harness you can use part # 118521 from Tekonsha, which is a simple plug-in type...

  • Parts Needed To Convert 4-Pin Flat Connector To 7-Pin Blade Connection On 2018 Honda Odyssey
  • With your 2018 Honda Odyssey already having a 4-pin flat connector you will need the 7-Way Kit # ETBC7. This will allow you to connect to your 4-way flat and provides the additional wiring for a charge line and brake controller. For a brake controller I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty # RED52VR as it uses a small dash mounted control knob which allows for a much cleaner appearance and easy adjustability. I have linked a install video for the 7-way kit on a 2014 Odyssey below for you...

With this crossbar you will also need Legs # RRRLT600, Leg Spacers # RRQMVA10, and Roof Tracks # RRRTV168. Drilling is required, but it is still a fairly simple installation process.

  • Other Than a Hitch What Parts Are Needed To Tow a Trailer With a 2008 Honda Odyssey
  • Yes, in addition to a hitch, you will need a ball mount, ball and trailer wiring. I will explain what the parts are and what they do, then I will include some recommendations of parts for your 2008 Honda Odyssey. A ball mount slides into the receiver, or square opening in the hitch. They are available in different heights so that depending on how tall the vehicle is and how tall the trailer is, a ball mount can be selected that will keep the whole rig level. Balls are available in different...

  • Towing a 2006 Honda Odyssey Behind a Motorhome
  • If a vehicle is able to be flat towed then this is the best way to pull it beind a motorhome. You don't need to worry about hauling a trailer or tow dolly around or finding a place to store it when you're not towing. In order to flat tow your 2006 Honda Odyssey you need a tow bar, base plate kit, a lighting solution, braking system, and probably a high-low adapter. The base plate kits are custom designed to fit your vehicle. I recommend the Demco Classic, part # DM9518185, for your Odyssey...
