• Will Curt Easy Mount Bracket # C58000 Fit T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118286
• Because the rear fascia design near where the receiver tube would sit doesn't have any obstructions, the Curt # C58000 Easy Mount trailer connector bracket would be a great choice for your 2017 Honda Pilot. The bracket would be compatible with the # 118286 trailer connector you mentioned. The bracket also has a spot for a 4-pole connector to mount to, but you could leave that portion off and the bracket would still work very well.

• Best Bike Rack That Can Carry 2 Or 4 Bikes
• There is a 2 Bike version of the Saris Freedom 4 # SA4412B and I've included a video of me using it! You can either get the 2 bike version or the 4 bike version, one cannot convert into the other. If you're looking to have a 2 bike rack that can turn into a 4 bike rack I would recommend getting the Kuat NV 2.0 Base # BA12B and get the 2 bike add on # BA02B if you wanted to carry 4 bikes! The add-on can be taken off just as easy as it was put on so your not stuck with only a 2 or 4 bike...

• Will The DeeZee Specialty Series Trailer Tongue Tool Box Hold Propane Tanks
• I have a solution for you, but since you require a minimum of 12" x 24" to store these propane tanks, I don't believe that the DeeZee Specialty Series # DZ91717P is going to work for you since it's only 18" wide at the front of the box. I think the best solution to store your propane tanks is going to be the UWS A-Frame Trailer Toolbox # UWS01039 which has 21" of internal height and 24" at the front in order to provide you with sufficient room to store multiple propane tanks. This is an...

• Parts Needed to Install a 7-Way on a 2011 Honda Pilot with a 4-Way
• If you only need taillight functions (no trailer brakes), all you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way would be the # 37185 which is a simple 4-way to 7-way converter. If you want a fully functional 7-way at the rear of your 2011 Honda Pilot you would need to go with the # 118288 instead. This comes with some components you would already have, but this is the only way this is offered.

• Recommended Roof Rack for Hullavator and Kayak Carrier on 2019 Honda Pilot
• Thank you for all of the information! While you are able to use the Hullavator # TH898 with your setup as far as weight goes, this kayak carrier does require the crossbars to stick out 4" - 8" out past the roof rack feet. Since the Thule SquareBars have a limited amount of space under them for the feet you can only use the 53" Bars # TH712400 but this wouldn't give you the required spacing for the Hullavator. I recommend using the Yakima 60" JetStream Crossbar # Y00426 instead with the...

We did an installation video on this that does a really good job of showing how easy this installation process is that I've gone ahead and linked that to this answer.

• Recommended 4-Way Flat And 7-Way Blade Trailer Wiring Harnesses For a 2021 Honda Pilot

The one you choose will depend on what trailers you intend to haul. I have linked installation videos for both of these below so that you can see what is involved with connecting them. The 4-way harness is all you need if you are only going to be pulling small trailers that do not use electric trailer brakes or have...

• Where Is The Fuse For The Brake Controller On My 2014 Honda Pilot?
• The fuse for the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 on your 2014 Honda Pilot is located in the engine compartment. It is in the sub fuse box which is near the battery. Fuse number 14 needs to be a 20 amp fuse that sends power to the brake controller. If you are still having issues getting power to the controller be sure to check the wiring connectors to ensure that a wire hasn't pushed out of its connector or had a prong broken off inside the connector.

• Lower Priced Rear Suspension Enhancement for 2006 Honda Pilot
• The most economically priced suspension enhancement kit we offer for your 2006 Honda Pilot is the Firestone Coil Rite kit part # F4179. This will do a great job at removing the sag and also doesn't break the bank. It's pretty easy to install too as the bags install by slipping into the rear coils.

• Location and Color of Brake Stoplight Switch on 2008 Honda Pilot
• According to my research, the stop light switch you need is white and black striped. Keep in mind that wiring by function, rather than wire color, is recommended because wire color is not always consistent, even among identical vehicles of the same model year. Please confirm your connection by using a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 on the wire you intend to tap the brake controller into. The correct circuit will only show power when the brake pedal is pressed, and not at any other...

• Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring on 2015 Honda Pilot
• It sounds like the issue is with a ground connection, a terminal connection, or one of the relays. I recommend starting with the relays and the best way to determine if one is bad is to replace it with one you know works. Once you have determined the relays are good, then I recommend checking the plug connections on your harness. Each connection should be clean of corrosion and debris and have dielectric grease like # 11755 to keep moisture and debris out. Then if you are still lacking...

• Is a 4-Way Harness Needed if My 2004 Honda Pilot Already has a Factory Installed 4-Way Connector
• Ordinarily, you would need three components to complete a brake controller and trailer wiring set up on a 2004 Honda Pilot. The brake controller, the 7 and 4 Way Installation Kit, # ETBC7, and wiring harness 43105 or 118336. If you already have a 4-Way connection at the rear of the vehicle, you should only need the brake controller and the ETBC7 kit. You have to make sure your 4-Way connection you have currently on the vehicle is functional (it is wired and ready to use). The ETBC7 kit...

• Can I Use the Curt Friction Sway Control on an R-Pod Trailer without a Weight Distribution Hitch
• Yes. You can install the Curt Friction Sway Control # 17200 on your R-pod to use without a weight distribution hitch; you'll also need the # RP26003 to attach the ball to the ball mount. This will do a great job of providing sway control without needing a weight distributing hitch. When it comes to a brake controller, the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 is a great choice. The P3 is a proportional brake controller that provides responsive braking for your trailer and is one of our most popular...

• Distance From HItch Pin Hole To Back Of Receiver On etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver
• The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the receiver on the # e98840 is 3-1/2". This means you will be able to use your VelociRAX bike rack with the hitch on your 2020 Honda Pilot. I also asked VelociRAX about this and the only reason they include that measurement is to make sure the hole in the shank can line up with the hitch pin hole in the receiver. Something like a Class I hitch might have a stop in it to prevent you from inserting the bike rack all the way....

• Hardware for Curt HItch # 13328
• The only hardware required are bolts and washers which are supplied with your Curt Hitch # 13328. If you need replacement hardware you can order our kit # RHK. I have added a link below for that item. Be sure to fill in your hitch brand and model number. Some customers find the the bolts thread smoother if they use a 1/2" Tube Brush # 814092 first. I have included a link to the hitch and brush.
